Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The neighborhood is not safe. We had a police officer knock on our door our first week here asking about a burglary that had happened about two house away. Since then, we’ve had several incidents of car break ins, our neighbor has a security camera footage of someone breaking into her car at 1am. We’ve had our outdoor Xmas decoration stolen at 3am. Imagine living in an area where your Xmas decor gets stolen!!!

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

We wish we had known the neighborhood was unsafe as we were hoping it’d be a great place to raise our kids! We wish we had known we would end up living in a house built by gleeson with constant fear of it breaking apart someday!

What is the best feature of your home:

I suppose the fact that we have a place to call an abode which we are grateful for but it’s been a huge regret that we purchased our first home from gleeson!

Moved in October 2023. We bought a Renmore -beautiful house with amazing views, you can see for miles from our dining room table. The head scratcher has been the practicality’s of getting your car in the drive without running over the grass. The Gleeson teams from sales to site management in my opinion have been responsive and attentive. The estate is very quiet. The roads are a bit of a challenge - bit of a bumpy ride in places but the development is not yet finished.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I would say the challenge in getting into the drive, a very very small minus given how good the house is

What is the best feature of your home:

The views, the kitchen, the land and that we are in a quiet caldisac

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The area is Tyersal and you are under leeds city Council. Post code is Bradford and its been many years since tyersal was to get a leeds post code. That will not happen unfortunately. The next area is Holmewood full of thrives and ungrateful humans. It's sad and scary as you can't leave your doors open in summer as you'll have kids/teenagers stealing your hard earned items. In the 6 houses that there are there had been a house that has been burgled 2 times and attempted 3 times. I believe they sold up and left. Anti social behaviour yes.

Don't be pressured into buying and read the small print as this is what gleesons rely on to deny any of your issues

What is the best feature of your home:

It has a roof on but that needs repaired also the quality and workmanship is very poor

Theres nothing bad about the area, even though it Dalton, you don't notice the 'negatives' of Dalton

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Yes, it takes an age and front door still not right

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

More about snagging, even though we haven't found anything major, little oddities add up to a good amount of time putting them right.
