We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

Building manager is not professional. Live here 9 month and was not been able to get parking permit. He just choose not to sell it to me. Flat s modern but if u need maintenance, there is no way you can get someone to even come and have a look. You also have to pay for heating communal areas which are too hot in winter and impossible breath in summer.

Worst building&property management, I have been living here for 3 years and we have had problems since day 1. Not professional at all and very rude staff. There are always maintenance issues that take ages to resolve. The lifts are constantly not working in a 10-floor building.

The flat is alright for a couple despite being small. It is well organised for day to day living. Management is the worst type you can hope to get. For them you are a number on a spreadsheet and they will bully tenants continuously to do what they want to do regardless of your rights.

Management is appalling, in 2017 people complained to the MP about dampand hazards, in 2021 over 20 tenants complained including me. DAMP AND MOULD is alot here. Not worth the torture for the price which they want payment via direct debit also for less interactions with you. I suffer from singificant mould sickness because of flooding in the building that I cant control. I have complained and no one has done a thing for over a year. There are also pest issues as bins and building are rarely cleaned.

The flat is fine although not cheap. You can see it was built with cheap materials as things tend to ruin easily. None of the flats has a balcony and windows can't really be opened except for few centimeters. It's not well insulated making a very hot environment in summer and fairly cold in winter (with high heating bill). Management is poor, all you can do is that things don't get broken, because if they do they will stay broken. Communal areas tend to get dirty quite easily and cleaning is not done often enough for a building of 98 flats. We had our waste areas almost completely full of abandoned furniture for almost a year and they wouldn't do anything about it, lift is more often broken and working and finally a lot of light bulbs got broken and never replaced.
