TrustpilotLife Residential Agency (STAY AWAY)
Life Residential in London (2 Lakeside Drive) is one of the WORST LETTING agencies in UK to do business with as a LANDLORD. 1. They are always looking for things to "fix" in your rented apartment -- no matter if it needs fixing or not.2. Any small "fix" is charged at a HIGH PREMIUM. Example: Toilet leak costs over 200 GBP to fix???3. Example: A small damaged wood plank in the patio (no complaints from the Tenant) was estimated to cost to repair over 2,200 GBP!!!! 4. They always take the side of the Tenant on ALL ISSUES.5. As someone that was using them from 2007 (over 15 years), once I fired them last year, their "professionalism" drastically changed and they became non-responsive to open issues.6. They owe me 400 GBP and are sitting on it with no action waiting for me to continuously chase them to refund my money.7. They refuse to provide escalations within their office to their GM and/or UK Government bodies and ignore my requests. 8. ...If you want a responsive and honest Letting Agency, stay away from this outfit. If you are a LANDLORD based outside UK, stay away from this outfit -- they will eat up your lettings earrings with high-prices "fixes" or work not really necessary.

GoogleHave been a tenant through Life Residential for over one year now. It was a bit of a bumpy start as we had multiple changes for property manager, so reporting problems was left for a considerable time before anything was resolved. Esmee had managed to get all our current issues resolved very promptly again after not having a dedicated property manager. All in all it has been a good experience with Life Residential.

GoogleVery good at sorting accommodation quickly and taking your money.
However when if I had any issues such as the bath being broken and the mattress causing back pain, they did not want to help or solve the problem so nothing was done. Then on leaving tried to charge me for numerous of things that I did not do which I was lucky I backed up with photographs. On trying to get my deposit Lauren had ignored all my emails and calls and didn't want to refund the remaining deposit money which was mine. Worst estate agent I have dealt with not helpful at all only when taking your money.

GoogleDEPOSIT BEING HELD FOR 3 + MONTHS!!!!! IGNORING OUR EMAILS!!!!!!!
Worst agent ever. I would give 0 stars if it was possible. Rented with Life Residential for 2 years, nice flat but every time something needed to be fixed, it took months to get sorted. Not only this, we have been almost 2 months dealing with deposit issues as they are trying to take our money from things that were already in the check in report. We still havent seen our deposit and it is taking forever to receive a response.

We’re extremely sorry that the standard of service you experienced was not to the standard we would expect. We understand that a manager has now reached out to you and the final deposit proposal has been provided to you, as well as information regarding raising a dispute via the deposit scheme if you are not in agreement. We will be reviewing processes internally to ensure that any delays to deposits are improved going forward.

GoogleI regret to say this is by far the worst real estate services I have experienced. The property managers are unfriendly, unresponsive and unprofessional. I always had to send multiple chasers to get the property managers to handle a task for me, no matter how simple it was. There also seems to be poor communication amongst personnel, which has caused me a lot of inconvenience. Importantly, they do not seem interested at all in providing services and support to tenants. I will never use these services again.
