Aesthetically ok but poor-quality house

H Y (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Nov 2023

While the exterior design looks nice, the overall quality of the house is quite poor. Soundproofing is abysmal, and I can hear everything from within the house and even from my neighbors. Most of the doors in the house couldn't close properly, either being too tight or loose, likely due to changes in door shape or frame. The electrical wiring is problematic as well. For instance, a simple kitchen bulb replacement became challenging because the wiring in the ceiling was damaged by some water leak. It's frustrating to see such issues in a seemingly well-designed house from the outside. The quality appears to be even worse than even those old, red-brick houses in Manchester. Regarding facilities, building management, and property management, they don't seem to apply here. As a tenant, I'm not aware of any property management activities.

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

The local shops are alright, but they cater to very basic needs. I often find myself ordering groceries online for a better selection. Unfortunately, we don't have any big parks or green spaces nearby, and the small park we do have is not well maintained, especially the tennis court, which is in extremely terrible shape. Transport links are decent because we're close to the university. On my street, things are generally good. Parking is plentiful. Bin collections are reliable and on time. Fortunately, we don't experience much anti-social behavior, and traffic noise is minimal. Overall, it's a decent area.

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

Not really.... it is what i expected, both pros and cons.

What is the best feature of your home:

Spacious rooms and a lovely garden. And I particularly love the skylights.

Excellent house,

The designing of the house is excellent. The houses look elegant and burrito from the outside and the inside. We have toilets on every floor. We have decent sizes of bedrooms and toilet and which it makes the house look even better. Also the front and back garden are big.

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

There is a park nearby we have local shops near by. It’s a peaceful place to live in. Amazing parking

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

They have responded to all the problems we have had in the past.

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

I wish I knew that there was a park right next to us

Moved into one of the newly built properties & had alot of faults with the property.

Kay T (Tenant)

Moved into one of the newly built properties & had alot of faults with the property. Had to get the contractors to rectify several faults with the property. Ongoing issue of no broadband connection for 2yrs after moving in, should of been made available & sorted before tenancy started & property was made available. The sockets were not installed in the house.

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

Local shops near, very convenient. Anti-social behaviour & break ins around area quite frequently, not good.

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

New builds look nice on the outside, but more trouble than what there worth. Prefer older houses, much better.

Great for families

Khadija (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Sept 2021

The design is good and the houses are warm. It would be better if there was more space within the homes especially if you have a big family it is important. The management is great too as buildings are very close within walking distance for convenience.

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

This area is perfect for living with a family as there's public transport, a primary school, universities, restaurants, parks and other conveniences within walking distance.

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

Neighbours can be heard sometimes if they're being loud.

They are renovating the neighbourhood and making it a better and family friendly place to live in. They are managing the building very well and making sure the area around the construction site is safe. The property management and a very up to date and you can receive help within a short amount of time.

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

Our area is very near to the town center and it makes it easier to access shops and restaurants. However, there are less shops closer to where we live.

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

They quickly take into account your complaint and make sure that the situation is sorted out.

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

The amount of traffic and loud noises outside the window
