Staff are lovely

The flat is lovely, but the boiler was broken had to be repaired, one of the windows are broken with no hinges on, our telecom was completely out of date different model to the system, and we have no form of help with flooring when we came from absolutely nothing, apart from that it’s a home at the end of the day.

Beautiful house

We were in such need for an affordable two bedroomed house due to having a baby. We were contacted and offered a property and less than a week later had signed and moved into the property.
The property is beautiful, a pristine new build

I cant thank derwent enough, communication was great and everything handled so quickly

Ok..

It's a great size. But very annoyed that there was faeces in both toilets and one had not been flushed. You would think this would be checked before letting. I also have a boiler that doesn't work and low water pressure. Again you would think this would be checked before.

1.The Flat should be more cleanned up.
2.The entrance door of the Flat needs a handle to open up from the out side.
3. The entrance door of the Flat should not be auto locked.
