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

Would be a decent enough place to live if there was any return for the service charge. No security and no maintenance. Currently targeted by thieves on a daily basis who can just walk into the building. Has been like this for weeks and SMG couldn’t care less. Estate was supposed to be refreshed after a decade and hasn’t happened. Lifts have never worked properly.

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

They don’t respond. They send you emails, but don’t actually do anything that involves physical work

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

That you will have to pay service charges and ground rent on an ongoing basis, but will then have to pay for any work that needs doing on the estate yourself as SNG will just take the money and run

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

Living in Faber Green, Northolt, has both good and bad aspects. The area has a limited range of local shops, with only one a few minutes away. However, the development is conveniently located about five minutes from Northolt Tube Station, providing access to public transport. Parking availability is a significant issue, as spaces are restricted, and the developer is reluctant to issue permits. Contact with the parking control network (PCN) is limited, with delays in email responses, and they seem uninterested in resolving permit issues.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is the issue with parking and the problems with the balconies. Firstly, the parking situation is more challenging than anticipated, with limited spaces and restrictions that make it difficult to secure a parking permit. It is essential to check with the management about parking policies and availability before moving in. Secondly, the balconies have a significant design flaw. The lack of underside panels means that water and debris from the balcony above frequently drip down, causing inconvenience and potential damage. This issue was not apparent during the typical viewing but has proven to be a persistent problem. It is important for new residents to be aware of these issues and address them with the management as soon as possible to avoid any surprises and ensure a more comfortable living experience.

What is the best feature of your home:

The best feature of my home is the well-equipped kitchen, which includes modern appliances, ample counter space, and high-quality fixtures that make cooking and meal preparation both easy and enjoyable. It is designed to be both functional and stylish, providing a great space for hosting and daily use.
