Local estate agents would know, as would some of the owners.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Why don't you be a bit cheeky and knock on someone door and ask them,obviously only if you feel safe doing that ???0

That is pretty cheeky and, bearing in mind it's quite a commuter area, I'd probably get slapped for asking!0

As it would still be covered by NHBC warranty (probably) - would they be able to tell you? Not sure, just a thought.MTC NMP Membership #62 - made it back to size 12 after my children & I'm staying here!0

Just a thought.
I have lived a new build for the last 12 years and when we moved in from new we had people asking where they could get new paving slabs from and where did we get our pots from and even some people asking how much we paid as they were thinking of buying some of the ones still being built!!
However I do live in a nice ,friendly, 'safe' part of Surrey.
As silvercar said ask local estate agents??0 -
The deeds/land registry title might show that the property was conveyed from (A) - the builder - to (B) the buyer.
If there are any covenants, then the builder as the original owner would almost certainly be named.Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac
