Hi all
We have just been informed by our solicitor that our apartment number 27 phase 2 is now ready for completion and the solicitor has the building certificate. So given that last week was a major Spanish Holiday the developer is on time! We were originally told end November so I don't think thats bad!

Hi Stan and Diane
Our agent is a local spanish one called Nova casa. They have been brilliant keeping us informed and dealing with things like NIE numbers and organising our choice of solicitor, helping us to choose a furniture package and will also carry out a full snagging service. They are also have negotiated with the developer that we will not finally sign for the apartment untill mid february as that is the next time we can visit spain. All in all a very good service especially the extra 1500 euros they have given us to help with furniture!!
Regards
Geoff and Hilary

Hi Geoff and Hilary, it is good to hear that someone has been given good service, have you made any decisions about your furniture, if so do you mind telling us where you are getting it from, we may get the furniture pack that comes free then it will give us time to shop around and replace it at our leisure. we still have not had a completion date but we really are not in a hurry, will be better once the pool has been finished,
regards

Hi Geoff & Hilary Glad to hear that your apartment is now ready, we completed in mid November which was on schedule with our original completion date of end of October. When you do complete and do your snagging, if there are only small things we found that instead of filling in the form from our Agent (Atlas) we asked Antonio (the site forman) directly he speaks reasonable English and he got it done straight away. As for the furniture allowance is that 1500 Euro on top of the 2000 Euro from the developer ? We got our furniture from Arca and are quite pleased with it for the price. But be aware that you may be pressured into upgrading, some things you will want to change some things you will not. We were taken to Arca at the end of a very busy tiring day and by that time our minds were not as sharp as they might have been, so beware. It is very easy to get small items locally from large supermarkets such as Eroski and Carrefore and Ikea is not too far away in Murcia. Neighbours already living in Hurchillo will be only to pleased to give you a few pointers in the right direction I am sure, so don't be afraid to ask for guidance on anything. Hope to meet you some time next year.
Regards Carol & Mick Faith No.17 Phase 2

Hi
We purchased our furniture from Arca in October on a weeks visit and have up graded to the next package up. They offset the 2000Euro voucher from the developer against the price and our agent will arrange for delivery and installation in february. The extra 1500 euro was a straight forward gift from the agent!! We can use it for what ever we want to buy extra. We are hoping to complete and sign on the 20/21 February have the furniture delivered and intalled on the 21/22 then have the rest of the week as holiday, hopefully!
Look forward to seeing you all.
Geoff and Hilary

Hi All,
Phase 2, No 35. We have received an e-mail from Iberian International to say our completion letter is on it's way, 1st week in january. Original date was 30th Nov.
I contacted my bank, Halifax in Torrevieja to tell them to sort out my mortgage.
They came back to me today and said "We have checked with the builders but they don't have the 10 year insurance or final work certificate"
Until this is in place we can't do anything.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
M & T

Hi M & T,
I have completed on No.6 Phase 2, but I did not do this until the "Acta de Finalizacion de obra" was signed before the Notary Public. This document, which included the the building completion certificate ("final de obra") and the ten years building insurance policy, confirms that the property has been legally completed. It should then be registered with the Land Registry.Your solicitor should be able to push this along.
I would strongly recommend that you follow the same path. Frustrating I know!
Regards.
Tony.

Hi All,
It was good to see that work is coming along on Olivia 22, phase 3 as we've heard very little from Iberian. As far as we know, completion is still aimed at end of Feb.
Does anyone have any pics of the development up by the pool end of phase 3 as we haven't any of our apartment yet!
Hope to get to know some of you when we do finally complete,
Carol & Neil
