GoogleLifespace have been my landlords for the last 3 years, well maintained property and I’ve always had quick professional responses to my queries.
Eg. My boiler packed up, and within 10
Mins of my emailed being sent the maintenance team rang me back and were here within the hour, fast fix and cleaned up After himself.
Very pleased.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleProfessional, efficient and approachable estate agents. I had the privilege of working with one of their agents Callum Wright who was advisory and helpful through every step of the tenancy process. I would use these estate agents again.

GoogleREAD THIS BEFORE RENT WlTH THEM! Be careful about paid in Lifespace. They have terrible communication about payments, and the missed up. You have to demonstrate them with their own emails about the rent of the house. They can say you have a false debt with them and force to pay, this misunderstanding could you get you a problem in future rent because they pass wrong information, and when speak to you they said "pay this amount and I can give better recommendation"
In my case they said my debt was more that £2,600, after a lot of email to demonstrate my debt was around £80 for last days I was in the studio. They never care about mice infestation, pipe problems and leaking. I have spent more than £200 for fix up these stuff.
These leakings appeared more than one year ago, and they do not nothing about that. I have emailed and called but not solutions. Please if lifesapace read these, could you fix up until winter comes. Thank you!
If you want to rent double think before do it. LIFESPACE SHOULD GET THIS FEEDBACK AND IMPROVE
The star they deserve is about they friendly when you are lucky and get contact with them and the building cleaning. I quite surprised about comments say they were quick to fix up. THEY NEED TO IMPROVE IN THAT! OR MINIMUM ASK ABOUT THAT AND KEEP CONTACT! - after one and a half year the ask for leaving the apparment!!!!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleWas with these guys for 5 years had paid on time every month, have been cheated out of £400 of my deposit. When I moved in originally nearly 3 years ago, carpets had stains, mould on walls were just covered with paint, lino was in a terrible state, oven was disgusting that I paid for a professional clean on the oven went out and spent on a carpet cleaner, got on my hands and knees to scrub the lino. Every year spent hundreds on trying to keep the mould abay, however have lost over £6000 on furniture, and I am once again out of money when getting my deposit back. Personally wouldn't use ever again.

Googlenot happy with this service
my mother and myself are only entitled to 600 per calander month these estate agents are ment to accept housing benifit and pets
so they must understand that for two people between us we would only be allowed 600 per calandar month?
upon asking information myslef and mother are not allowed to live in a one bedroom property
this property we asked about was a double bedroom with a garden for my dog
i do not belive that a daugther ans a mother are not entitled to a one bedroom and it has to be a two bedroom as this would not be affordable and would be above 600 pcm
i belive that life space know this and know how much two people would be entitled to on dss
yet they said we would not be entitled to a 1 bedroom at our price and would have to get a two bedroom.
i feel this is not the truth and we have been chastised
will not be looking here again as i was under the understanding these estate agents understand dss and the prices that two people are entitled to.
i dont recomend these estate agents if you are only entiteld to 600 and are trying to get yourself and youre child a place to live i feel very let down and targeted.

GoogleI've rented from Lifespace for over 3 years now.
The staff are always happy, professional and polite. Whenever I've had a problem like when my boiler stopped working they sent a repair man out the very same day. No fuss no delaying they just dealt with it ! They're very experienced and follow the book!
I've rented from other companies before and have been completely conned with admin fees of all sorts. Lifespace do not charge admin fees when you start renting with them. You just need to prove you can afford the rent, have good references and have a guarantor or a 2 month deposit... it's that simple.
Lifespace are not an 'Estate Agents' they are the landlord, because they own the property, which is probably why they deal with things so quickly.
I highly recommend this company for other renters. After my 3 years experience with them I don't think I could ever rent from anyone else!
Thanks

GoogleDisgusting policies who refuse to rent one bed apartments to a mother and child, who are on benefits saying they need to be in a 2 bed which costs 750-800 pcm when housing benefit is 606 4 weekly..... Telling people they have to find the means to pay the extra 200 a month when their child isn't even school age! Avoid this company like the plague, they would rather see people homeless. Vile company!!
