The development is in a central business district that is generally quiet and relatively clean. There is a fire station next door but they do turn their sirens off at night thankfully.

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

When I have had a couple of small issues the team has sorted the out quickly.

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

The rent was already very high and they are raising it by over £100 this year which is frankly ridiculous.

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

Very central and close to major transport (bus, trains). Can get busy outside though during peak communiting hours. A small selection of shops around its vicinity, but it not too far from others.

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

Very quickly and professionally. Had some issues within the flat that they prioritized to resolve. Though it took time, you can see the effort to fix it as soon as possible

Real council tax banding wasn't available beforehand.

Living in my local area has both pros and cons. On the positive side, there’s a good range of local shops and restaurants, including a few independent cafes and a decent supermarket within walking distance. The open spaces nearby are well-maintained and great for walks or relaxing on weekends. Transport links are generally convenient — buses run frequently and the train station is just a short walk away. However, traffic congestion during rush hour can be frustrating, and occasional delays in public transport are a common issue. My street is relatively quiet and safe, but parking can be a challenge, especially in the evenings. Bin collections are regular, though sometimes recycling isn’t picked up on time. There’s very little anti-social behaviour, and while some traffic noise exists during peak times, it’s not overwhelming. Overall, it’s a pleasant place to live with room for improvement.

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

Building management has generally responded promptly to urgent issues, such as repairs or safety concerns, but can be slower and less communicative when it comes to non-urgent matters or routine maintenance updates.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is that some of the apartments can experience occasional noise from nearby construction or traffic during peak hours, which isn’t noticeable during a short viewing. Also, while the building is very secure, parcel delivery can sometimes be a bit inconsistent, so I’d recommend setting up a reliable parcel locker or collection option if you receive frequent deliveries. A helpful tip for new neighbours: get to know the building management team early—they’re approachable and knowing who to contact makes resolving any issues much quicker.

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

Nothing to be honest. Everything is pretty much at face value
