1This development review is rated 1.0 out of 5.0. Leaf are poor!
Overall, whilst the development has the potential to be a lovely place to live, there have been a number of ongoing issues that have significantly affected our experience as residents. The design and layout of the properties are generally good, and the homes themselves provide a good living environment. However, the wider development and communal facilities have been disappointing. There are ongoing concerns around unfinished roads, drainage, landscaping and the general maintenance of communal areas. It is frustrating that certain aspects of the development remain incomplete, with the developer having indicated that building work may not resume until 2028. Building and property management have also been inconsistent. Communication is not always as clear or timely as it should be, and residents can be left chasing for updates and resolutions to issues. The reliance on the Leaf Living app for property management and payments has also caused frustration, particularly where payments and account administration have not worked as expected. Residents should feel that they are getting a well-managed development, with issues dealt with promptly and clear accountability from both the developer and property management company. There is considerable potential here, but improvements are needed in communication, maintenance, completion of outstanding works and overall management. I would like to see a more proactive approach, with realistic timescales, regular updates and greater consideration given to the concerns raised by residents.

Slow! Poor app process and very frustrating. 2 years on and still having to use wife account to log in!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Putting prices up each year, “in line with Zoopla” then upon vacating marketing the house at the rate it was when we moved in. Disgusting. Stay clear of LEAFY LIVING

5This development review is rated 5.0 out of 5.0. Great home . Great experience
The development is quiet all the houses are well maintained. We have a lovely sized garden which gets the sun all day . The design of the house is well thought out . Really good sized utility room . The whole process of applying and moving in was so easy . Ryan explained everything clearly and was very helpful on moving day .
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The development is so peaceful . We have moved from a more rural location and Daisy drive is more quiet . Less traffic . Love being able to walk to local shops and the leisure centre . Our teenage daughters love that they just have a short walk to bus stops which gives them more freedom .
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We have not had any issues yet . Feel confident they will be dealt with quickly though , based on the overall experience we have had so far .
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Some basic things could have been supplied , such as toilet roll holders . Not a problem though as they are inexpensive and easy to fit .

4This development review is rated 4.0 out of 5.0. Good property, watch out for leaf increasing rates though!
The home itself is great, although Leaf living struggle to respond to emails - who ever deals with renewals is just plane rude. It's a shame as the property as I say is fab, the initial experience and experience with getting faults rectified is great.
Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
A great place to live - access to shops by foot and plenty of walking areas nearby. A great location with good connection.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
All issues have been dealt with pretty well however the property is still under warranty
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I knew that Leaf would be greedy with the rental increases - its sad. The climate we're in, they really didn't need to do such.
