Ok but not the best

John (Tenant)

Verified Resident

X1 The Terrace, L8

Aug 2024

The location and the property are good, property management is ok but not the best. Was told to pick up keys at a certain time and then told to come back later but I had nowhere to go. Dryer doesn’t work properly. We were given the wrong key to the letterbox when we moved in, the mattress was dirty. The property managers pretty much just leave you alone which is ideal.

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

Great location not too far from the city centre, there is plenty to do in the area, the biggest issue is the parking, street parking is available nearby however it is always busy

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

We have had no issues as of yet in this property aside from the delay in picking up the keys.

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

I wish I had known the dryer didn’t work properly, some of the screws are loose in the flat and some of the furniture has been broken and badly repaired.

X1 needs to help

Lauren (Tenant)

Verified Resident

X1 The Exchange, M5

Aug 2024

Nice building but lack of amenities for the price. Gym needs updating, lots of machine don’t work/broken. Only one lift - been broken for almost 3 weeks and still not fixed. Building is not disabled friendly. No open windows so gets extremely hot when it gets above 15 degrees.

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

Good access tram stops, shops. Traffic noise, building work, no parking, car smashed in car park opposite.

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

Very poorly. Leave tenants in the dark and slow at responding and fixing issues.

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

No windows and how hot it gets. Only one lift so not ideal.

Need some improvement

Edmond (Tenant)

X1 Manchester Waters, M16

Aug 2024

leaseholders are charged over £800 per quarter but are not receiving even a basic standard of care and management. To list just a few of the issues 1. Windows never cleaned 2. General lack of cleaning of communal areas 3. Poor security management – thefts occurring due to broken security doors 4. No replies from Haymarket to email and phone calls 5. Car park shutter not working for 18 months

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

convenience transport : metro link Nearby retail centre : White City But supper bad management Ridiculous slow response/ action to those residents enquiries Car park gate always damaged that super unsafe Security are nice with good responsibility to the building Bad design in balcony (seriously leeks problem)

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

We had a poor experience about seeking help from Management company, was happening in the night time , we couldn’t get into our flat due to the door lock was broken, But No one will work for that after office hours, and who will know when will this unfortunate incident happen , there should be some contingency plans for any incident that might occur during non-office hours .

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

Difficult to seek help from X1 Supper ineffective in resolving problems/issues for residents

Good build poor parking

Jonny B (Tenant)

X1 Manchester Waters, M16

Aug 2024

Design is really nice for the building however no where near the correct amount for the amount of flats and no road side parking but company allowed to use it for match days which is unfair to tenants. Security are nice people and helpful but hours are not great for tenants as doesn’t start til 1900

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

Pros - shops not too far away and variety from cheaper to expensive, Con - parking is terrible not enough spaces

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

Sent someone the first time but next 2 times we had leak didn’t come until recently

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

Limited parking and no where to park outside but allowed for football

The location is desirable, with it being close to the shopping and leisure aspects of Manchester’s City Centre

Aliyah J (Tenant)

Verified Resident

X1 Town Hall, M3

Aug 2024

The building management does a good job at keeping tenants up to date through email communication, however can be difficult to reach with issues raised by individuals. The facilities offered are a plus point to residing here, including bills in rent, pet friendly apartments and on site amenities such as a working room and gym.

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

The location is desirable, with it being close to the shopping and leisure aspects of Manchester’s City Centre. It allows for easy commuting to most areas of the region. However it can be quite noisy with a pub being located right outside our building. Another issue is relating to bin collection, as on a number of occasions there has been consecutive weeks that the communal bins have been left filled, leading to overflow and inviting vermin into the courtyard.

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

I have never personally had to raise an urgent issue, but less urgent matters have been timely and accommodating to my own schedule when resolving.

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

That some elements of the apartment weren’t functional/clean i.e broken window clasps, broken bed slats and detail cleaning being left untouched.
