Residents pay a lot for those developments

I bought a flat few years back and since then the facilities around has changed. To be honest it was ok before with a lovely park just down the building. I would say that those changes were needed as much.
The design around they made nice and all is clean and well organized.
The only down side is my service charge gone up more than twice high since I bought the flat. And it’s about 400 a month now from 150(when I bought it) , which is too much now and I’ll look to sell the flat cos of that.
Before anyone buy a flat see the future development of the area as the service charge was going up and up every year and now it’s gone up for one year from 200£a month to nearly 400£(which nearly doubled). Too much for me having 2 young kids to look after. And the development does not pay me back as much as I pay for it!

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

The location is central so it’s great. What I was looking for. Great cafes, bars around, easy travel within city.

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

I wish I knew the service charges prices at least for the coming 10years before I bought a flat.
They kept increasing every year and this year almost doubled.

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

I didn’t raise any issues. So can’t share my experience regarding that.
