-Switch2 the hot water and heating provider is awful to deal with. Additionally, prices are fixed - paying almost £3 per day in the winter to keep the house at 23 degrees in a 1 bedroom, so imagine for 2/3+! -Service charge subject to constant increase of upwards of 5%, which excludes building insurance and ground rent (total over £7,000 a year!) (more than double for 2/3 bed apartments) -As I bought the property on resale I wasn't provided full list of functionalities for the flat. When contacting estate management for help with minor fixes by asking for original contractors they insist of being paid to provide this service (about £50) just for a quote with their secret contractor (they won't give you the name!)

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

Relatively high maintenance costs and service charge

I wish I had known about the occasional issues with the lifts before moving in. While the management and maintenance team are quick to address problems, it would have been helpful to be aware of this in advance.

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

Just recently one of the managers I was unhappy with the tone of voice they used to speak to me as if I was new to the building and I don’t know anything and don’t understand English. When I started telling them calm down I’ve been here longer than them and explained why I emailed about the work that had to be done and then they said will speak to the other manager and then get back to me. they got back to me after they went on holidays first. That was after another email I had sent since I didn’t hear anything back from them.

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

There isn’t free parking in the area or in the flats.

It's a bit on the industrial stretch of Greenford, so not a lot of options with regards to restaurants and local shops. There's a mall nearby but it's a small one with not a lot of options. There are a few coffee shops and supermarket on the property, with more stores planned to open up. I'll say this is the only downside - the location. Otherwise, once you're on the development property you're in a lovely, warm, green, modern bubble.

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

Usually promptly. I've had regular maintenance requests which have mostly been dealt with swiftly.

The Ealing Broadway station, which is my favourite yet, is about 10-12mins away (drive time) which makes for easy access to Central London and Heathrow. Definitely helps to have other transportation options in addition to the Central and Piccadilly lines nearby. The Ealing Broadway Mall also has tons of shops so like to frequent quite often.
