Review summary

Evaluating 3,315 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Consumers frequently praise the dedicated property managers for being exceptionally approachable, friendly, and highly efficient in handling day-to-day community matters and organizing wonderful social events. Many residents and visitors also appreciate the clean grounds, reliable assistance, and the positive improvements continuously made across the residential properties. Though some reviewers consistently noted frustrating delays with property maintenance, slow query responses, and frequent lift breakdowns within their buildings.

What a great relief manager

The relief manager Steve is doing a great job. He only comes for a few hours every week but everything gets sorted quickly.
He holds monthly meetings with residents and quickly provides minutes showing all the matters discussed with details of progress on outstanding items.
He is very aproachable and cheerful. A great asset to the location.

Andrea is an excellent manager

Andrea is an excellent manager
She is efficient, professional and thorough at all times and works to the book. In her approach to the residents and their families and other visitors she is consistent and treats everyone fairly . It has to be said that when necessary she stands no nonsense nor nastiness which I believe is overall.the best approach

Marian acts on requests from residents

Marian acts on requests from residents, in the general running of our home.
We see her at Wednesday morning coffee, where there is an interchange, between herself and the residents, working through topics/issues, to do with the building, or how things are done (refuse room usage, for example).

She's always been kind and fair to me, and doesn't mind my eccentricity, or however I come over.

No real complaints, thank you, well done.

With such an excellent Manager at Exeter Pegasus, my mother-in-law wouldn't have enjoyed her wonderful time here. Sivan attended to all the snags with prompt efficiency.
My eventual role as Executor was where Sivan was also so helpful at all times. She certainly enabled and smoothed the necessary sale and handover.
All in all, Sivan was and remains the vital key to a well run residence. Top marks and really well done!

We live on a firstport maintained estate and are in the process of removing their services and engaging another company.
We are hit constantly with extra charges above our yearly fee.
This is for past years as well as the current 2026 year.
The manager we deal with has suddenly vanished and emails bounce back.
The portal is not working either!
Charges for extra grass cutting? In a drought?
Fence repairs? Can we have a fence 1st please!
Admin charges are more than the costs for the actual maintenance work!
If you don’t pay, threatening emails are sent.
It is a shocking company and needs to be investigated!!!!!!!
Avoid!!!!!!
