Our sales advisor Rachel Eardley was superbly accommodating and made the process incredibly simple. She was simply never too busy to help. Often providing clearer help and peace of mind than any other party - including our solicitors. We could not recommend her highly enough.

Went through plumlife to apply for an apartment, they have taken money from me and now will not respond to my emails to reimburse me. Pre rental documentation was sent with the wrong persons name on it and overall terrible service, no direct phone number for the team in control of the new apartments in Stockport either. It's not coming up to a month's with no word from them and they still have my money.

Shared ownership journey: smooth purchase, frustrating management

December 17th 2025. I've noticed a lot of the reviews here reflect the purchasing process, which rightly gives high praise. This review reflects the full shared ownership journey, from purchase in 2023, through living in the scheme, to staircasing out in 2025. I've tried to keep it balanced as it's been a mixed bag. The initial sales process in 2023 was genuinely very good. My sales representative, Kelly was proactive, helpful, and played a key role in keeping things moving with conveyancing and getting the purchase over the line. That part of the experience was handled brilliantly. Property snags were managed separately with Great Places via James and the housing developer. This also worked as expected. Any issues were resolved within the first year, none were major, and this side of things was straightforward. Unfortunately, the ongoing account management experience with Plumlife has been consistently poor. Communication is slow and unreliable, with emails often going unanswered for weeks and conflicting information provided by different teams. It often feels like the management side is understaffed and reactive. Plumlife require consent for certain property alterations, but this process is difficult to navigate. Approval depends on detailed documentation from contractors like insurance etc before consent is granted, which makes it hard to secure quotes or shop around. Approval times are unreasonably long, meaning quotes often expire, leading to increased costs for residents. Plumlife are very quick to pursue payments when money is owed to them, but far slower when residents are owed money back. Despite staircasing out, I remain tied to Plumlife due to delayed account reconciliation and will need to revisit this again in Autumn 2026 to chase remaining overpayments. Residents in our development have been waiting for service charge refunds since September, with no communication from Plumlife explaining the delay despite multiple chases. This has now escalated to the point where a formal complaint has been raised. With regards to the staircasing process, which completed in July 2025, this largely went smoothly, despite a small hiccup in the early stages. Overall, the sales experience was strong, but the long-term management and aftercare fall well below expectations. Anyone considering shared ownership with Plumlife should look beyond the initial purchase and consider the ongoing management experience. Ideally speak to people who have been in the scheme for more than a year. April 1st 2026. It’s been 4 months since my review. Unfortunately the experience has gone downhill. Still no refund. They can’t get their story straight and I’m almost at the point of the housing ombudsman in my complaint process. Every commitment Plumlife has made in the complaints process has failed. And I’ve received zero communication except acknowledgements of my complaint at stage 1 and stage 2. I really have zero confidence in this organisation. Seriously avoid Plumlife unless you love stress and being left in the dark. I can also comment this feeling is echoed across other shared ownership residents in our development.

Plumlife Stress!

House has so many snagging issues Had to complain to stage 2 now. Caught in a war in your home between builder and subcontractors and plumlife / greaterplaces. Total joke. Avoid if you dont want a nightmare. Great concept bad builders bad aftercare.

My experience with Plumlife has been largely positive. The sales advisor, Jonny, was professional, responsive, and kept me updated throughout. Despite some delays due to third-party processes, the overall experience was well-handled, and I’m really pleased with how everything turned out.

Duties above and beyond

Over the past few months I have been struggling with how to understand my heating bills. I then spoke to Jim our building manager who came to my property and talked me through how to get a meter read of my meter due to all my bills being an estimated amount. This was not explained to me by the housing manger for my appointments. I would just like to say thank you to Jim for this and going above and beyond his duties. Parkhill in Sheffield would be lost without Jim as he always there for the residents and I find gets the job in hand done. Thank you and well done Jim !!!

Brilliant service!

Rachel and the Sales team at Plumlife have been amazing to deal with. They were very knowledgable in answering my questions on my viewing of Worrall St and acted quickly and efficiently throughout the entire reservation and sales process. I never felt rushed at all through the process and Plumlife always responded quickly to any queries from myself or my solicitor. The team were great at following up with my solicitor to ensure the sale went through on my new home as quickly as possible.

First Time Buyer - Home Buying Experience

As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about the process, but Plumlife made everything easy to understand. They were patient, explained every step clearly, and always took the time to answer my questions. I’m so grateful for their guidance and highly recommend them to any first-time buyer! Their friendly and knowledgeable approach made my experience enjoyable, and I am overall very happy with how things turned out. Plumlife walked me through everything, addressed all my questions, and ensured I felt confident in my decisions. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide! I hope to have a similar experience with their service.

Plumlife just don't care…

Received letter in the post giving us less than 24 hours notice to remove all vehicles from the car park by 8am next day to allow contractors to complete pothole repairs. Some neighbours are on holiday! To make it worse for those of us who complied no contractor turned up! Called to get an update at lunch time and was fobbed off that they would call back - they didn't! Latest in a long line of rubbish service since Plumlife took over: we live in a listed building and getting them to do any maintenance is like trying to herd cats. They will be responsible for this building going to ruin and being lost from the historic record.

Plumlife ruined my life

Plumlife ruined my life. Handover was a peice of paper with meter readings, property was filthy. Had official snagging inspection and 79 faults was found. Some of it is done but still more. There's a matter of my kitchen sink. Attitude of the building manager leave me no option but let my solicitor deal with this. Plumlife blame the builder, builder blame some of the contractors. I regret ever purchase through Plumlife.
