City House, N21

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

It's a very good area, lots of shops, cafes, restaurants and good transport links. Disappointed that they didn't allocate a parking space to each flat, which would have been good and fair. So only certain people had the privilege to have a parking space or even 2 spaces in the underground car park. Traffic noise is there, but isn't that bad once you get used to it.

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

Shared ownership is actually a bit of a con. You can only buy a certain percentage because on paper you don't earn enough for the banks to lend you more money, but the rent part is so high that paying that with your part mortgage comes to around the amount you would pay if you were able to get the full mortgage.

What is the best feature of your home:

It's hard to think of what is the best feature, as the general workmanship is to a very poor standard, that the whole flooring is uneven. But the carpet in the bedroom is quite nice.

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

Traffic. Close to road on front side on road emergency services used Bus park in front of building so always buses parked outside

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

I am not directly involved in group but there is some back and forth between residents and management

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

None. Building was as advertised and the documentation clear
