Problems with El Balcon de Moratalla

I have a Spanish solicitor working on my behalf to try and recover 38,000 euro's paid to the builders.
At this present time my solicitor cannot find any information or establish any contact with the builders even after sending two registered letters to the builders quoted address. He can also find no trace of any bank guarantees and no record of planning permission,it would appear no building work has started and may not ever start.

My solicitor is carrying out further investigations on my behalf in order to legally resolve this matter,if anyone else has had similar problems or has any relevant information it would be good to hear from them  through this message board.

In my opinion with the documents I have now from my client, I understand most of the customers should sue PROGOFER CALIDAD S.L. as they are permanently in a breach of contract and are not guaranteeing the payments done.

We have sue them through a civil action, and I understand that others have started through the criminal way.

One or the other I understand should be started in order to get protection asap.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any queires.

Sincerely,

Here's the rub.

Many posters on this and other forums slag off their agents.

Yet when the agents saw through this sordid mess, and arranged for legal letetrs to be issued recommending withdrawal from this development, as the developer had lied to all and sundry why are we still in November 2008 and people are waiting for their money back.

Why would an agent lose a perfectly good sale by telling clients to pull out if the rat they smelt in March and April was not very smelly.

Why did people carry on regardless

Did you believe the smokescreen coming out of developers office?

Some large corporate / multi office / national advertising type agents are a little too shady for most, but they represent only about 10% of the market, the vast majority of agents are hardworking, honest and endeavouring to work hard for clients

I agree, once (good) agents (like ours) understood what was going on they withdraw from promoting this development and did issue letters recommending not to buy here. I understand El Balcon are still promoting their site, is this correct? I am waiting for a response back from them directly and as to what there future plans are for the site. Is anyone still looking to buy there/have purchased since April?

This development will never be built!

They don´t have any money....They dont own the land....They don´t have planning......They don´t have bank guarantees

The development they were promoting at Alhama has been closed down by the council and posted as illegal on all council websites etc.

The site is overgrown and no one at the sales office!

It´s a scam!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, many thanks for this important update.

 

take a look on this site:

I represent on litigation. I did not represent anyone on purchasing as I understand nothing has been done correctly by the builder. We are in the notification phase by the Court of Murcia, so we are more or less at the beginning as the claim has been accepted but need a response by the builder.

This is just a Spanish translation of posts on Eye on Spain what is this supposed to prove? Am i missing the point?

Sorry izzy999. you are correct, if you want legal information I will give it to you.

I just wanted  to give you more information, but I can see that is already from eos which I have not seen. In the claims I represent, we know they do not own the land, we know they do not have licence (not even planning projects) and they do not have bank Guarantees. We do not know if they have money or not, but in the meantime the claim is already in progress (civil action) and we will start a criminal proceeding once we know they are run out of money (from hundreds of purchasers). I just represent a few claims.

We are still on the begining. None of you should have made any payment unless simultaneously they give you a bank guarantee, and I understand that some of you even applied for the services of a Lawyer. This is the only way you guarantee this problems, and of course going to Courts do not guarantee that you will receive the money paid, but now I understand is the only way to go ahaed againts the builder.
