Had an amazing experience with the agency - they have been so responsive and accommodating to all of our needs. My cousins and myself are very happy with our experience especially with the agent Scott. He was very approachable which we did love especially we do work crazy shifts.

Rosita-Lettings Manager

Rosita had managed my flat for a number of years and has done a fantastic job to date. She’s very efficient, diligent and very good at chasing down queries. Reassuringly, she always provides prompt responses. That means a lot. Thank you.

Terrible service from Nathan Read! Avoid!

My experience with Life Residential has been good for the last 5 years but unfortunately, this year their renewal department has provided terrible service. Nathan Read lacks professionalism and is dishonest. I have been chasing him on a weekly basis for the last 3 months to renew my tenancy contract with not much response. He is not accessible, makes false promises and doesn’t deliver on time. I honestly think he doesn’t care at all about doing his job and as such, i am now without a tenancy agreement and the landlord without protection! Avoid at all cost working with Nathan! I asked Life to replace him on several occasion with not much response. I will raise a complaint with the Property Ombusdman and i encourage people to avoid this letting agency.

My agent was Harry Free

My agent was Harry Free. Very pushy and was quite rude when bidding for the flat. Having a 9am meeting that day so didn't see his messages. Failed to reply him in only 5 minutes and then kept on receiving pushy messages such as '???'. Did not receive instant follow up for the flat as well. Was quite an unpleasant experience. Will not rent from Life Residentials anymore.

Terrible for tenants!

My flat had a major sewage pipe leak that flooded the whole apartment and rendered it unfit for habitation. I have since had to vacate the property but there’s been zero correspondence from LiFe residential, my calls are never received, they would not let me speak with the landlord or let me terminate the lease or reimburse me for the charges I’m incurring for an unoccupied flat!! The inconvenience this has been and continues to be plus the sheer lack of accountabiliy on their end is telling and abhorrent. Please do not rent with them!!

TOTAL SCAMMERS!!

TOTAL SCAMMERS!!! STAY AWAY!!!We “secured” a property with life residential (or at least we thought so) over a month before the actual moving day, referencing went through smoothly and we were just waiting for the contract to be sent to us. We had to ask a few times about the contract as we were kept promised a date but the contract was never sent. The contract was requested several times and every single time we were assured to relax that everything was in order and that the contract was going to be sent at some point. However, a week before the moving day (yes, 7 DAYS before the moving day) the agency called us saying that they council did not give permission for 4 people to live in the flat and that we had to find a different property. As you can imagine this was quite frustrating given that all of us had given notice to our respective properties, booked removal companies and we were going to be homeless in a week time. The agency did not even apologised or took responsibility for their negligence, they just blamed the council for this. We do understand regulations are in place, however this could have been avoided if the agency would have enquired the council a month in advance rather than a week. We are now left to secure an emergency accommodation (which doesn’t come cheap) cancellation charges for our removals and storage charges to store our goods until we can move into a new place. Shame on you life residential and the way you treat your customers!

Good agency we rent from for a few years

We rent with Life Residential for a few years already around Isle of Dogs. So far all communications were made very clear, all needed questions answered and assisted, requests for fixing issues in the property timely resolved. Just recently we got contract renewal with their agent Pooja Pandya, which as well went smoothly all the way from initial communication with the Landlord to signing of the papers.

Personal Service

Laura, the lovely lady who looks after my property, is a joy to deal with. She is proactive and always goes the extra mile to sort things out. She has been responsible for managing my flat for some time now and she keeps me informed in a timely manner of anything I should be aware of. Recently I have had a change of tenants and she has gone the extra mile to make sure that everything is in place for the new tenant, including arranging for some replacements. This has taken all of the hassle away from myself.....which has been a godsend.Laura you are a credit to Life Residential (along with your other colleagues who I have nothing but praise for).

Finding an apartment can be stressful at the best of times, but when you are trying to find an apartment, moving half way across the world and settling into a new job all at the same time... things can go a little crazy! The aim was to find a place to call home that was light and airy, 35 mins door to door from work and had a gym or was close to one. I have to say I hit the jackpot, here at the Royal Docks! The process through Life Residential was easy to understand and work through. Kyle my property consultant was flexible and made the process just that little bit easier and was always happy to answer any of my many questions. I would highly recommend you contact Life Residential out at Royal Docks and see what they have to offer.

Heidi, this review is beyond incredible, thank you, we really appreciate this. We're glad that Kyle not only provided a great level of customer care, he also listened to your needs, which is important when you're looking for a new home, especially in a different country. Welcome to London and we hope this new chapter in your LiFE is a great one.
