A Well-Managed and Comfortable Place to Live

Jul 2025

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

The local area is vibrant and very well connected. There are plenty of nearby supermarkets, cafés, and restaurants within walking distance, which makes everyday living very convenient. Public transport options are excellent, with multiple bus routes and a nearby train station. The area feels safe, and there are several green spaces for walking and relaxing. Occasionally, bin collection delays happen during holidays, but it’s usually well managed. Overall, it's a pleasant and lively neighbourhood.

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

The building management team has been responsive and helpful whenever I’ve had a problem. They typically reply within a day or two and take action efficiently. In particular, Kary has been exceptionally kind and supportive—she truly goes above and beyond to help residents and makes the process feel personal and smooth.

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

One pleasant surprise was how quiet and well-maintained the building is. It’s also worth knowing that the management team is very approachable, especially Kary, who is incredibly kind and helpful. If you ever have any issues, you’re in good hands. Also, getting to know your neighbors early can make the experience even more enjoyable.

The Forum is a very well equipped building with wonderful common areas

Stavrianna G (Tenant)

The Forum, B5

Jun 2025

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

The Forum is in a superb location within short walking distance to the two main train stations, namely New Street and Moor Street. Even for slow walkers like myself it won't take more than 10 minutes. It does lack proximity to bigger super markets, only local stores are in close walking distance, but this can be sorted if one does bigger grossery shopping or gets deliveries. It is in a very vibrant area of Birmingham, next to bars and restaurants, sometimes it's true too vibrant, however this mostly happens in weekends and days off. The location is really great, the proof is that I haven't changed for the whole duration of my stay in Birmingham (six years)

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

The building management always responds to problems or issues I have raised through the years and they make sure those are get sorted in the less possible time.

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

I can't say that I came up to something that I wish I had known before, except for the fact that I'm a smoker and I didn't know that the only place to be able to smoke was out in the street, rain or shine (mostly rain and wind). So if anyone is a smoker, they should take that into consideration. Smoking is strictly forbidden in the premises, also in outer spaces. Another tip that I could give, is to be careful with how many things you accumulate, as the storage spaces are limited.

Perfectly placed for Chinatown, New Street Station and the Bullring. Private parking available in the Forum. Busy area but no noise inside the flat.

Rapid, friendly response. One of the people responsible for maintenance, Christopher, is a maintenance wizard.

If you're getting a tesco delivery, they don't tend to come up but if you ask nicely they will.
