GoogleI rented a studio flat with LifeResidential at Westgate House for 12 months. I will explain below the reason why I gave 1 star.
- The initial process from the contact with the agent to contract negotiation/ viewing / references checks and start was great. It was super smooth and clear all the way through and everything was very professional.
- The flat was new and fairly priced. Although the building management could have improved certain things, LifeResidential delivered.
All is well as long as you’re coming in… based on this only I would have given 4/5 stars BUT for future tenants please be aware :
1) As my 12 months tenancy were close to an end, I have been contacted by LifeResidential agent regarding extension. After I confirmed, she then asked me to pay over 30% more in rent. Considering that the energy bills are paid by the tenant and increased massively, I thought this was a bit excessive and asked to negotiate and that I was happy to pay more but not 30% more. I was immediately notified with a section 21 eviction letter and felt that there’s never been room for discussing or consideration for good tenants by this person. I accepted.
2) I am a very tidy person and professionally cleaned the flat to a very high standard before exiting it however I did not keep the very light 20£ ikea duvet that was initially provided. As a result, they have decided unilaterally to release the secured deposit and take 130£ (They only gave me the rest of the deposit - undisputed - after many follow ups and many weeks). They have also added “pillow covers” as missing items although they were washed and ironed the same morning by myself before I left the flat. I have asked the agent, Olyvia S., numerous times for updates and requested to see the breakdown and receipts that justify this amount. I wanted to dispute this amount and felt it’s unfair to charge 130£ for a 20£ Ikea duvet that shouldn’t have been given to the next tenant anyways for hygiene reasons. Olyvia ignored half my emails and replied to the second half that “the landlord hasn’t replied yet”. This lasted 3 months until I gave up and have never received a response nor my money. Again, with LifeResidential the tenant doesn’t matter.
Out of all the places I rented with, this was the last place I would have thought I’d get robbed of my deposit as everything seemed very professional when I signed. I’m very disappointed and will not use / recommend them to anyone.

GoogleLife Residential provided excellent service in dealing with the damage arising due to a water leak from a toilet tank in my flat. Property Mangager Reena Hirani was very professional, efficient and helpful in liaising with the tenants, arranging tradesmen to carry out replacement of the toilet tiles and living room wood flooring, and dealing with the insurer to cover the costs of the repair works. Reena's good work has made it much easier for me to go through this unfortunate incident and has taken most of the stress off me.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleI never really leave a review but I am extremely disappointed with that estate agency.When I had a viewing for the flat they didn’t show me the flat properly and they kept the blinds closed so I couldn’t see that the house is facing the reception internal with no windows,no fresh air at all and noise from the people coming in and out it’s like living in a shopping mall.I pay all these money and sometimes I don’t even want to come back in my flat because I know the nuisance is going to annoy me again.
I trusted George which was my biggest mistake ever.As soon as he got the money he didn’t care about anything else.
I have emailed them multiple times to break the contract in the beginning they agreed with me if I find someone else they will let me go so I had to advertise the flat by myself even though it was their job to do it and they charge you over £500 for that.People were coming to view my house with the Covid situation.
As soon as I found someone they said the landlord doesn’t agree with that.
Unfortunately I have a year contract and these six months here are the worst months of my life.
I am regretting it everyday for signing up that contract.They never reply to my emails they are just sending me rent reminders.
I would never use this agency again.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleBy way of background, my partner and myself scheduled a viewing which was confirmed to us on Tuesday 8 February 2022 my Mr. Bell for Wednesday 8 February 2022 at 6 pm.
This was rescheduled a day prior by Mr. Bell who then confirmed that a viewing was available for 1 pm on Tuesday 15 February which we both later confirmed.
This morning, an ‘hour prior’ to the viewing we were sent an email by Mr. Bell intimating that the viewing cannot take place without any given reason and rescheduled it for 4.30 pm on the same day. He was then unreachable by both email and telephone.
I then reached out to his manager, Mr. Shaddy Elkiey who apologised and intimated that the tenant was not allowing access to the property. He then assured me that a response on whether the viewing would take place would be communicated to me at 3 pm. That didn’t happen and I had to call Mr. Elkiey again as Mr. Bell was again unreachable.
Mr. Elkiey then confirmed to me that there was no indication of whether the viewing would go ahead and I would be contacted in due course to reschedule.
Myself and partner have taken time off from work on 2 separate occasions now. This nonsensical approach from the lettings team has wasted our valuable time. We are both working professionals and it’s a great deal of inconvenience when something as stupid as this happens.
There was a complete 5 day period for your team to confirm whether the tenant would allow access to the property or not. And if they didn’t confirm then why on earth did they schedule the viewing anyway?
Poor service. A complaint was even forwarded and never responded to.

GoogleI have been helped by George Lamb, I need to thank him for the great job he did :) He found a flat for my first arrival in the UK last year, at a very good price. This month he found for me a new flat with the same characteristics of my previous one. He was really helpful, being very busy with work I didn’t have much time to look at alternatives but with him I received good assistance. Always quick in answers and always been easy to reach. See you next time!PositiveQuality

GoogleOur move was overseen by George Lamb and I could not commend him enough for his professionalism throughout the whole process. From the viewing to the day we received the keys George remained professional, approachable and informative. Any questions we had he was more than happy to help and would direct us to the right person if he did not know the answer himself and was honest throughout. As this was our first time moving there were many things we were unsure of or worried about, but George’s great personality and attitude made the process seamless, thank you George!

GoogleI've been helped by Ashleigh Bates and without her support I'd never been able to sort out the issue I had with my bed. The bed was in good condition however the slats did not support the mattress enough, causing me a general back pain that I could not stand anymore. Ashleigh has promptly taken into account my issue and talked to the landlord that has substituted bed and mattress, though not broken. She has been really helpful, being super busy with work I could not sort it alone but with her I've received the assistance I needed. I'm in the same building since 2 years now and I've never received a similar assistance from any of the previous Property Managers. Thank you very much Ashleigh :)

I can't speak for the other property managers and agents from LiFE, but Shruti is fantastic. Best property manager I've ever had by far!

GoogleMs. Beki Smith is the Portfolio Compliance Manager at Liferesidential UK who has helped with my rental properties over the years. She is friendly, prompt, and professional. Whenever I am about to renew the tenancy agreement with my tenant, she understands my position as landlord and always provides me a clear view of current rental market. This time, she again has successfully helped renew the tenancy agreement with my tenant. Beki is nothing short of outstanding and I highly recommend her.
