Millwrights Place Viewing

Connor and the staff at Millwrights Place were very helpful during my viewing. Connor was friendly and took the time to give me a thorough tour of the facilities and apartment options available. He dealt with my questions very professionally. I left with the information I needed to proceed with my application. The necessary paperwork was forwarded promptly.

Great support from Deanne!

While I’m still in the process of signing the contract, I can say that after months of exhausting house hunting across the city, this experience was a breath of fresh air. Special thanks to Deanne for making everything so much easier with her quick responses, clear communication, and reassuring support. She also validated my concerns about moving on my own, which made a positive difference!

Happy experience with Grainger

Having been through the tough rental referencing procedure, we finally get the keys to our new home here. Hurrays…

Thanks Holly, Jack and the Resident Services Team for their effort, hospitality and service rendered.

Especially, we would like to thank Jack, our letting negotiator, for the warmest helps and professional advices given to us throughout the letting journey. Jack is friendly, polite, patience and considerate. He used to reply quickly to our questions which is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Great service by Molli Smyth

A big THANK YOU to Molli who has helped me in securing a good apartment in Clippers Quay! At first the plan was to look for a flat by myself and then it switched to a 2-bed apartments which are pet-friendly, but in the end it got back to 1-bed. Many thanks to Molli for helping me to locate different apartments under Grainger in different stages and she always responded to my enquiries and messages promptly! I am really pleased with her service!! :)

Super service by Jemma Herring

We have had a few landlords in the past. Certainly Grainger stands out for me as a top notch & caring landlord. We had the pleasure of Jemma Herring that assisted us with our lease renewal. Her service was excellent - she was polite, courteous, efficient, timely and on top of her game. It’s been a pleasure working with her. Such an asset to her company. Thank you to Jemma, Honey Campbell and the Grainger team.

And if you’re looking to rent accommodation, look no further than Grainger. 😉

I hate Grainger

Grainger has got to be one of the worst companies I've ever dealt with. I've been treated like dirt by them, like an annoyance over a complaint I made. When everything is working well, they're fine - just horrendously overpriced for a satisfactory apartment. When things go wrong, they'll just get defensive. As for their complaints procedure, it's a joke. I was not listened to empathetically and understandingly by single employee. The stress and anxiety of dealing with them has taken years off my life. Never again will I live in a Grainger property and I will discourage anyone I meet from doing the same.
