Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living in my local area is generally comfortable. There are several supermarkets, convenience stores, and small restaurants nearby, which makes daily life easy. Transport is fairly convenient with frequent buses and a train station within walking distance, though peak-hour traffic can be slow. The street itself is usually quiet, although sometimes noise increases on weekends.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Everyone I've met throughout my application is supporting and helpful.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The windows is really nice especially in sunny days!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The Forum B5 is located in a very convenient part of Birmingham. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and cafés within walking distance, and the city centre is only a short bus ride away. Public transport is frequent and reliable, making it easy to reach the university and major train stations. The neighbourhood feels generally safe and lively, and bin collections are regular.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Whenever I raised a question or reported a minor issue, the management team responded promptly and followed up until everything was resolved. Their friendly and efficient approach gives residents confidence that any concerns will be taken seriously.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The apartments are very well insulated, which is great for energy efficiency, but it can get quite warm in summer. Bringing a small fan can make hot days more comfortable.
