    Buying a new build in Milton Keynes: what we check

    • Estate charges: most new Milton Keynes estates have a management company and a yearly charge for roads and green spaces. We check the amount, how it can rise and the company’s accounts.
    • Shared ownership: common on new estates. We explain the lease, the rent on the share you do not own and the rules on buying more.
    • Roads and sewers: we check they are covered by adoption agreements with Milton Keynes City Council and the water company.

    How we worked this out

    We list developments of 10 or more homes found in council planning decisions, developer and housing association announcements and local news, checked every Monday. Sales figures come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data and are updated monthly; new builds take longer to be registered, so the latest full year shown is the year before last. Premiums compare the median new-build sale with the median resale of the same property type in the same year and are not adjusted for size or location.
