A Guide to Living in Milton Keynes

Please review your development:

The building is bright and elegant. The facilities are wonderful, always clean and with people enjoying their daily living. The management team is always around and happy to help. Any deliveries get placed in myrenzbox which makes life a lot easier for all residents.

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

That there is a great sense of home and community.

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

Always happy to take responsibility and fix anything that has or could go wrong in the future. Very quick and efficient.

Please review your development:

Good – the location is great for access to Central Milton Keynes shopping centre, the train station, and is very close to lots of bars/restaurants and a large supermarket. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the amenities are great with gym & cooking classes, a good sized co-working area including sound-proof booths.

Bad – After living here for nearly a month I have nothing negative to add.

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

I wish we knew that we could have access to the underground carpark to unload our stuff when moving in.

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

One of the switches on a plug socket didn’t work and this was investigated and resolved really quickly.

Please review your development:

I love my property, the quality of the materials are great but the problem is the labour, it’s a luck on that, you have to check properly.
I bought the property a bit outside the central area which I love, and if you have children or want soon I think is something you should consider, also because it’s a residential area everyone can use cars but is not like proper streets for high speed which makes it safe.

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

I was expecting to have shops around much quicker, also to much dust because is still in construction.

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

They tend to respond but until you get what you expect from them takes a bit of a time…

Please review your development:

Terrible build quality and equally terrible property management. I’ve been waiting over 3 years for Crest/NHBC to repair my property which leaks in large amounts of rain water. There is lots of mould as a result. This is all due to Crest not following building regulations and NHBC not bothering to inspect the property properly.

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

I wish I’d known how low the build quality was by Crest. I wouldn’t of purchased the property had I known.

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

Yes but not to an acceptable standard. The build management company care as little as Crest and NHBC about their customers.
