If you want to rent a house don’t contact Simple Life(Ascend properties) .I had the most awful experience with them, very unprofessional & rude! Their job is to make money from people’s deposit!!! Avoid them.

Hello, We're sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the service provided to you. As you will know we have requested further identifiable information from you via Trust Pilot but we have unfortunately had no response from you. Without this information we are unable to locate your tenancy for us to look in to this for you and to help you further.We would like to take this opportunity to highlight that if any resident is unhappy with proposed deductions from their deposit at the end of their tenancy, they have the opportunity to dispute this with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, who act as an independent adjudicator on behalf of both parties. They will review all information provided and will make a final decision on deposit deductions to ensure that these are always reasonable and fair.

Impossible to get in contact with simple life. They take your deposit and then that it. Phones lines never work and no response to emails. Worst company I’ve rented from. They unfortunately have beautiful properties. But you have to tell yourself is it worth the stress? I honestly can not say a good word about the company

TrustpilotNew home to start anew
So far what we've experienced is all good. They live up to their mission in providing a quality home and good environment for their residents. Plus any concerns are managed and resolved easily through FixFlo. On top of it, our asset manager is very accommodating. Would definitely recommend this to my colleagues and friends. #SETTLEFORMORE

TrustpilotAbsolutely the best letting agency!!
This is my first time using Simple Life and I have to say it is by far is the best company I have ever worked with! Their communication methods and relationship with consumers is exceptional and should be ,in my opinion, a landmark for other letting agents.

TrustpilotAvoid simple life homes.
No one ever replies to emails or returns your calls. We had an attempted burglary recently and i'm still waiting months after reporting for permission to install a flood light for our safety. This is just the most recent issue from a long chain of incompetence and avoidance. Worst renting experience of my life. AVOID.

Hello,Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. Firstly, we’re very sorry to hear about your burglary. It is very important to us that our residents feel safe in their homes, so we are very disappointed to hear that you’ve had trouble getting a response from your property manager.We’ve been closely monitoring the performance of our customer service team and we recently took the decision to put a new team in place. We appreciate that this won’t change your experience, but we hope that now your site is under new care, you will see an improvement.The new team have checked your records and we can see that there are no outstanding works on your FixFlo maintenance account, so your Asset Manager wasn’t aware of your situation. We apologise for any breakdown in communication between our old and new team. We’re pleased to see that our Head of BTR has personally given you a call and has confirmed approval of the external light and is getting this installed as a matter of urgency for you today.

I was the tenant with them and once moved out, they provided a long list of damages and aimed to take my whole deposit. Most of their claims were completely wrong. Please avoid them

Agent replied · 16 June 2024
Hello,Thank you for your review and getting back to us with identifiable information.We understand that since leaving your review, Operations Manager, Ashley, has called you to go through your check out report and he has explained that based on check out report, compared to your check in report, the list of repairs are required to get the property back to standard. We’d also like to point out that no costs have been issued as of yet, we’re in the process of collecting these. As soon as we have them, we will share with you and if you’re unhappy at that point you will be able to raise a dispute with the TDS (tenancy deposit scheme) who will independently review and adjudicate.

We are currently in the process of our application. We contacted Simplelife about the scheme we were interested in and information we received was very detailed. As previous Simplelife tenants, we can wholeheartedly recommend them ... hence our return to Simplelife for our potential new home!

The house is beautiful and we love it but the property manager is impossible to get hold of and does not call back. Promises are made and not followed through. Outstanding requests for 8months regarding jobs needing doing on the house which are safety requirements. Inconsistencies across developments that are not stated on advertisements.
