X1 Endeavour House, M5

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

The area has everything I need, it’s close to MediaCityUK, it’s on a tram stop, I can walk to Manchester quickly, it has nice walking routes, it’s a 15-minute walk from White City Retail Park, has a Tesco Express next door, and has a cheap local pub. One of the downsides, is that it feels like the area is slowly getting rundown and uncared for. Paths have weeds and litter everywhere. Transport for Greater Manchester are also in dire need of fixing their tram tracks as the journey to town is slow, due to 5mph speed restrictions at almost every corner.

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

I have been in contact with the company to get meter readings for my electric and water, but it took them over a week to respond. I have flagged on the inventory that there are things wrong with the flat, like broken blinds etc, but not had a response.

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

That the building is to be covered up for almost a year in scaffolding, losing access to my balcony, and be unable to open my balcony door- despite applications going in for this to the council in September 2024.
