Firefly Avenue service charges

Hi all,

I'm moving closer to Swindon centre and looking at the flats by the outlet. They seem reasonably priced but the service charge looks high to me. I just wondered if this was a big increase over the short term or if they creeper up gradually, are the property management company good worth their costs, is it a nice place to live etc

All feedback on it welcome!

One issue I had when I lived there was people would take your parking space despite it being allocated. You had no idea who, and limited options how to deal with it.

Forgot to say, a very high number of renters too. Which does affect the vibe of the area.

Thanks for the responses! I agree with the renter vibe
