Nothing

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

New co-op opened recently means there is now a local shop but apart from that no other amenities near by. Excellent transport links to reading and Wokingham by bus. Parking is available however no restrictions means that people park outside peoples housing which is annoying. No traffic noise or anti social behaviour as of yet.

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

Not dealt with or responded to issues with garden despite numerous times it has been raised.

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

Get advice from a neutral mortgage advisor and not one developers suggest

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

Good local shops and several local cosy pubs, close to towns like Wokingham and Reading but still somewhat secluded. Very limited parking often have to park on the road which is a walk away. Whole estate has very little parking bays. Bin room is no properly cleaned and people have fly tipped - sofa, furniture etc in it and has been there for a few months.

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

Setting up bills was hard as I had to chase up who my supplies where as I wasn’t told when I moved in and only months after when I chased it up multiple times.

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

Local shop only 5 minutes walk away. Post office 5 min away bar car. Very close to other shops by car which provides a variety of choices. Close to train station (car ride). Only one bus service available (no 3), the ride is quite long, would be beneficial to have a shorter route bus that goes to the train station. Very little parking available for people who have more than 1 car, this is a real issue as we were told we are not allowed to use visitor parking. Bin collection every week, but the bin storage room is messy, should be more organised. Traffic is light even though we are close to the main road.

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

Until now the response was fast and they solved my queries very quickly.

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

Setting up utility bill accounts.

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

Local facilities are limited but due to increase in time. Easy access to Wokingham and Reading for all services however. Pleasant development, quite street with nice neighbours. People do not stick to parking rules and not enforced.

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

Not Applicable. The developers were on sight at the point of move in so provided support whilst here.

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

The busyness of the main road at peak school hours. Traffic backs up making it difficult to get out of the road.
