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

The development is well located. Just across the road we can find the Market as well as Victoria Leeds shopping center which has been rank #1 of the shopping center on trip advisor in 2026. There is also a convenience store which is always handy. It seems like the high proportion of the tenants are student so let’s see how they behave but so far I have not had any issues

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

The management team has been excellent since the first contact. I have been in contact with Amrit who has always taken the time to explain things and have little chat. She always comes back to emails or phone calls quickly with kindness and not rushing. I have also been in contact with Ben the maintenance manager who did a fantastic job has I have personalised the apartment upon moving, new furniture in the right colours, wall painting, TV mounting on the wall. He is very reactive, and do arrangements the same day.

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

That is not necessarily a negative point but so far I have not found the intercom system when we have visitors. I also find unfortunate not to be able to have another fob that would only give access to the front door and my door if I need someone to visit my cat when I am away. I have been told that concierge can do the visit but for an animal it’s way more comfortable and less stressful to have a familiar face to come and check that everything is ok.

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

The location is one of the biggest positives, very convenient for commuting, shopping, supermarkets, restaurants, and public transport. The area feels lively yet safe, and most amenities are within walking distance.

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

The building management has generally responded well to issues we’ve experienced. Last year, there were problems with the heating, but these were addressed effectively and efficiently. We also had an issue with the washing machine, and during the repair period we were provided with an alternative machine for around two weeks until it was fixed.

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

I wish I had known more about how the shared spaces are typically used day to day. At times, areas intended for working or studying can become more social spaces, which can make it difficult to concentrate if you need a quieter environment. Other than that, the overall experience has been positive.

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

Well kept apartments with some good amenities and great location. Staff are friendly and helpful (particularly Shari and Ivana). The gym is very good but could do with a couple of leg machines. There is some anti-social behaviour listed below unfortunately.

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

Shari and Ivana always do their best to sort any problems as best they can.

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

There are more students here than I expected when I moved in.

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

Very easy commute to work, good area for shopping and local food scene, great public transport options near by, like bus train and hire bikes/ scooters near by

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

They have always been quick to reply and have always fixed the problem first time

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

How high the council tax band was but that’s not a Moda issue

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

Overall, my experience living in the development has been very positive. The building is kept clean and well organised, and the management team has been supportive whenever assistance was needed. Any concerns I have raised were handled professionally, and communication has generally been clear and respectful. I feel that the staff genuinely try to maintain a comfortable environment for residents, which makes the property a pleasant place to live. Abdul has to be one of the best people I’ve worked with!

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

Majority of the time they are quick and get the job done which is good.

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

One thing I wished I had known before moving in is the amount of areas I will be getting in the building that are beneficial to use.
