Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

I would say it is quite close to bars and shops. It is not far from a place called green room which is in the city centre two or three little bars and restaurants in the little Square right infront of the flats there is also a Sainsbury’s and a Tesco express nearby which you had the can be on the expensive side but the convenience of them being there is quite nice obviously with it being on a main road busy times in the morning you could obviously hear the traffic coming through but it doesn’t last too long. I would also say the parking next to it. There’s no one on the street parking so if you’re wanting to just visit friends or family, it is quite expensive to park nearby.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

All issues I have raised have been responded to there’s been nothing that I have said that hasn’t been acknowledged

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

It would’ve been helpful to know about them nearby parking I think when friends and families come to visit I wish it just wasn’t so expensive

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

It is a very lovely to live in and convenient to nearby supermarkets. Area is quiet at night which is good for residence to wind down the night.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Every response has been great, actions were taken promptly. However, during the process of moving in, TURAs email system was having an issue and we did not get updated about our move in status, which was a bit of a hiccup, leaving us a little uncertain. Despite that, everything was sorted within a few days.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

More clarification on electric provider and water provider.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The building is situated near the Wellington place office blocks so you are on the doorstep of Sainsburys local, coffee shops and restaurants. Plus, the canal is just behind offering walking routes to cafes and bars on the river.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Promptly and efficiently. Being a new build there has been a couple of snags, however they have responded and fixed them very quickly. They are also great at completing alterations requests.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Views from the apartments are great and parcels are safe in a parcel room.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

TURA is located really close to lots of shops like Sainsbury’s and Tesco, as well as a wide range of restaurants and bars. A real plus is how close it is to the canal which offers a relaxing place to sit and walk. It’s a great street to live on for being close to everything you need.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Quickly and appropriately, fixing any issues we had

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I can’t think of much, just glad that once moved in we could experience all the benefits of such convenient living

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

With the location being as central as it can be, the local area provides unlimited choice of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops. The train station is only a five minute walk away which makes transport links incredibly convenient. The development backs onto the river/canal which is great for nice waterside walks.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management team, as well as, the maintenance team are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Any issues (no matter how small) have been seriously taken and swiftly resolved. From the very first viewing to once I'd settled in, Steve Houghton was extremely responsive and on hand to help with any queries or issues (including providing updates which is always much appreciated).

Nothing - just how nice of a place it is to live! After an underwhelming search for a flat in Leeds City Centre, I just wish the development had been available sooner!
