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

Living in Houlton has been a very positive experience overall. The area is peaceful, family-friendly, and feels exceptionally safe. There are plenty of green open spaces, such as parks and walking paths, which are perfect for children and outdoor activities. The community is warm and supportive, and neighbours are generally polite and considerate. Shops and supermarkets are a short drive away, and transport access to Rugby town centre is convenient. Bin collections are always on schedule, and the environment is kept very clean. Parking is easy and there is very little noise at night. I have personally never experienced anti-social behaviour in the area. Overall, Houlton is a wonderful neighbourhood for families, with a comfortable and peaceful living environment.

Building management responded quickly and professionally to every issue I reported. Aydin and Ora always ensured that repairs, checks, and follow-ups were handled without delay. Their timely communication and willingness to help made every problem easy to resolve. They were always responsive, caring, and efficient. Their professionalism and kindness are the main reasons my stay was so positive.

wish I had known earlier how supportive and responsive the management team was — especially Aydin and Ora. It would have made me feel even more confident when moving in.

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

The area we stayed was wonderful, the open areas one can walk was very delightful, specially have dogs. Overall it was a pleasant stay. The CoOp was close and the restaurant had good food. We had double parking available. There was a lot of road work and building still happening, so the house was constantly filled with dust, but we knew that. Only negative thing would be the paint used for the inside of the house. Cleaning the walls was not an option as you will remove the paint with just a single wipe. Also, the people that constantly parked on the street was very annoying because they had parking available off the street. Otherwise ,all good.

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

Issues was delt with in time, a few follow-up emails was needed in some cases but overall good.

That the paint on the walls are poor quality. Rather paint the walls yourself and just paint over it once you move out.
