IKEA Malaga

Hi   have bought on phase 3 no 129  south was out in january  for mid term phase 3 is coming along well no one could give me a completion date (so what else is new). pool and park/seating area is very nice . Could any one give me any info on some one to supply and fit window grills and tv please. would like to thank pete and val for letting me know about this forum .  Glen and Dawn

Hi Glen & Dawn,

I did sent you a private email with some details of the people who fitted our grills - let me know if you haven't received it. As regards to tv - there will be an aerial point for Spanish tv in your apartment. With regard to satellite tv, this is something that is still being looked at by the development as the builders are supposed to suplly an aerial on each block for this also.

We have recently received minutes of the last meeting held which states that some of the aerials that people have put up will have to come down, also if you are having air conditioning put in there are rules about where the units can go on the outside etc.

So really to anyone just check before having anything fitted (grills are OK if they fit in with the rest), it's not worth wasting your money to have to have something taken down again.

We are out there again on March 20th so if anyone wants any photos or anything just let us know.

Oh also in the meeting minutes there was some initial rules for the swimming pool, however none of this will affect you until you have completed.

Regards

Pete & Val

Hello, Glen & Dawn,

We have purchased plot 130, we must be neighbours!  Nice to meet you!  As for completion date, we hoped for end of March 07, more likely June 07 according to agent.  Really looking forward to taking ownership.  We last went out there in Dec 06 and the developement was looking good then, so must have been even better on your visit. 

Hi Pete & Val,

May I ask you for details on grills etc.  any info would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Ellen & Jim

We have just arrived back last night after spending a week in Spain. We spent some time around the development and espacially phase 3. The weather was fantastic we were in La Matanza last Saturday and it was 30 degrees!

The building work is coming on by leaps and bounds. The main building work appears to be finished apart from the outside wall covering. All inside plasterwork is done and the first 6 apartments have had the kicthens fitted (I have photos I will send you Ellen & Jim) the tiling is complete on the floors (inside and outside) and on the stairs.

Before we all get too excited, when I told our solicitor how far the building work was ahead she cautioned me not to get too carried away as by the time the work is completed and the relevant paperwork is obtained  from the authoritys it will be late June. In her experience we may complete in early July but any later everything shuts down in August and it will then be September!

On a happy note we talked to people living on the development and all the break-ins have stopped!!! on two seperate days we were there we saw police patrolling in cars.

Oh, it would appear our little village/community is called "Las Siete Casas" translated this means "The Seven Houses' this sign is on the road up from La Matanva and also the other road from La Murada.

I will post pictures as soon as I can.

We also obtained our NIE numbers this week. We got them in Alicante as we were told by our Spanish solicitor that you cannot get them anywhere else anymore. if anyone wants more info of how we did it please send private message. We have also got an easy to read map off our solicitor showing were the office is in Alicante. I will send it to anyone who wants it.
