This seems a very helpful forum, so I wonder if I could have some advice please.

I live in an 8 year old Community in Rojales, comprising 88 houses. The Community is well established with all mains utilities (electricity and water etc).

About 4 years ago most residents received their Cerificate of Habitation. The 'batch' of certicates were delivered by the builder to the Community President (now deceased).

(I realise I should have pursued this earlier).

We were not around at the time, and also it was reported that the builder lost some of the certicates!  We understand that along with other builders, they are either not in existence or in Administration.

A resident went to the Town Hall last November (they said that they had lost their original, even though they'd never had it). They received their copy 2 weeks later.

I'm trying the same. Applied at the end of July. Have been back twice, but still haven't got it. The woman in the Rojales Technical Office just shrugs her shoulders and indicates (I think) to come back later in the month.

I'm putting the delay down to the August holiday period (I could have picked a better time). But on the other hand should I plan for the worst case scenario (ie no original)? In which case what do I do?

Any advice will be very welcome.

Thank you,

Peter H
