Simple Life - Coral Mill

Honestly the best rented experience we have had.Simple Life have always allowed us to make the house feel a home by decorating it how we would like.They have also responded promptly to any issues we have had to the property and undertaken repairs immediately to prevent us being inconvenienced.We are going to miss the free ice cream & pizzas now we are moving into our own home.Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for rented accommodation.

Katie Blackburn.. Brilliant agent

Katie has been in touch constantly and has given us options before we settled for a house. She was accommodating with our requirements and gave us good advice.

The quality of the rental property…

The quality of the rental property provided by “Simple Life” Is truly impressive. The property is impeccably clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. It is evident that the company takes great pride in their properties, as everything is in excellent condition. I feel comfortable and at home from the moment I stepped through the door.

Extremely poor workmanship on the building, plasterboard falling off everywhere, walls literally crumble when you try and hang a shelf or TV. Lawns totally water logged and grass unable to grow evenly due to the amount of rubbish in the soil underneath. Would like to say it's a good job I haven't bought it but then I'm paying more in rent than I would on a mortgage so I don't really know what's worse

Chelsey · 21 June 2021

Agent replied · 17 June 2024

Hi Chelsey,We’re sorry hear that you had a number of teething issues upon moving in to your home. We’ve taken a look at your record and we’re pleased to see that all your property issues have been completed and closed. We can see that there are some ongoing investigations being completed with the garden, and we are working hard to get this sorted for you as soon as possible. As this is a housebuilder defect we we need to work with them to get this resolved. I can see that our Head of BTR has had a call with you since leaving this review and we’re pleased to hear that you’re happy with the service provided. We will continue to work with you and the house builder to get all items resolved. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience and frustration caused.

Simple Life, how ironic.

Absolutely dreadful Agency, who are clearly profit driven at all costs. Glad to have moved out. Didn't manage to take my deposit with me, but knowing I know longer need to deal with the often absent and unhelpful staff brings me great joy. I'd think twice before letting with this money grabbing Agency.

Conan · 11 October 2023

Agent replied · 17 June 2024

Hello, As you will know we have requested further identifiable information from you via Trust Pilot, we weren’t able to locate a tenancy matching the information you provided. Without the tenancy information, we are unable 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 can 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.

The process of referencing

The process of referencing, application etc was really easy and straightforward and quick! Although, after numerous chasing emails I have been told that our references have passed and someone will be in touch shortly to confirm move in time however, we are now week from move in date and still no communication has been received about move in time, paying deposit, tenancy agreement etc which is bit stressful.

Jessica · 16 May 2022

Agent replied · 17 June 2024

Hi Jessica, Thank you for your review. We’re really pleased to hear that you found our referencing and application process nice and easy! Following your review, I am pleased to see that Jade has spoken to you. We apologise if you were left feeling that you had to chase. Please rest assured, the team won’t have forgotten about you, usually the delay in communication is because there are no updates to share. However, we would like to thank you for your valuable feedback. We have noted recently from reviews and feedback like this, that we need more courtesy calls to our residents waiting to move in, so although you won’t feel the benefit now, your feedback has helped to improve our processes.
