Happy story about agent and buying in Spain

I have today found out that our friend Raul is the current President of the Community of Owners. I have asked him to let me know about how to organise an AGM to elect a President from the owners. He has told me that the funds we pay per month only cover for an upkeep of the site and that there is no money available to cover the cost of Satellite installation which he somehow has estimated at 15,000 euros !! I'm really not sure where he has got this figure from but I'm sure we can do better. Once we get together we can have more of a say in improving the site. ie. replacing the hideous fence around the pool, sorting the problem about security and the always open gate, Satellites, or whatever suggestions there might be. I'm still unsure about how phase 1 links with the more recent phases with regards the fees, I have heard that owners on phases 2 and 3 have been using the pool in phase 1, but who's paying for its upkeep ? There is a lot to talk about which we can all do at an AGM. I will post again with further information from Raul when I have it.

UPDATE - Just to let anybody know that I have not heard back from Raul the developer or Lawrence from the administrator Condominium Services. After sounding positive to start with, neither of them have had the decency to return my messages. I have asked both of them to call an AGM and invite all owners to attend. Raul has told me that the funds are very low because lots of owners are not paying their fees. The President of another Community has told me that any empty apartment fees have to be paid for by the developer ! Draw your own conclusions as to who is not paying. At an AGM the administrator will bring all the costings with him so we can see who is not paying and use the law if necessary to help. I may be surprised and receive a letter shortly informing me of an AGM, somehow I doubt it. I can't do anymore than I have already. If any owners want to contact Raul or Lawrence and ask about the AGM, their contacts are raulasanchez@hotmail.com and 'ljordan@condominium-net.com'

Good luck
