Penthouse completion dates ??

Just took a phone call from Susie at Polaris customer service in answer to an e/mail I sent them earlier this week. The news on the Penthouses (to my amazment) is apparently ,completion and handover in November / December this year !!

What happened to 1st quarter of 09 I asked ?, she laughed and said they were well ahead of schedule and it would be good to deliver early rather than late as usual !

The Penthouse show appartment/s will be ready in June and she advised to call in advance to check availability and readiness if we wanted to view - the number of the sales office at condado to arrange this is 00 34 - 968 012 098

I asked about the golf course views from the penthouses and apparently the course wil be ready by Feb 09 (dont know if this is a playable date) I also asked about the town centre re-siting and she promised to send me the revised map and also any progress shots of the Penthouses themselves.

We are out end June for the week so I will upload any shots I take then.

Its all suddenly starting to seem very real now  - it was a long way off in May 07 when we brought and now we need to sort out the mortgage !

Have a good long weekend all

Hi snorkychopper

Thanks for the update.  We are buying a penthouse in block 11 and are going out at the end of September.  Any information you can provide on mortgages will be really helpful.  I don't know when to start the process but will probably go for the builders mortgage.  It is all very exciting but a little daunting too what with all the financial doom and gloom over here.

Tony and Liz,
Good to hear from you as my wife and I are also buying a penthouse in block 11 - 1st floor (P1115). Apparently some show penthouses are opening THIS MONTH !!! I'm hoping completion will slip to early next year - get Christmas out of the way and get the £ up against the euro.

Hi Elaine and Kevin

Nice to hear from you too.  We are on the ground floor so no throwing things down to us (ha ha, we are all far too upmarket for that aren't we?).

We were lead to believe from our sales rep that they won't be ready until Feb/March and he said that we won't complete until the golf course is ready as that is why we have bought front-line golf appartments.  He said he definately won't be completing on his property until the course is ready.  I suppose this is something only a solicitor can inform you about but I am sure that we will complete when Polaris say which will be before the course is ready.

Like you, we would prefer to complete after Christmas as I don't really fancy sitting on orange crates eating christmas dinner.
