Scummy Landlord Who Evicts Whole Building

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The Deptford area is great to live in -- sadly, all 83 flats are being evicted from this building with 2-4 months notice.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management refuses to dignify our requests to meet with senior management, despite chucking everyone out of their homes with no clear explanation.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I'd known how little regard the landlord holds for the legal contracts they and their tenants sign. They also suddenly included break clauses into all contracts drawn up for the current signing period, when previous leases with fixed terms had no break clause.

Close to Deptford high street with many shops, cafes, restaurants. Transport is convenient, from either Deptford or New Cross you can travel to London Bridge in 5-6 minutes.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Most of the times they reacted quickly and get the job done.

It’s getting more expensive each year with less and less effort to put in .

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
They increas the rent with £120-200 each year - so it’s not worth to pay for a single room £1750/month at the actual rate - they claim it’s because the actual market price - but it can’t be true as the prices didn’t go each year up for properties
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They do but it takes time , so you need to bother them many times , also they don’t refurbish old carpets etc
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That we can’t use the cinema lounge after 8 pm and that we can’t smoke on the open roof top / there is no designated smoking area in the building - you can’t even smoke on your own balcony - it’s not permitted.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Amazing location, great spacious flat and a very helpful concierge added a lot to our experience. High street is packed and varied and central is a train ride away.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Never had a problem really. Any time I had to speak to them they were very professional
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There was more crime in the area than I expected. Be careful about your possessions, even parked cars outside are not safe ...

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living in my area offers a vibrant mix of independent shops and quaint restaurants, creating a charming atmosphere. The local parks are a highlight, providing lovely open spaces for relaxation. However, transport can be an issue; limited bus services often lead to overcrowding during peak hours. My street remains fairly tranquil, but parking is a challenge due to the narrow roads, with occasional disturbances from noisy trains. Overall, while the community vibe is strong.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management has been remarkably responsive to issues I've raised. They address concerns promptly, whether it's maintenance requests or security improvements. Their proactive communication and willingness to engage with residents have fostered a positive living environment. Overall, we feel heard and valued as a tenant.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
One tip I’d share with new viewers is to pay attention to the character development, as it deepens the humor and authenticity. It’s a great reminder of the importance of understanding and embracing differences in our own neighborhoods.
