Renaker

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

I've had leaks in my apartment for 10 years and Renaker aren't taking responsibility via their agent Zenith

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

If I had known how poorly I was going to be treated by Renaker I would not have bought. They don't give a monkeys once they sell you the apartment!

What is the best feature of your home:

Not much except the bucket on my bedroom and lounge floor!

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

The range of shops including coffee, restaurants, lunches and many more is great for quick access when you require it. Good quality as well. Handy being really close by to trams and the train. Furthermore, close to the city centre as well Parking underneath is fantastic getting to and from the flat in no time. The bin collection system is great. The traffic and noise is the main issue for me but get use to it over time.

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

Knowing where to park and unload as very confusing when first coming to the apartments. Additionally, confirming the address as my app says the wrong tower to the one I live in

What is the best feature of your home:

I would say the design of the big windows with the open view as well as the wooden flooring in the kitchen. Furthermore, the bathroom layout is really nice

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

The development is very close to the city centre and Castlefield station for the tram. There’s lots of development going on so it can feel a little like a building site.

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

The gym is small and used by two buildings; often very crowded

What is the best feature of your home:

Great views across the city from floor to ceiling windows

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

The facilities are extremely poorly ran - gym, sauna, pool - nothing is ever in working order, bas communications, bad gym management who never reply to emails from tenants and bad communications.

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

Wish I’d have know the main facilities I moved in for would never be in full use or not broken

What is the best feature of your home:

View Apart from that, the elevators need fixing and so does the dog waste all around the development

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

Fantastic location as you’re in the middle of a thriving city. Parking is horrific though as it’s about a 6 month wait to get a parking space in the building for a hefty £200 a month. Wifi is a complete lie, I was told it’s free and then once you get into your apartment you find out it’s just about strong enough to send an email. You then have to pay £20 a month for it. I’d have no problem paying that but it feels like I’ve been lied to.

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

How much of a shambles it is. So much potential. Would’ve liked to know how difficult it is to get a space for my car too.

What is the best feature of your home:

Facilities are very good. Gym, pool, shops, cafe/bar
