Uncle - Realstar Living

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

The local shop variety is simply ok. It's not awful but it's nothing special. You definitely have to travel a little to get to anything decent. The availability of transportation is great. Trash is ok. Could be much better though. Traffic noise isn't bad.

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

Yes they have but not always great. More like a business owner /boss from America. Your just a number.

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

That the only heating was just under floor heating. Plus the heating system seems to decrease even when nothing is being used. Also the rent requirement will always be something I rail against. You are essentially pricing poor people out of getting a place to live. It's scummy. I get the supposed logic behind it but there are better ways to operate. Even in America this practice is considered scummy.

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

The street is very safe and lots of nice shops and restaurants nearby especially being near to Hammersmith, chiswick and shepherds bush. There is also a nice park nearby which is nice to walk around. The safety of the area is good too. I just feel there are often dog poops but these tend to be managed well and cleaned up shortly.

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

Very well. We haven't lived here much though but we felt concerns were addressed well.

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

The water pressure. It seems like something affecting the whole hamlet court building. We believe it could have been improved. Hopefully, something is done to it.

Relatively quickly and solutions usually found, overall good.

I love the locality as it is very residential with tube station right outside, bus stops supermarkets, gyms, coffee shops around.

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

Uncle is a great location, lovely restaurants, bars & shops at your feet and a short, lovely walk down the river to the city centre! Only downside would be the loudness of the train & traffic - especially when windows are open

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

Not raised any issues - had one with Royal Mail which was then sorted

There’s a lot of developments going on so to bear that in mind with road works and last minute access to the building being shut
