Great experience with life residential

Life residential have been great since we started renting one of their properties over 2 years ago. They have supported us throughout with contract renewals and making sure any problems within our flats are resolved ASAP. Our property manager Breje is great and always professional. She's always quick to answer any questions we have.

Excellent, thorough, and accommodating service with Leighton Hanson

I recently had a property inspection conducted by Leighton Hanson, and I was highly impressed by his professionalism. We had a personal event to attend later that day, and Leighton very kindly agreed to accommodate an early morning visit. This flexibility helped us a great deal and took a lot of stress out of our schedule. He arrived exactly on time and was extremely polite. During the inspection, he carefully went through the property and took the time to ask if there was anything we needed fixed or checked. He made the entire process seamless, efficient, and proactive.

Incompetent & Unprofessional company - AVOID at all costs

DO NOT use Life Residential. These people are incompetent, do zero actual work, and will drop you the NIGHT before move-in and call you the problem. I have no idea how this agency has so many 5-star reviews. I imagine they are bought, because this is not a company that has its act together. I had a move-in date of 8 August. I turned down two other flats for this one because LR and the landlord both confirmed it was mine once I passed referencing. I passed referencing. I'd already started moving my things in. The night before I was officially supposed to move in, LR called to tell me they weren't proceeding. That's it. After a full week of "it's coming, we're just so busy," they waited until the last possible minute to pull the plug. I had to go back, grab my belongings, pay for an Uber, and work out where I was sleeping that night, with zero notice. At no point did LR do a single piece of work themselves. When I was wrongly told my documents were missing, did LR check? No. They told me to call their own third-party referencing company and sort it out myself. So I did, for an entire week. I chased. I explained, over and over, that everything had already been submitted. I got passed to person after person, like five different people, none of whom knew what was going on or would take ownership of anything. LR's entire "handling" of my tenancy was forwarding me somewhere else and telling me they were busy. After a full week of chasing an agency that couldn't be bothered to check its own paperwork, after doing their job for them, I was the one who got labelled the problem. I was called "toxic" to the landlord. For following up. For asking what was happening with my own tenancy, after they left me in the dark for days at a time. They did nothing, dumped every ounce of effort back onto me, and then pulled the tenancy at the last possible second and blamed me for it. I got a phone call at 4pm the EVENING BEFORE I was meant to move in telling me that they don't want to proceed. I would avoid Life Residential at all costs - and this isn't even everything that happened.

Conor was absolutely fantastic to work with! He made the whole process of finding our new home so much easier and less stressful. He was professional, approachable, and always went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable with each step. His friendly attitude really stood out, and we couldn’t be happier with the service. Highly recommend Conor and Life Residential Royal Wharf to anyone looking for a smooth and supportive experience!

The estate agent I dealt with was PUSHY and used a CLASSIC BAIT AND SWITCH on us. My girlfriend and I put an offer in on a flat and shortly after signing the contract with the agreed time, they said they couldn't do that day due to the landlords issue. Then the agent was very pushy, calling up multiple times to force another date we could do, he refused to take a no. Then when we ultimately said we don't want to do the later date they said that they are going to keep the £500+ 1 week holding deposit because it is OUR fault. I would just stay away from this company. Just BE CAUTIOUS AS THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND REFUSE TO REFUND IT.

He was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Whether it was answering my questions, arranging viewings, or ensuring a smooth transition, Conner went above and beyond to make everything stress-free.

Never rent from these people

Rented a 1 bed in Westgate House from Life Residential for a year. Expensive - £1700pcm, especially given the experience of living under them. I cannot begin to tell you how unprofessional their whole team was. We had Life Residential estate agents unlocking our front door at 5pm on a weekday to show prospective tenants our flat when we were midway through our tenancy. This happened twice. Issues were almost never fixed, we had 5 property managers in a 1 year tenancy, none of whom responded to emails or were ever available when you phoned the office. Life Residential refuses to ever give us our landlord's details, which is literally illegal. We almost lost our new flat to move into because our property manager never responded to the referencing company. When they did they said my wife never lived with me even though she was literally on the tenancy. We paid for a deep clean when we moved out and Life still tried to charge us £120 cleaning fee. 2 weeks after our tenancy ends and we are still chasing for our deposit, having to go to TDS to get it back.There were hidden charges in the rent - the heating and ventilation added another £100 a month to the rent which was not discussed. Pets were said to be allowed but then when we moved in we had to pay a 'licence' to have them.We had severe issues in the property itself, including terrible plumbing, standing water, poor ventilation. Issues took months to fix or were just ignored, both through their online system and email/phone. The '24/7' concierge was never at the desk, we had parcels stolen and drunk homeless people walking around our hallways and trying to break into our front door because the 'secure fob' doors were broken more often than working. We had to call the police several times for this. The gym in the basement flooded with sewage water (as well as some people's flats) and also was out of order many times. Run a mile.

I had the pleasure of working with Conor to secure a fantastic 2-bedroom flat in Stratford, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. He arranged a same-day viewing and completed the entire process in just 7 days, making it incredibly smooth and hassle-free. During the viewing, Conor went above and beyond, allowing me time to take a video of the flat to share with my other flatmate and patiently waiting while I did so. He also negotiated on our behalf to get an excellent deal with the landlord, ensuring we got the best value possible. What truly stood out was Conor’s attention to detail. He noted minor issues, such as staining on the carpet, and made sure everything was cleaned and the flat was handed over to us in pristine condition. His quick responses on WhatsApp and clear communication throughout the process made it all the more reassuring. Conor’s professionalism, dedication, and effort to go the extra mile make him a standout agent. If you’re looking for someone who truly puts the client first, Conor is the person to work with. Highly recommended!
