An amazing place to rent, convenient and vibrant. Conveniently located in the heart of birmingham with easy access to local bars and restaurants and the best of the best shopping is available at your doorstep. The apartments are modern and well insulated and there is little or no noise from neighbouring residents. The bin area is conveniently located in the lobby and is open 24/7 and there is a co-co located on site for those emergencies.

At present we have not had any problems which are to be reported, its been just over a month and everything seems to be smooth sailing.

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

Parking is a very big issue. I wish parking was included within the rental price, the only options are underground parking which is currently an 8-12 week wait alternatively you need to apply for an annual permit.

The area in which this outstanding development is located is without a doubt the one reason why you should move here tomorrow. The Whitmore Collection is perfectly positioned in the heart of the city of Birmingham, the Jewellery Quarter. This area is vibrant, young and stunning. I’m in love with the marvellous water canals, with the countless choices of restaurants and bars as well as the modern and immaculate architecture. Everything is within walking distance, including the enchanted Brindleyplace, which is exactly what I wanted.

At risk of sounding like a broken record, I'm going to once again praise the neighbourhood. Safe, full of amenities, lively and clean. In short, extraordinarily charming.

What is the best feature of your home:

I genuinely didn't expect the development to be located in such a strategically extraordinary area. There is an infinite amount of amenities within walking distance. My absolute favourite has to be the enviable canals.

Living at York & Elder means I don't always have to drive as local transport links so close by makes everywhere accessible!

Walking distance to Central/Queen Station and the subway. Shared security with the Barclay campus is great.

The management team is helpful and responsive. The maintenance request through the online portal is simple. I appreciate that they have an inspection done before move-out day so I know if the inventory condition is good enough.

Bin room - too many residents, so it's hard to have everyone keep the bin room tidy. I know the mgmt team had put in a lot of time to make it look better.
