I am not one to write many reviews but I am quite angry.
SAL might be great for the owner of the property but when your a tenant and a really good tenant there is nothing in it for you. We lived in a property for 12 months, when moving in there was still cob webs, lots of dust, marks on the walls and lots of general cleaning to still be done. I listed this on the sheets to hand back once completing my checks. We lived 12 months with a broken bedroom window that had a crack in it and our back door was broken on the bottom hinge when moving in and not once did we mention or ask for it to be fixed
