"Hughman" has got it correct. I had a meeting with our Administrator yesterday and it is likely we "carry over" to next year as there doesn't appear (as yet) to have any pressing issues to discuss - but we do have some difficult owners who just like to go against the grain just to make them relevant.

First time in Ten years I won't have to listen to their abuse at the AGM when in truth all our owners know we have a very well run beautiful community.

 

Salud, and stay safe

A lot of community meetings are being held over for a year, with the "current status" being held, in other words the President remains in office for another year along with the current committees. If there is an important matter to discuss (a large financial project for instance) it is done by email votes. 

All seems perfectly sensible to me as in September not many people will fly out to Spain to take part in a community AGM.

Have a word with your administrators they will (should) be in touch with the President and will probably already know the answer to your question.

You just need to apply for a "longer stay visa" usually you can do this by the Spanish embassy, it is not difficult.

If you visited the USA you have to apply for a Visa, even for a short holiday stay, it really is not difficult.

Mariedev wolud probably be able to help you with this, She will be on in a minute

You are allowed to stay in any European country for 90 days out of 180 days.

The easiest way to check how many days you can stay is to count backwards 180 days, count how many days you have stayed in any (or mulitiple) European countries

deduct htat from your 90 and you have the answer to how many more days you can can visit and stay in a European country.

 

Moving around different countries still counts towards you 90 days. ie you can't fly into Spain and go home via France thinking the clock resets, it doesn't, it still counts towards your 90 days.-

Just to clear up a few problems regaurding terraces in Spain.

The terrace is owned by the owner of the property.

However it regulated by the Community. Owners cannot do whatever they like with or on their terrace, example would be TV dishes if this is disallowed, 

here on Mijas Costa this is disallowed by the Town Hall, or painting the terrace a different colour from the community colours)

Regarding the leak from the OP the general rule is that there is provision that if the terrace has been poorly maintained then any leak into the property below is the responsibility of the owner above. Some communities use the rule that if the membrane on the terrace (under the tiling) is damaged then it is without doubt the responsibility of that owner, insurance companies also use this rule, this would probably be why the insurance company refused the claim .

KNOW YOUR RULES!

Hope you get the leak reolved soon.

Best wishes
