Terrible management
I paid all of their management and letting fees when I rented the flat from them for two years. Who the hell knows what the letting and management fees are used for? for them to take comfortable, warm seats in the office. I had complained to them about the tenant using the living room as a place to live and sleep. This could harm the couch. They hadn't taken any action in that regard. I quickly replaced the agent when the previous tenant moved out, he stole kitchen and bathroom storage units and damaged the sofa. I attempted to get this from my tenant deposit, but I was only given a £180 instead. The agent is unwilling to accept accountability. i even paid over £200 for inventory check in and check out report. that was worthless.The agent is pulling back, deciding not to pursue this further. I would advise against using a Life Residential agent, terrible letting and sales Agent!!!

Worst experience in the hands of a letting agent
Had a superb move-in experience made possible by Matt and even left a 5-star Google review. The problem started when it was time to move out. They sent a cleaning fee which was the highest quote I received, but their conditions were quite harsh. Basically, if you used another cleaning service, they would not allow you back into the property once you handed over the keys, and if they had any concerns after inspecting the property, you won't be allowed to re-enter the property to address it and they will have to charge you to clean it. I opted for their cleaning service and when I got my deposit back, it was charged an extra fee for cleaning the furniture in the house. I wrote back and highlighted the moving out email where they said they would handle all cleanings, there was no mention of extra charges and they ignored it completely, saying it was the Landlord that sent the deduction, meanwhile I did not have a cleaning arrangement nor ever interacted with the landlord throughout my stay. The second issue I was charged for was missing items, they had sent a mail that a checkout inventory would be done but no one came until I had moved out. Only for me to be charged for missing utensils and other items that I had left in the property. I challenged this and reminded them that the failure to do the moving out inventory was on their part as I was around all through and no one came but again I was bullied and told there was nothing that could be done, that the landlord had said some items were missing and I had to pay for them.Lastly, during the last days of my tenancy, people kept coming for inspection and a LR agent would take them around, at the end of the week when my partner came back, she noticed that her favorite perfume which she just got was missing. I informed LR of this and nothing was done about it either.Overall, my move-in experience was easy and great as well as my stay but the move-out experience was the worst experience, LR did not care one bit and took as much money as they wanted from my deposit and nothing I said ever go looked into, just generic replies of there is nothing I can do from the facility manager

Supportive Hayley
My property manager Hayley was very accommodative and supportive for the time I have lived in rented premises. Following Russian aggression in Ukraine, she helped liaise with the landlord to amend my tenancy agreement, so my mother could come to the UK and stay with me at this tough time.

Water leak into my property
I have not had need of much contact with Life Residential who manage my rental apartment in Riverdale House, Lewisham. However, there has recently been an incident whereby works conducted above my property caused a water leak into the property. I found it difficult to extract details of what exactly had happened from the Property Manager. I had to repeatedly ask what/where/when/why and was not getting any proper answers. This was frustrating, needless and a demand on my time when all I was asking for was a concise, accurate and factual report of the incident. This has caused me to seriously consider the professionalism of LR and whether i really want them to continue managing my property going forward.
Dear Mr & Mrs Burnell, thank you very much for taking your time to let us know how we're doing. We are very sorry to hear that your apartment at Riverdale House was damaged due to the water leak in above property and we're even more sorry to hear that you feel like your property manager has not provided you enough information about the incident. Please accept our sincere apologies for this and let us ensure you that we'll try our best to be more concise with our responses to yourself. In the mean time, please do let us know if there's any additional information or help with your property you require.

The worst agency you could ever trust when renting a property. Once you sign the contract, it’s as if you stop mattering to them, regardless of the issues you may face. I rented a flat through them for just over two years. … More

I have never been so revolted by the poor treatment of an real estate agency than I have with life.1 week ago, I made a booking to view a property today at 11:30am.I called at 10am this morning before making the travel to view and asked - "is it still available, I don't want to arrive and it's taken" I was assured it was available.I then spent 1 hour travelling to the viewing and was greeted by an agent who said the property was taken.He then said that another would be made available on the 5th of Dec.I said send me the video viewing and offer letter today so I can get on top of it. He confirmed he would send it in 30min.I called him 1 hour later - He said he was "typing the email as we spoke". By 15:30 still nothing. I called 3 numbers. Noone answered. I left a voicemail.In terms of TCF also known as treating customer fairly this is a huge breach of the consumer protection act of 2017.It is a horrific display of just how much greed and money is the pure focus and to hell with any individual person.I whole heartily encourage people to disassociate yourself with this company because they are hurting the common person.

Resolution to a complex issue
I recently had a complex issue that had been pending for the last three years. Despite continuous escalation, multiple parties, including CEP energy providers, were not addressing the issue. However, my property manager, Rosita Kausiute, recently took decisive action to partially resolve the issue. I commend her for her efforts, as this was longstanding problem had previously gone unresolved for three years.

The whole process has been so easy and professional
This is my first and only landlord experience. I was very uncertain about the investment and the issues that could have come with such an investment. From the very beginning LF have been there supporting me, looking out for me and guiding me through the process and documents. LF are excellent at keeping me informed, they undertake inspections and anticipate rent issues before they arise. I would highly recommend their services to any first time landlord.
Hi Sassie, thanks for your feedback. We're so pleased we've been able to support throughout the process!
