TrustpilotI am so pleased with Mandii Aujeley
I was so pleased to have Mandii Aujeley as my property manager to handle my property in London. She responded much quicker than I expected while handling the second time bed frame replacement. She direct liaised with the furniture supplier when the issue happened and kept me in the loop. Additionally, there was an email server problem from the supplier side and not able to receive my email. I found myself very helpless at the time because I was located in Hong Kong. Lucky, Mandii was very hands-on and called the supplier a few times to get the bed frame issue fixed asap. She also sacrificed her time on Saturday to update me with the status and make sure I was happy with her arrangement. I rated her with the best of the best service in Life Residential.

GoogleReally impressed by how quickly the viewing was arranged and how professionally it was done.
Ethan was very quick to respond to my request. He sent me a video over WhatsApp to see if I want to proceed. The video provided a good overview of the apartment. Once I was satisfied, he very quickly set up a viewing. He followed up very quickly after the viewing.
Ifrahim was the gentleman who showed me the property. He was punctual and very polite. Once in the apartment, he gave a nice overview. What I liked about him was that he allowed me to take my time to look at whatever I wanted. The other thing about him was that he was very honest and upfront about the limited parking availability (when I told about a possibility of getting a car).
If you want a professional, cordial and efficient service - I’d highly recommend Ethan and Ifrahim.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleIt has been a pleasant experience with Leo, he has helped me find the right house which is now our home..
It is important to listen to customer/clients needs and as I have noted, he does that remarkably and does not hesitate to go an extra mile to get job done with a smile on his face. He was prompt in replying to my messages and emails and extremely considerate. I am pleased.
Thanks and Good Luck.

TrustpilotMixed but overall positive
My experience with Life has been mixed. My experience was great with everyone in the team except one property manager who was initially assigned to my ( the said manager never responded, needed to be chased etc.) After sometime (and few many emails) the said property manager was replaced with Narcisse. She was the straight opposite of my previous property manager. She was very helpful, proactively kept me updated and made sure some of the issues in the property got resolved promptly. So mostly great people with few not so great ones

TrustpilotShocking, a cause of many problems and financial loss
Shocking. I hope this review helps any private landlord considering whether to use Life Residential to make an informed decision.They have managed my property for nearly two years, and during that time, a set of keys has been lost, the carpet has been burned and destroyed by the tenant, a door handle was removed and not replaced leaving the property open to the outside and unsecured, unknown charges have been added to my account without invoices, and a worthless checkout report was undertaken which did not effectively document a large proportion of damage to my property. I have paid them approximately £10,000 and for this, by lack of management and disorganisation they have at least caused double this figure in damage to my property. They recommend a tenant to me who had bad credit, and lived in squalor. Having Life Residential involved in this matter has onward implications that I am still feeling the consequences of.Therefore, I hope I can save any landlord the stress and financial loss I have suffered as a direct result of having instructed life Residential to manage my asset, as it has been a very bad choice.

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.

She patiently answered all my queries and helped me with multiple walkthroughs of different apartments around areas near Canary Wharf.
