Legal Tip 409

  Legal tip 409. Good for Murcia Appeals Court in favour of consumers! 

07 December 2010 @ 16:35 

Another good new today, a Court decission by Murcia Appeal Court by which it is established ( this has Case Law value), in accordance with other jurisdictions in Spain, that penalty clauses when consumers do not complete on off plan purchase contracts can be just of legal interests level ( 4-5% of amounts paid) 

This.... against what many contracts in the Murcia area established : loss of the total amounts paid by consumer to developer.

Again in application of Consumer Law and good faith and balance contract principles.

Again... another proof of a healthy legal system :)

Cheers!

Hi.

I have just looked on this blog after being away for over a year. I paid a deposit of something like £20k on an appt at UGR la Tercia but had to pull out becouse there was little prospect of me renting the property out due to the lack of promised amenieties. I tried to get a reduction in price but in the end the solicitors and UGR just didn't want to talk to me.  Has anyone been able to get any money back and does anyone know of any legal help I can get.

Thanks
