GoogleLack of security in the buildings and parcels stolen multiple times - wouldn't have been as bad however, I've been informed there is an issue with space to hold deliveries which would prevent more thefts, this to be more of a budget issue as there is plenty of space to build further apartment blocks... Would recommend living here if you do not work and have access to deliveries 100% of the time, if not then don't waste your time or money.

Agent replied · 7 June 2023
Hi Haich . We are sorry that you are understandably upset and I realise that being the target of a parcel thief is a very unpleasant experience . I have tried to fully explain the situation and offered to meet with you to discuss further if you so wish. Our security have been very proactive and you will know from living here for sometime that it is highly unusual to have such an incident. I do note though that aside from this incident you would recommend living here . Once again we are sorry you have had a bad experience and would like to reassure you that the team have done everything possible regarding this situation.
Kind regards Kim

GoogleSuch a lovely flat. Couldn't have hoped for better. From the get-go my partner and I knew that this was the one we would pick. Both of us feel extremelly comfortable here.
The staff is simply the cherry on top of the cake. Fenomenal. They always reply within the next 24h and in such a clear and professional manner.
Thank you for all your support, Selina!

I would suggest some minor work on the GetLiving app, which has the potential to be a very good one, as it has all the information we could possibly need. At the moment it has quite a few bugs. Not much of an incovenience, though, as I can simply use their website dashboard instead (I would suggest a UI update to it as well to a more modern one).
Edit: Had to change to 4 stars as the flat ventilation noise is driving me insane. I thought I was going to get used to it but more than 2 months have passed and every single day it annoys me and makes my head hurt, especially since I work from home. If I didn't have my headphones I don't know how I'd manage this much noise! It is ~59 dB, which is quite a loud device to have a few feet away from someone if you ask me. For reference, a fridge is ~42 dB.

GoogleI just wanted to take 5 minutes of my time to offer some serious praise for Cara Alderson at your Newmaker Yard site.
Since moving into Our apartment in November here she has been nothing but kind, attention, responsive and extremely helpful.
I am unsure whether you have any sort of recognition scheme or bonus scheme that can be offered to her. She certainly deserves it !
We look forward to our future here with continued assistance support from a star like her!

GoogleExcellent service! My partner and I are moving up to Manchester from London. We have been in touch with a few places but we have found ourselves constantly chasing with very delayed responses. However that was not the case with Get Living. Myself and Dean have been back and forth so many times by email over the last few days that I feel like he’s a mate at this point. Absolute credit to the company. He’s made the process so efficient and easy so far, and we are very happy all round. Will be recommending Get Living!

GoogleDenis, Tom and Brad from the maintenance team have been brilliant.
They came in today to put up my TV and I realised that my partner had accidentally binned the plug. They managed to find a spare one right away.
They were also very kind to my dog, who was scared from the noise.

GoogleThe fact that this company can even receive a 1 star rating is worrying. Complete lack of professionalism and care towards residents, waiting on the phone for hours for the office to reply with 0 responses. Gave phone number for them to "return the call" about 6 times over the past 2 months with ZERO call backs. Just find another agency that have more staff and are more willing to help.

GoogleLived here for just gone a year now and could not fault the services at NMY.
The staff have been excellent right from our move in and continued their attentiveness since.
Their efforts during this pandemic to ensure i felt at home have been great and i couldn't commend the team more, so shouts to them,
especially for bringing around care packages mid lockdown!
Prior to moving to NMY, we viewed a number of apartments within Manchester, all in which had good locations and okay builds.. but what made NMY stand out was the quality of the products that are offered inside their builds and the community events that are active throughout the year for all residents to join. I just didn't have the same feeling in the other new builds we viewed prior to choosing this location.
Thanks for the year so far! I Couldn't recommend NMY enough for anyone looking to view/move here.

GoogleIf you are looking for a place with a community feel and inclusion- LOOK NO FURTHER!
The team at New Maker Yards have been brilliant during this very challenging year we all have faced.
Be it regular engagement via comms, app and signage the team put their residents needs first as best possible. Always warm and welcoming.
The real winner was December 2020 whereby they erected a stunning christmas tree in sponsorship with Mind Charity and residents received totes bags with Xmas goodies to help lift spirits.
Then to get a courtesy check in call to make sure I was doing OK as I myself like many of us live on my own.
The apartments are fantastic and have very much a hotel feel to them and we have the locks too!
Get living are not just about money from you they support their residence and act swiftly to resolve any maintenance issues.
To all the team at New Maker’s Yard- Welcome Office down to the maintenance and cleaning team- THANK YOU ALL you truly are a fantastic team!
Bad news for you all I may now be here even through to retirement ( where I will be chased by security ) whilst pulling handbrake turns on my shop mobility scooter around the locks with flashing disco balls attached.
Thank you all once again!

GoogleMoved in 3 weeks ago, best thing I ever did. From start to finish, the whole team were amazing, accommodating so many viewings and answering millions of questions (sorry Josh for the number of emails I sent you) and since we’ve moved in there hasn’t been a single thing wrong. The flat is immaculate and modern, the maintenance and relationship teams are quick, friendly and so helpful and the local area is just the perfect setting, so close to town. Honestly couldn’t want for a better place to live. Excited for lockdown to end and social activities to resume.

GoogleHaving recently moved into the building, my experience with the company has been really positive. In particular dealing with Josh as our relationship manager stood out. From our first conversation he has gone above and beyond with his service. I was moving from across the water in N.I and concerned about the administrative burden. However Get Living and Josh ensured the whole process was straightforward. Not to mention the regular updates on how our application was progressing. The apartment itself is gorgeous but I cannot emphasise enough the high quality customer experience that recieved, making Get Living a cut above its competitors in the market. I have, and will continue to recommend to friends and colleagues! Huge thank you to the team.

GoogleThe Get Living team have been very attentive during our rental application process, Selina has helped us throughout each step and this has made it stress free and has been very accommodating for me and my partner working busy schedules. After moving up to Manchester from London, my partner and I have been thoroughly impressed with the excellent service and the flat we are renting is even better than we expected from the videos and photos. Cara settled us in nicely on our move in day and gave a thorough tour of all the facilities we have here, and I must say the team have created a lovely community feel to New Maker Yards! The assistance on hand is excellent, should we ever face any issues the online portal makes this super easy and straight forward i.e. maintenance requests. Highly recommend! Thanks again, Katherine.

GoogleThe best place we've rented. The flats are modern and good quality. The location is lovely, close to the city centre but far enough that it's still quite peaceful. The whole complex is pet friendly and there are loads of really friendly people with dogs.
I'm especially happy with all the staff here, every single one of them has been incredibly helpful and friendly. We recently had a minor issue with our dishwasher and Sophie from the Neighbourhood Operations Support team took care of absolutely everything. She booked the repairs and checked in with us regularly to make sure the issue was resolved. It was all managed very professionally and I felt I was treated like royalty compared to the treatment I've had from private landlords and letting agencies in the past.
