Wendelburie Rise, NN8

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

We knew moving in there would not be facilities on site for a while. The score is low as there are current no facilitates. Design of the houses is good but the positioning of them could have been much better. More consideration for parking and gardens should have been given at the development stage . Bin collection is always late - usually by a day. Traffic noise is also bad as there are no speed bums on the main road leading to people speeding up and down the main roads.

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

It’s a nightmare having to book so much time off for people to come and rectify issues however they usually responded well to all of our issues.

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

It’s helpful to get family to support with checking the building for snags and don’t be satisfied until they rectify all of these to your liking.

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

Transport links for cars seem ok, but if we can have the sidewalks for the pedestrian on Irthlingboroughroad that would be great.

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

At the beginning half year, the response is very quick, then will be transferred to another customer service group which the response takes longer, but in general, the service is good and satisfied.

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

Currently can't think of any of them.

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

Good aspect: property is new, sales and after sales teams are great. parking is not a problem, bin collection is on time. Bad aspect: several theft cases, still under development so no local shops, restaurants, bars, etc.

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

take a lot of pictures of internal wiring, pipelines before plater board is on for easier future DIY job.

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

Redesign the loft and make it bearing minimum weight for storage.

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

Area is quiet with not much traffic at all. Most houses have off road parking although there are parking bays too

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

Wish the park would be completed sooner then expected. No public street bins on the estate

What is the best feature of your home:

Size of the bedrooms are good and location on the site

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

The development has not been built in a logical order and now the last part of this phase is being completed in the middle of hundreds of already completed houses. There is no parking for builders so parking affects current residents and the development is massively behind on getting shops/country park/play parks built and has exceeded targets.

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

Been slow to react and we are 3 months in with some major snags still outstanding despite reporting early on

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

I would have looked more closely at the house handover for snags and been less liniment from the start
