Local issues considered by Milton Keynes Conveyancing Solicitors:

New builds in Milton Keynes:

The National House-Building Council (NHBC) is based at NHBC House, Davy Avenue, Knowlhill, Milton Keynes, MK5 8FP, and issues warranties and insurance for newly-built properties nationwide.

Road and Rail Construction

Transport projects are rightly a concern for homebuyers, given both the disruption they can create, and the long-term impact they can have on a house's value. Your solicitor will undertake relevant searches to show:

• If the residence is within 200 metres of:
• a new road
• a planned underpass, flyover, roundabout, or bridge
• road widening
• a proposed rail or tram route
• If any road adjoining the residence is maintained by the council
• Proposals for any adjacent road to:
• make it one-way
• close it off or divert it
• introduce parking or speed restrictions
• introduce width or weight restrictions

While buyers are unlikely to proceed if a home is in the direct line of a new road, they may be happy to go ahead if it appears that the building will not be directly affected.

Transport Developments:

Works underway in the region possibly affecting buyers include the dualling of A421 from M1 Junction 13 to the M40, and the expansion of the Redway network.
