GoogleGoing through the lengthy L&Q process was made noticeably smoother thanks to Zakiya and Natasha. Their expertise was evident, but what truly made a difference was their kind and personal approach. In moments where things felt a bit overwhelming, Zakiya was there with clarity and reassurance. It's one thing to be good at what you do, but Zakiya and Natasha go a step further by truly caring about those she works with. We're grateful for her support and glad to have had her by our side.

GoogleNever rent from this agency, it will be the worst decision you will make in a long time. They are unprofessional, uncoordinated and will always blame every problem on you. They do not answer their emails and do not pick up the phone. If you manage to get through to them, they will just keep delaying by asking questions you have already given an answer to in your previous emails or over the phone. Problems will only pile up if you choose this agency.
Simona Greckaite was our property manager and we wish good luck to anyone who will have her as a property manager - she will not care about you, she will not listen to you and she certainly will take a very long time to get back to you but will contact you with no delay whenever she needs something (but still won't answer your email).
Overall: worse than horrible experience (they don't even deserve 1 star)

GoogleWe rented from them for 1 year and I can honestly say it was the worst year of my life thanks to L&Q. There were so many issues with the flat (mold, leaks, rats, electricity faults), they would ignore my emails and never pick up their 'emergency' phone number. Whenever I did manage to speak to someone it would still take days for someone to come and have a look to report back to see if it did actually need fixing. We were private tenants which we were told was top of the list for fixing problems, I would hate to know how long it took for non private tenants. I would avoid renting or purchasing with L&Q at all costs!!
I still get calls from maintenance people now after moving out to come to the flat so there must still be issues.

GoogleLooked into doing a shared ownership at L&Q Brunel Street Works and honestly the 1000’s of bad reviews are TRUE!
After registering with L&Q online i then had to pass a financial check to see what properties i was elegible for, SRC finance who are the financial advisor they use were help full and responsive. After passing the financial check i then had to contact L&Q to book a viewing.
This is where the whole experience went rapidly down hill. It took weeks to get through to someone after calling every single day and sending emails and hearing no response. I spoke to 2 different staff members from the development who said i need to wait to be contacted by Lina as she manages the viewings, I finally got emailed by Lina at the development and she booked me a viewing for the following week.
I arrived for the viewing and Lina was extremely unprofessional, Cold and honestly looked like she could not be bothered. I asked her questions about the development & how old the building was, the usual things you ask at property viewings and she told me she doesn't know.
She then told me she couldn't show me the property i booked to view as she didn't have the key. And then after 20 minutes of me waiting outside she “found it”.
After viewing i felt positive as i liked the house and tried to put the negative to one side. I then was told by Lina that the rent i had to pay on the unowned share increased as of yesterday and that i need to redo my financial assessment if i still wanted the property. it turned out that i had to put down a further £28k deposit to meet their new rental prices all because i didn't get my viewing & reserve 24hrs before they changed it.
I found the whole experience very cold and unprofessional, you are merely just a number to them that will either pay or wont pay what they ask. they lie about their “affordable housing pledge” and no one from that development has a clue what their doing.
If your a first time buyer and you value your life savings DO NOT buy anything from L&Q and please research before hand.
There are plenty of review pages out there from residents in shared ownerships with L&Q all across London and they are all terrible.

TrustpilotAppalling.
Appalling.Have contacted them many times about a subsiding rubbish cupboard that will take the whole porch down. As not communal will not fix so attempted to claim through buildings insurance and have been given 3 different companies to contact. Paying for Ground Maintenance for nothing done, pavements dangerous as cover in moss. Claiming money for lighting, block maintenance and tree works. I do not live in a block, lighting is owned by the council and no trees apart from people's gardens.

TrustpilotLack of communication with customers takes more than 1 email for a response
Staff are thick as theivs L&Q rebranded from Trafford housing most likely due to the bad reputation of trafford housing, I myself have worked in housing associations for many years which included complaints and maintenance queries/issues the housing sector throughout is on its backside because like most places like this you have half bothered people who cause and affect other staff members who actually care about their customers/residentsRecently I have raised an issue that we as residents pay service charges and noticed we haven't received 1 of our services prior to receiving letters at Princess court cornbrook for window cleaning.I queried this and stated if this hasn't been done as residents paying a service we should then be entitled to a partial refund which I haven't received no response its been over the 2 working days I contacted them and had no response I emailed again no response then raised a complaint again no response I then get a call from a completely different department about something else irrelevant to me so I called this afternoon to be informed its escalated to a stage 1 complaint and will get a response within 10 working days they clearly don't give a poo and I guarantee I won't be contacted in them 10 days as its taken me over 10 days to decide I need to call them and also now reported to the local MP of poor services from our housing association.If you are wanting to live local I get private renting isn't cheap but it's worth more your money than trying to rent a property through L&Q you won't get anywhere with them! Half the staff seem brain dead when talking to them

TrustpilotIF YOU Can Avoid and don’t allow contractors in unless insurance information is provided
I cannot put no stars so unfortunately have to put one down.L&q have avoided my condensation and mold in dormer roof- in 4+ years no one has been to inspect.L&q ignored vulnerable and health concerns in tenants.Latest UNBELIEVABLE issue-A contractor for L&q K&t heating fitted a boiler last June/july-Just had new flooring installed and months later after heating was on a leak from condensation pipe was leaking under my flooring (behind a kitchen unit)- 9 months later and L&q is avoiding the situation and no one is giving me any idea of who to pursue legal -SO BE WARNED IF YOU Get any damage to your property- L&q and contractor don’t want to know- we are told to take out contents insurance but leaks like this are under building insurance.L&q have a code of conduct which clearly states a contractor must reimburse any damage cause or they will get there contract rejected- K&t heating still work for L&q-Only £2500 out of pocket- had to get a loan to replace the floor due to walking injury.You will see a response from L&q staff members- totally ignored this as the CEO of L&q is aware and chooses to do nothing at all.Update-Quickest response from L&q - guest what it wasn’t to me but replying to trust pilot- L&q doesn’t have a special team to help at all- I informed the ceo and numerous staff members- who all choose to ignore me- contact me if want real facts and evidence-Look up L&q pays out £142 million in compensation- this will explain everything to you- I believe anyone who works for them must have no feelings towards other people-

