Thanks for all your posts. To summarise, everything takes a lot longer than you anticipate. We had four or five Completion dates and Calidonia did not hassle us when we missed them, but they were missed for genuine reasons. If there was one request that made me wonder what on earth we were doing, it was when the Bank asked for our Blood Pressures!!! Having said that, once it was confirmed that we had completed, somehow, it all felt worth it. Even though, as everyone knows, I have been pro Corvera all along, you still have those little doubts in the back of your mind when you know you really will be Completing. But I now feel even more sure that we have done the right thing for us. We feel so confident that things will only get better. Roy has been, and still is being, brilliant and I can't recommend him enough. Henry from La Vida mortgages has been fantastic and can't do enough to help. If I can help anyone who is completing in any way, please ask. Still can't stop smiling :)

Great news Anita and congrats - thanks for your tips along the way. I am in touch with both Roy and Henry now too. Have agreed a provisional completion date of 30th November and I have to say Pablo at Corvera was very reasonable in helping come up with a sensible date since I am away for much of Oct. Fingers crossed! Paul

Hi Moll
Yes i have put photographs of the Mentas up on my site and they are close and wehat I like about them is the amount of glass so they should be really light inside
The advice remains that you should always wait for a COH to be issued and you will nit be forced to complete without one
Corvera arrange utility connections for free and the bills are paid by monthly direct debits straight out of yoyr spanish bank
I have produced a completion guide which explains the whole process andI know has been helpful to lots of people and is free to anybody even if they are not using my service
Just PM or mail me with your e-mail address and I will send you one

Hi,
I am also on Menta P2. I rang Calidona back in August they said that they were aiming for October but I have not received any phone calls or emails to confirm.Should I chase Calidona or just sit tight and wait?
Thanks in Advance

Congrats Anita,
Delighted for you, I'll be heading over to mine on Oct 7th in order to get all totally sorted for renting.
Probably a case of any excuse to get back over, I just love being there.
Hope to meet up with you soon, any of the neighbours I have met so far are great, should become a nice little community.

Thanks Gina and Ron. We look forward to meeting all those completing at some point along the way.

Anita,
Really pleased for you.
We were there last week and the site is really taking shape. Just wished that they were starting on our part of Phase 3. Still I firmly believe it will be worth the wait.
Anyway enjoy your new home and life .
My see you eventually in the club house.
Regards,
Colin and Ann

We got the nod that were to complete next month in Menta Ph 2 (I think Block 11 - we're on the first row you see from the old sales office) although I doubt we'll be ready till November. Still, can't wait. Might even get to toast the New Year there with a bit of luck, and a round of golf.

Hi all,
Thanks to some great help from Roy Howitt (and also from FCE furniture) my Corvera apartment is now available to rent. So if anyone is heading out to Corvera soon to complete and/ or prepare their own property for rental and would like somewhere on-site to stay, our Tilo (2bed 2bath, Phase 1) is now available.
Please PM me if you are interested.
Best of luck and regards to all my future 'neighbours'!
Thanks,
Ian
