Building management have been great, with quick response to any issues. Facilities contact Kuljot, is always quick to respond and support which is brilliant and reassuring.

Neighbourhood is really great, with the odd mild traffic during morning rush hour which is expected anyway.

Indifferent not as described

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

Sometimes little respect from neighbours who allow their children to run down alley ways, drop litter, rip up trees hang off the side of your house and scream. Whilst teenages smoke weed adjacent to your house... others are lovely but sadly it is getting worse and we thought we had settled on living here until retirement but not sure we can do so..

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

some never, days when first moved in with no hot water or heating... and most recently 3 weeks because your on line form did not pull through that the issue was a dish washer - I replied to the email, chased and reported again, left a voice mail and still no reply - shocking

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

Don't pick a house next to an alley way... that encourages anti social behaviour.

Manager response

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are very sorry to read about your experience and appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. It is particularly disappointing to hear about the delays you have experienced with the stair carpet repair, the ongoing dishwasher issue, and the concerns you have raised regarding the condition of the paintwork in your home. We understand how frustrating it must be to feel that your reports have not been addressed appropriately, and this is not the level of service we aim to provide. We would welcome the opportunity to investigate the issues you have highlighted and ensure that any outstanding matters are properly reviewed. Please contact me directly at maryam.bham@allsop-lm.co.uk, and I will personally look into your concerns and work with the relevant teams to establish what has happened. We are also sorry to hear that your experience of the local area has not met the expectations you had when moving into the community. While some neighbourhood matters can be outside of our direct control, we understand the impact that anti-social behaviour can have on residents' enjoyment of their home. Thank you again for your feedback. We take all comments seriously and would value the opportunity to discuss your concerns further and restore your confidence in our service.

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

Willow house is in a very nice, area - although development is still ongoing there a number local shops and resturants within easy reach.

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

Yes all queries have been answered in timely fashion.

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

Only that, as of the time of writing the closest shops are on the next estate over (Shenley Brook End) although it's a short walk and an even shorter drive so it's really a massive issue.

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

The location is very good, close to a lot of shops within walking and riving distance. We just wish that more local businesses would move in soon. It would be lovely to have a cafe within 5 mins walks

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

The building management response very quickly and with a lot of patience.

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

Not really. Most of the info we need were on the pack and anything we don't need was good surprises anyway

Manager response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you’re enjoying the design of your home and that the move-in process was smooth. It’s also great to know the team has been responsive and supportive while helping to resolve the dishwasher issue; thank you for your patience while this is being addressed. Thank you again for your recommendation and for being part of the community.

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

It's a great area with lots of amenities and walks and the city centre isn't too far away. The parking is great with 2 spaces per home and access to the back garden

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

The management has been great, especially our property manager, Mustafa Dar. He has been able to solve any issues that arise for us and is approachable and friendly

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

I wish we knew more about information on the bills and we wish the garden was a bit bigger but overall a great property!
