Hi Mervy

Have you checked to see if others are discussing your development on the respective message board ? Go to this page, there are many developments by the name "el-mirador" on it.

 http://www.eyeonspain.com/DevSearch.aspx?src=el%20mirador

Do let me know. Rarely do I get feedback.

Maybe others are buying there, Mervy, but just haven't registered for a development. Why not start one in the hope others, once they know there is one, will join you.  Got to start somewhere.

Best of luck asking on main boards. Are you moving over permanently ?

Mervy,

We are also purchasing in the El Mirador complex.

It would be good to kow others who are buying in the same area.

However, I have now been told that the Decmber 2007 completion date has been moved to March 2008 and that it could be extended, dpending on progress.

AJ

Who is keeping you informed because we are buying through atlas and they are TERRIBLE at keeping us informed.

We are also buying through Atlas, let me guess, you have been given Ashley Patten as your agent in Spain to deal with?

We went out in June, and it appears that nothing more than a few tiles have been added to the bathrooms since then.

I am having a tremendous struggle to get the guy in Span to answer a few basic questions.  I have taken this further as I need to sgin contracts by the end of the month and pay another 10%.

I am also worried by the ongoing saga about the rubbish dump that is proposed for the area, I have not got a response from Atlas about this yet.  I have also asked ny Lawyers to look into it.

Hi Merv,

I am trying to get more infomration on the Rubbish Dump saga, a friend sent me a picture of the locals demonstrating in Orihuela.

I have been asking other locals in San Muguel on their internet forum for some help in finding out whether this is a problem or not.  I have pushed Atlas for an answer and also my Lawyers, I will get to the bottom of it. 

I am Alan and my Wife is Tracy, we live in Luton and will be using this as a bolt hole for long weekends and long holidays initially.  We did like the idea of coming out for Christmas, but the contract we recived last week stated March 2008.  When we agreed to buy it was Dec 2007.

When we got the contract it also stated that the size of the property was avbout 4 metres less than the builders documentation. I am hoping that the fact that they are waiitng for my money and the signing of the contract means that they will finally start to answer some questions.

I guess the answer to your refund issue is whether they have put a date in your contract that says it is Nov 2007, my one states March 2008 + up to six months if they need it.

The questions aren't a problem, it is good to find someone else who is moving to the block.

I have asked Atlas when we should come out for the NIE numbers, with no response yet.  I think we are going to wait until the mid term visit.  We logged onto the Atlas website and saw that the development hasn't moved on much, with all the work still required, especially the pool etc. I cannot see how they ever thought it would be done in Dec 2007.

What does your contract say?

I know that Sainsh law is pretty tough around completion dates and specs etc.

That is why they have put the + up to six months in to preventthem having to pay compensation or refunds.

Does yours say Nov 2007?

Hi Mervyn and  Edna,  Alan and  Tracy

Mervyn, you said " Have tried to register on new developments but where it says LOCATION and i put in torremendo it just goes blank for some reason and does not register." When I did it I got these listed below. I realise these are not yours BUT it could be good for you to register with both as you would maybe find out more about Torremendo from any members in these.

Can I suggest you don't tell a public forum which plots you've bought & keep that between yourselves in PMs ? It is basic security really. You really ought to edit that bit out.

Alan & Tracy, a warm welcome to the EOS forum. Glad you have all found each other to chat to as it makes the stress of buying more bearable.  

 

Select Development Location Coast
El Almendro Torremendo Costa Blanca
Lakeside Mews Torremendo Costa Blanca
