Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

No local shops, bars or restaurants. Facilities have been included and consist of one community centre. No healthcare in the development and very limited access to already stretched healthcare services. Street is mostly quiet apart from the occasional street racing.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local shops are alright, but they cater to very basic needs. I often find myself ordering groceries online for a better selection. Unfortunately, we don't have any big parks or green spaces nearby, and the small park we do have is not well maintained, especially the tennis court, which is in extremely terrible shape. Transport links are decent because we're close to the university. On my street, things are generally good. Parking is plentiful. Bin collections are reliable and on time. Fortunately, we don't experience much anti-social behavior, and traffic noise is minimal. Overall, it's a decent area.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Easy access to train station and nearby supermarkets. Locality is good as well.

What is the best feature of your home:

Locality is good with friendly neighborhood, best part is close proximity to train station

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local area is great; it ticked all the boxes. We're no more than 10-20 minutes walk away from everything we need, including shops, doctors, community hospital (no A&E), train station, pleasant walks, etc.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

They were working through our snagging list slowly but steadily. After six months, we discovered that one drain that had been regularly overflowing was not actually connected to the sewer. Their response to this major issue was pathetic and the only way to get their attention was to go through official complaints procedures and threaten going to NHBC.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Tell them you're going to bring your own building expert over on a regular basis during the build, and won't complete until everything is done to a good standard to your satisfaction. If they won't accept these terms, then walk away.
