Bad management, if any at all.

Linpeh (Tenant)

I've been with them for 1.5 years and their lettings 'manager' was the worst I've ever had the displeasure/misfortune to deal with. She's got a lot of nerve patronising and arguing with an already-unhappy ex-tenant. Had the audacity to tell me they didn't have to release me from my contract. Used 'COVID' as her own excuse for everything, but hey, if you had to move out early due to change of circumstances beyond your control (because of the same 'COVID'), you get threatened like this. Didn't matter if you've already informed them of your situation more than 2 months earlier and they agreed to a replacement tenant (which was on the contract as well; i.e. if you find a replacement tenant, you won't be liable for the property after they take over). They also never contact you or give you any breakdowns when they take your money. Even after you asked them not-so-nicely. Multiple times, over a period of time. But they've always got a bunch of invoices from cleaning companies to justify their dodginess at the end of your tenancy. Also, it took one second for them to take your money, but 14 bloody days for them to return your money (and NOT in full). Of course, because of 'COVID', as usual. While it's basic etiquette/common courtesy to let someone know, 'hey, I'm taking your money' (on their website they also said their deposit team would contact you if there were any deductions after your tenancy ended), this 'manager' insisted otherwise. Not surprising at all, I guess, from someone as unprofessional as her. It's no wonder most of their staff are so disorganised. Bad management, if any at all. Last but not least, it's laughable how they think they can hide all the negative reviews on Google.

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

Great location despite poor management.

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

I wish I had taken photos everywhere before I moved in and be way more careful with the dodgy move-in inventory.

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

I liked the property in general, but the flat would look much better if it had yellow lights, and it's not energy-efficient at all.

Do not be fooled by the fake 5-star reviews

Don't get fooled by all the fake 5-star reviews on Google. Scroll down and read the 1-star reviews and go to their Leeds City Centre reviews--those are the real ones. Their maintenance team might be great, but it's only because they're not the ones being opportunistic, patronising, and dodgy when it comes to your deposit at the end of your tenancy. That one 'manager' I corresponded with was the most unprofessional and patronising I've ever had the displeasure to deal with. Be extra careful with these unprofessionals, especially if you're a student, and more so an international student, as you're an easy target for them because they think you don't know any better. Or here's a better option: don't rent with them, at all. You've been warned.

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

Relatively quiet location close to the unis. Nothing wrong with the area.

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

Normally speedy, unless it's about meter readings or rats.

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

I wish I had read all the negative reviews and believed in them.
