Hi
We got an email from our solicitor today telling us the following:
Further to the purchase of your property number 12, La Atalaya, Garrucha, we have been in contact with your builders and they said that they have not got the building licence still ready. Apparently they could have some information in about 2 weeks . At the moment nothing has been built yet it is only the hole.
I think this is going to be a long drawn out process!!
Regards
John and Shona

"This is the very first week that Spain has started to get back to work, marvellous race, take the whole summer off. We have progress meetings booked with your developer for the week after next / will forward information as soon as we get it."
thanks for the posting our apartment is number 30.
As soon as we hear we'll be in touch.

Hi everyone I received two weeks ago a copy of a letter from the developers solicitor explaining that the developoment was starting. The delay was due to the name on the deeds being the original owner. My lawyer then confirmed this. If anyone wants to see letter send email address. My apartment is 24

Hi everyone - just seen this and thought I'd join in - we visited 'the hole' in August and were very disappointed that nothing had started - we got the same excuse that the builders do not work during the summer but we stayed in Mojacar on the Golf Course and building was going on all around us there - so it's hard to believe a lot of what we are being told! Has anyone got a copy of the builders Banker's Guarantee yet! We have been promised one but, not surprisingly, so far it has not arrived! I will watch with interest for anymore news from the message board and will pass on anything we get - we will hopefully be Apartment No 6

we had an email from our agent today filling us in with latest, I quote:
"We have been told that the problem with Garrucha is that the company that sold the land to Mar y Casas did not pay their contribution to the infrastructure of the area, which they were contractually obliged to do. This has now gone to arbitration and should be sorted in the fairly immediate future."
anymore news I'll let you know.

Hi It does look quite promising at last:- Our solicitor has confirmed that the builders have said that the licence and Bank garantee will be available in 14 days from last Thursday.
At last it appears that we are being told the same thing.

Hi,
Heard from our estate agent and he has yet another story!!!
Apparently Mar y Casas had only been granted planning permission for one apartment block and then when they decided on three, planning permission was not granted due to objections from the apartments which are currently front line. He tells us that the builder is holding out to try and obtain the planning permission as he obviously spent a lot of money on the land and wants to get the maximum return. We have asked the question, if that is the hold up, why does he not begin the first block and continue to fight for permission for the other two blocks - there does not seem to be anyone who can give us an answer to this question!
It might be worth asking other lawyers estate agents etc if they have heard this latest reason.
Our estate agent is supposed to get back to us early next week as he is meeting with the builder, so will keep you posted!
Regards
John and Shona

Our solicitor has advised us of the following (by e mail):- the electricity company (Sevillana) has experienced problems with access, this has now been sorted out.
The project has a favorable endorsement by the town hall and will be presented to the government commission next week, then two weeks after that the building license will be granted by the Pleno of the Town Hall. (I guess this is positive news)!!
We will continue to seek clarity.
