London Square Bermondsey, SE1

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

Bermondsey is a great area with lots of independent shops and restaurants, good food markets and green areas.

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

Very slow, and not particularly effective. And definitely not representing the owners best interests.

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

Poor design quality - shower taps that are hooked up wrong and cannot be switched due to the space left behind the tiles AND shower taps that mean you have to turn on the overhead and then the hand held to get to the bath tap!! Lack of care and intelligence when fitting secure doors to the development (that can be opened by reaching your arm through the fence!) and bin stores that are in the wrong location etc.

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

The development feels safe and will be good to see when finally complete. Goodish transport links. Very quiet!

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

Not good. Little or no follow up or speed to fix issues. They are always very pleasant but very ineffective and inefficient which is very frustrating.

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

Distance to subways. Local services Future development plans.

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

It’s a pretty good neighborhood in general, loads of shops, restaurants, pubs and grocery stores. The only thing is not too close to parks, only few small green area but I wish to have more open space.

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

No - not really. No - not really. No - not really.

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

I wish I had known that there’s an ongoing construction site outside of the property that will be high enough to block my view and sunshine.

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

Pros: - Great transport links, however these may be slightly affected by the northern line tube closure in early 2022. Meanwhile, you can walk just about anywhere you need to get to. - Bermondsey street which is a hive of energy, buzz and entertainment is a stones throw away. - Set back from the main road so no traffic noise/no anti-social behaviour noise yet. Cons: - This is still a building site so the noise can be slightly unbearable at times

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

Yes, they have responded to all of them, although some have been timely or different people have been sent out at different stages and did not know which stage had been done and which had been. The process seems like it has a lack of communication.

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

I wish I would have known about the building noise.

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

The area is amazing, a quick walk to Bermondsey Street, lots of restaurants and cafes and convenient with London Bridge Station nearby. The street itself is not as nice, but that might change once all the construction is done.

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

Relatively prompt. Could be faster at times but that seems to be down to the group of contractors required to deal with the issue, some of them being very prompt and others not as much.

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

Construction delays, I had expected the amenities to be available earlier.
