Intro 

"My name is Melanie De La Ford and I live in Wavendon Green in Milton Keynes. I live in the Drake house which is a two bedroom house, semi. Perfect because it's 

exactly the right size for me. Wavendon Green is great because it's situated near the motorway and easy distance from everything that I do; the gym, the centre and local shops. I'm always going to restaurants." 

Why did you choose Bloor 

"I chose Bloor because I'd looked up loads of different housing. I knew there was like two or three that I might have gone for but based on how other people had gone through it, you know, the process, I thought Bloor looked the best." 

Why did you choose Wavendon Green 

"Actually where this was situated was key for me I bought the house off plan. Because it was off plan I could choose all my items. Then I got a bespoke you know nice kitchen with quartz and I got really nice flooring and I upgraded the carpet and the bathroom, so it was just the way I wanted it. So the beauty of having a new build, the beauty of having a new build is that I can walk into the house and everything is done. I don't have to do any renovation, all I'd have to do is put my furniture in and that's really what I've experienced and start living because I'm a really busy person and I don't really like DIY. The best thing about the journey, about the whole journey was the Bloor sales team. I really got on with the two ladies that helped me and sometimes emailed them daily and they were great. I would recommend Bloor to family and friends because actually the journey's been fantastic and my house is amazing. So I definitely would recommend it."
