Hi I sent this thread way back on the 28th November 1998.
I have quite a number of friends who have bought on a Polarise World site. La Torre, Mar Menor etc. and though there are always teething problems at first PW have always come up trumps in the end.
As for PW being in trouble financially.
No you have it wrong. PW Director has almost the same name as a director of a company on the Costa del Sol who built illegally. And it is he who has been told that rather he knock one of his buildings sites down he can sell the remainder properties at a lower price to local Spanish families.
I have a friend who bought on that particular site &completed last year.
She doesn’t appear too bothered as she lives on the site she feels it will be good for her to have the apartments permanently occupied rather than being a woman living alone on an almost deserted site.
As for Condado looking different from the original plans. This is nothing new. My son bought a 2 bed apartment here in England almost two years ago & it differed quite a lot from his initial viewing of the show home to apartment on completion.
There is always some small print somewhere that will tell you that “plans may change at the builder’s discretion." You just have to look for it.
And negative equity. No matter what country you live in. If you have bought over the past few years it will apply now
You just have to ride out the storm if you can.
A happy PW purchaser
This is my latest comment.
Stop slagging of Polaris. Stop bringing up old headlines.
My son`s apartment fell so low in negative equity that he never thought he would be able to move.
Luckily he has recently purchased a newly built house with his fiancée after a local builder offered them a fantastic deal.
To re kindle this head line is stupid. Yes we are in negative equity & yes there are people buying at a third of the price we paid but I have between having between 5 & 7 holidays a year on Condado & we would never have been able to do that had we not bought when we did.
So stop bringing up old news. It’s out dated & there are many of us who would not change a thing.
Jan.
