Legal tip 512. Most recent Spain Supreme Court´s on linking character of publicity
27 April 2011 @ 18:03

Supreme Court decisions on linking character of publicity in off-plan purchases

The most recent Court decision by the Supreme Court on the linking character of publicity is dated the 8^th of March 2011.

The Supreme Court has reiterated established that "there is an essential obligation by the seller to provide what it was included in contract, quality specifications and publicity, which integrates the content of the contract."

Moving ahead with Consumers protection: balance to the market.

Cheers,

Maria

Dear Maria,
Many thanks for this comment, However, where do the thousands of people like myself stand when the Builder/Architect of the apartment we purchased in 2007, has failed to complete the complex ie: taken €900 in cash for the meters of all Services to be installed. Failed to build the roadway into the complex, Failed to complete the drainage, stolen the complex's emergency water pumps & motor, Signed the complex of as complete and still trading under other company names.
Over 3 years since we completed the purchase and we have no habitation certificates. no Utility service Meters. no road surface, and paying €60 a month in community fees. Where do we stand with this rogue Builder/Architect.

As he is probably bankrupt and the funding Bank might probably end up keeping the development, I would recommend you to review if an action against the Financial Institution is possible.

When did you actually complete? Did you use a solicitor for completion?

I would be very pleased to give to you further orientation if you email me to: web@costaluzlawyers.es

Thanks,

Maria
