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

Response is prompt however l did stay in on several occasions and no one turned up to fix issue or in one case for the inspection but l think l was just unlucky as it did not seem to happen to others l spoke to .We moved house and had deposit returned in full so no complaints there.

Good car parking facilities but doesn’t stop people parking on the street and roads are narrow. You get lots of litter from the high school. And only 1 bus per hour.

They are fairly quick to respond but communication between office and on site workers can be poor.

Wish we’d gotten the opportunity to view the property, we were basically asked to select one at random. There’s very little cabinet space in the kitchen and you do not have access to the loft which is highly frustrating.
