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

Lots of crime and dodgy people around the area, local shops are good but they’re always completely empty

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

They ignored them. I had a broken floor board that was cutting my feet and making them bleed and they haven’t even bothered to repair it in a year.

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

That it’s AWFUL in general, people are nice but the management is abysmal

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

Being so close to the tube station is amazing.The new facilities oppoaite us are first class and so convenient: the supermarket, gym and coffee shop are all excellent.We need more parking facilities.The traffic noise is not too bad and the anti social behaviour has got a lot better.The area feels nicer and more safe each day.

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

Yes, but they often take their time and deliver vague responses as to when things will be fixed.They take a lot of chasing constantly and don't always stick to the timeline for things to be fixed/jobs to be done.

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

Just the managing agents and service charge.Maybe as well the building needs more ventilation for the flats and better parking for tradesmen/ delivery people.

Surprisingly well located for day to day needs, but there can be the odd disruption from being on the high street

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

The building sits directly on the high street and it’s close to multiple shops, restaurants, bus stops and the station is a 7mintue walk. It is very convenient

Maintenance reports or repairs are managed effectively

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

It’s located on a busy road on the high street but still very secure.

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

Location is really great for commuting with lots of transport links close by, they also have lots of shops locally including a Tesco opposite the building which is convenient. On the negative side there seems to be lots of homeless people around the area

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

Yes they always get back to you normally they are good but struggle to communicate their efforts
