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

Very close the the Brighton main station, and Sainsbury's. Also very close the the bus station. London Road however is not my favourite place.

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

Very prompt responses. Easy to reach 3ven visa WhatsApp.

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

Nothing worth mentioning in this box. Everything is as expected.

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

The local area is great, really good proximity to the station. I commute to London twice a week so this has been a big factor for me! London road has everything you need, and Preston Park is only a short walk away so there is good access to shops and green space.

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

I have not raised any issues of my own but have experienced some building-wide hot water shortages. I think these have all been handled relatively well and sorted promptly. Given how frequent these are, it might be worth having a 24/7 monitor of the boiler that alerts staff directly so the issue can be resolved quickly.

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

I only recently joined the WhatsApp group despite moving in a while ago - wish I had known about this sooner! It’s super useful and a very friendly community.

Manager response

We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the design of the development and making good use of our communal spaces, roof terraces, and gym. It’s especially great to know that the workspaces have supported your routine and that our location has made commuting to London convenient for you. We’re also pleased that you’ve found our community welcoming, particularly through the residents’ WhatsApp group. Creating a friendly and connected environment is something we truly value, so it’s lovely to hear this has enhanced your experience. Thank you as well for your thoughtful feedback regarding the hot water outages and the suggestion of a 24/7 boiler monitoring system. We really appreciate insights like yours, as they help us identify ways to improve our service and responsiveness for all residents. It’s wonderful to know you’ve had positive experiences with our team and would recommend us. Thank you again for being part of the York & Elder community. Warm regards, Your York & Elder Community Team

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

The gym is very modern and the terraces are incredible! The team are always happy to help and the co-working area is a bonus! Murdell has been a Godsend and super helpful in settling me in by hanging my pictures and curtains. Location is so central. Could not recommend living here enough.

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

Super quick. No issues at all and really impressed. Good system too.

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

I can't actually think of anything at the moment I am really happy.

Manager response

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

Lots of local amenities, cafes, shops, etc. it's also close to the station, but far enough from the centre to not be hit by really bad traffic. Only bad thing really is parking and noise - but that's no surprise to anyone who choses this area.

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

Very quickly, really appreciate the WhatsApp channels and online portal for requests.

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

Noisy neighbours sometimes can be an issue here, the bass blasts through the walls. Also the pigeon situation is slightly out of control, but it's moving in the right direction.

Manager response

Dear Ben, Thank you for your fantastic review and for sharing such detailed feedback about your experience with us. We're delighted to hear that you've been enjoying both the quality of your home and the service provided by our team. Your kind words mean a great deal, and we'll be sure to pass on your shout-outs to Dan, Jess, Lucy, and Murdell. They are all passionate about creating the best possible experience for our residents, and it's wonderful to see their efforts recognised. It's great to know that the flexibility we've been able to offer, from accommodating pets and personalising your apartment to storing furniture and pigeon-proofing your terrace, has made a positive difference. We believe that helping residents truly make their apartment feel like home is an important part of what we do. We're also pleased that you're making the most of our amenities, including the gym, co-working space, café, and resident lounge areas. Creating convenient spaces that support both work and leisure is something we're proud of. Thank you as well for your honest feedback regarding parking, occasional neighbour noise, and the local pigeon population. We appreciate you highlighting these points and are encouraged that you've noticed improvements in the measures we've put in place. Resident feedback helps us continue to enhance the living experience for everyone. It's especially rewarding to hear that our maintenance response times, online portal, and WhatsApp communication channels have been helpful and effective.