The only repair that I have been satisfied with to date is a repair by David F. He is professional, polite and a pleasure to have in the house. His work ethic is second to none and I am in awe of his professionalism. Peter (the one with perfect teeth) on the other hand is gregarious and friendly, but his repairs are always very poor and I have always needed to call someone else out again. I imagine that Peter most probably is given 5 stars for his work, but please note, Pay attention to the original repair and not to the repair he does on the house.

Was one of the best housing associations but don't seem do you want to carry out repairs anymore? It’s all about shareholders for them and the tenant doesn’t matter anymore. Quick enough to take the rent but if you have a complaint, it’s never dealt with I have put in 5 repairs in the past 12 months and not one has been dealt with let alone completed.Why can we not get repairs done one example I have a broken fence on their property which they charge me rent for, but they told me they’re not responsible for the gardens.

They never carry out the repairs they say they will do. I have waited 6 months for new loft insulation to stop the black mould. The heaters are so old they were in Noah's Ark. Our intercom system is so old it's been condemned, it's supposed to be a lifeline, I just hope I never need it.Given the choice I would never have moved into an L & Q property if I knew then what I know now!

Ceiling cracked was filled in but painting the ceiling wasn't done properly after finishing doing the cracks he only painted over it but not the whole ceiling it's left with more patches and different colours on the ceiling and l&q refused painting the whole ceiling like they used to especially when the damaged cracks wasn't my fault I'm a disabled person and I can't do the painting myself. The person who did the job left the masking tape still up on the wall and he sanded the ceiling over my clean clothes and didn't cover the clothes when he started the job and didn't even ask me if I can move it across the other side. It was a discussing job that was done. I asked customer service if she can give me the supervisor name so I can speak to him and explain what happened but she refused to her name is lauren and she was very ignorant she shouldn't be working as a customer service agent . I never had this problem before because when I reported a structural damage l&q used to complete the job properly and paint the whole ceiling or walls I know this for a fact because I had this done not so long ago

TrustpilotDisrepair horror - L&Q breaks the lease
If you buy your flat from L&Q, do not rely on them to do any repairs, or to honour their obligations. On 27 August 2024, L&Q's Home Owners Team refused to comply with the lease they'd signed with me. The lease clearly states at clause 5(3)(a) that L&Q are responsible for repairing windows, except for glass. No other ifs or buts.But when I called them on 27 August 2024 to report a broken window frame, they denied responsibility. They simply ignore the signed lease and say that they can do whatever their "policy" tells them.Even worse, they claim not to have a copy of the lease on their system. I emailed them a copy of the lease on the same day, to no avail. The Home Owners Team claim not to have access to any email address, so they cannot see the copy lease I sent to their repairs team. And the Repairs team did not acknowledge my email and did not answer my phone calls. I called their Repairs Team twice on 27 August and spent over 1 hour and 10 minutes in their queue, but was unable to reach them.When I ask to speak to the manager at Home Owners Team, I get informed that their "seniors" refuse to speak to customers. They put me on hold, then disconnected me. They did not get back to me.If I could, I would give them minus 5 for this truly appalling, incompetent and dishonest service.

I recently contacted LandQ to share a noise concern coming from my neighbours three dogs which bark from early morning into the evening in their garden below my flat. I feel uncomfortable approaching my neighbours and asked for LandQ to remind dog owners to be considerate about this, and suggested putting something in the newsletter about this. LandQ refused and suggested that I approached my neighbours myself. I found this response really unhelpful and somewhat lazy as I am not the only person to be impacted by this in my block, and suspect that there are others on the estate who are struggling with the same issue.

TrustpilotRude, hostile and uncaring
So, L&Q replaced the faulty mixergy tank with a new tank over a month ago. They are yet to connect it to the economy 7 system. I called them on Friday 23 August to tell them that I had no hot water they agreed to send an electrician on an emergency call to connect it to the economy 7. He couldn't find any fault so they sent an emergency plumber who arrived at 7pm. As soon as I opened the door he complained about being called out on a Friday night and refused to fix the tank because HE didn't agree that it was an emergency for me not to have any hot water. I explained that I have a disability and need hot water which is L&Q's responsibility to fix when necessary. He was so rude and beligerent that I was glad when he left. So, I have been left without hot water over the bank Holiday. This plumber's attitude was unacceptable and unecessarily combative. He was sent by L&Q to do a specific job, not to argue with me, the tenant. How can an operative refuse to do the job he is employed to do? This is indicative of the overalll culture at L&Q; nobody wants to do anything. They are unprofessional and uncaring. How can they fail to complete such a basic repair so many times, for so many years?

TrustpilotRenting for the first time in London
Helped by TinaRenting for the first time in London, I was not sure how confusing the process would be. However, L&Q provided excellent and quick support with everything. The only issue was that the SRP Inventories person did not explain everything clearly as he was in a rush; he just handed over the key and left without explaining how to use the heating/cooling switch in the apartment. As a result, I had to figure it out myself. Other than that, everything else was good.
