Terrible overpriced service, they don’t care about the residents they represent. Worst management company ever

Absolutely atrocious building management. We have had fire doors, water pressure, graffiti, exposed lift shaft wiring, and reoccurring issues with the emergency door release and none of these are every dealt with is any kind of timely manager. These issues have been raised directly, through their contact emails, and by multiple groups of residents. On the off chance we get a response we’re told it will be sorted soon and never is. Communication with residents, other agencies, and contractors is appalling, with contractors not showing or showing up unannounced. There’s a lot of “I can see why you’re frustrated” with zero accountability and actions to change.

What an absolute disgrace. Please do not use, or buy a property with livingcity management agency. I’m speaking on behalf of family members where they’ve been out of full use of their property for over 4yrs. How can they allow this to happen. The stress and loss of money is unacceptable.

This management company is by far the worst we’ve dealt with. They fail to carry out basic maintenance, do not respond to emails regarding ongoing issues, yet continue to issue invoices for services that are not being provided.
This situation is becoming unacceptable. Residents are paying for a service that is not being delivered, and there is a complete lack of accountability or communication.
We should come together as leaseholders and take collective action, as this is clearly unfair and needs to be addressed properly.

**AVOID** If I could leave minus stars I would! We’ve had some shocking property agents in the past but Living City top the lot. They are truly awful. Unable to provide accounts upon request, distinct lack of comms and just unprofessional. The only way to get rid of these organisations is to report them to the Ombudsman, which as leaseholders, we have.

Worst property management company took over management 2 years ago and have homeless people occupy the parking, pee, living there overnight. Service charge over 3k per year no facility, irresponsive, ignorant service, like this kind of property management company should close for good

their service is unimaginable insanely bad, all good reviews are fake.
I live in a property they change the fob system and only provide 2 fobs each units, landlord need 1 fob and our unit lives 4 people need 3 more fobs. From last week keep asking how to order the fobs, they keep asking questions and not provide the bank account for me to pay for the fobs for over 1 whole week, now the last step the fobs team who absent yesterday (because she is the only one working) and today ask me landlord's name and said need 24 hours to reply the bank details to pay for the fob. And do not know when they will mail the fobs. Means more days. They are the most ignorant inhuman property management company ever exist

Livingcity are an excellent client to work with. The team are responsive and I enjoy working with all of the site teams.

Worse than FirstPort

I've been a resident under Living City for over 18 months now, and I can confidently say they’ve been fantastic to work with. The management team is always professional, Victoria Harrison has been a dream to communicate with, always helpful and very knowledgeable.

A torrid time during the Cladding Crisis has coloured my opinon somewhat in that I felt they didn't necessarily always have Residents best-interests at heart, but instead answered to their Landlord, when it's the Residents who effectively provide their funding through the service charge. However in reality, that's a feature of any such Managing Agent.

That said, in the past two years or so I do feel that they have become more pro-active and do seem to listen more to Residents concerns.

In particular I have been impressed with the Senior Property Manager Robin Mussell who has always been very responive, helpful and professional in his handling of any issues.

It's also worth mentioning that in any dealings I have had with their Accounts Department they too have been friendly and helpful in responding to any queries.

I find the entire site team very approachable and responsive.
The building is in great condition and very clean.

i've called into the office a few times and been welcomed with a smile with whoever is on the desk and both Robin and Mitesh have answered any queries and helped.

I have been to a resident meeting where some news on insurances and rates had been discussed although there were some very upset residents(as they should be) Robin was very calm and handled the many questions very professionally.

Great job team keep up the good work!!

We are Directors at a complex in Didsbury.
After swapping and changing, we finally found our Management Company in Living City.
All our queries are answered promptly, and work attended to quickly and to a high standard.
We also bring in other builders of choice to compare prices.
Yes we are very satisfied.
Thanks go to Victoria our Manager.

Had a good experience particularly from Victoria H who helped navigate the freeholder and residential arrangements in a clear way

I've had a great experience with Living City Asset Management. They’ve been professional and responsive, and I especially want to highlight Robin Mussell, who was incredibly helpful in resolving an issue I had with my car park space. Robin handled everything efficiently and kept me updated throughout the process. It made a real difference and was much appreciated. Thanks again to the team!

I have found Living City, Robin Mussell, the Senior Property Manager and his team to have been most responsive to my requirements as an owner of a Greenquarter, Manchester apartment they manage. The service charge/budget reports are comprehensive and delivered in good time, and one feels the estate charges are well managed.
The three monthly owners/residents meet-ups via Microsoft Teams are most informative and detailed.
Following the issues with remedial works after Grenfell, Robin and his team were responsive to the funding/remediation requirements, initially with the Building Safety Fund and latterly with the developer. They have removed a lot of the stress regarding this process. All in all happy with the service levels.

Robin who leads the Green Quarter team has been great in terms of taking on residents feedback and implementing improvements within my building. He is knowledgeable about the development and proactive when it comes to making improvements.

One of the worst management companies ever. Maybe just after First Port but probably as bad as this lot. Level of service is almost not existing. They using some random contractors to deliver works. This is one of the examples to show how ''professional'' they are. We had a gardeners came to our estate and they removed most of the lovely green bushes from around our block. They were using kitchen knifes to do it!!!!!!!!!! Left a mess and broken branches. Now the area looks like there was a big storm that came, broke all the trees and left. Horrible, Horrible, Horrible Service. Unfortunately I can not attach photos!

We have a major problem with fly tipping here. I spoke with Martin (Gilder) he was very polite, friendly and professional. He listened to our complaint and dealt with it very quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately the issue is still occurring. We had suggested a solution and Martin is going to carry that forward. Hopefully we will achieve our objective. Thank you Martin for help and assistance.
