Discovering an Exceptional Landlord Experience in London
Having spent eight years residing in London, I’ve encountered my fair share of housing challenges, ranging from persistent dampness and mold to infestations of tiny bugs originating from the pipes. Like many renters, I found myself paying full rent even as extensive damp-proofing work was done on the entire property, which left the plaster stripped down to the bare brick walls. During this period, most of my belongings had to be squeezed into a shed, and without alternative accommodation provided, I resorted to living in a tent for nine days.
However, after navigating these less-than-ideal circumstances, I have finally found what seems to be a rare gem in the London rental market—a genuinely attentive and responsive landlady. Unlike my past experiences, she promptly addresses any issues that arise, without any hassle. For example, when my washer stopped working, she didn’t just repair it; she opted to replace it entirely and even upgraded our setup by adding a dryer, although the original setup only included a washer.
Moreover, it’s remarkable that over the last two years, there haven’t been any rent increases, which is quite a pleasant surprise given the typical rental trends in the city.
I’m happy to share this positive experience with you all, and I assure you this isn’t a promotional message! Just genuine gratitude for finding a landlord that truly stands out.
