I've never heard of this company and doing a quick search on Google doesn't bring up anything either. Their website has been up since October 2006. If you are considering buying through them then I would advise you to get client testimonials, etc, and ask questions...lots of them! Sorry can't be of more help.

23 Feb 2008 6:48 PM Phil&Rebecca Parcela I've made 1 posts Send private message to Phil&Rebecca	Hi there I would like to let you know that I have heard of Quantum Villas. We have seen their development area 2 or 3 times now and love it. We were introduced by 2 estate agents, however we chose to use Solymar in Albox. The development is in El Saltador. We have chosen our plot of land and are currently going through the contract process. The build spec and house styles are top quality from what we can see. We have met with the owner of the developing company and his new assistant. So far communition with them through email is fantastic. They seem honest and have nothing to hide. They have provided us with copies of all the required land permissions and certificates. We are still be cautious and excerising all rules that you would normally use in the UK when buying a property. Useful book if you are buying abroad is Buying a home in Spain by David Hampshire ISBN 1-901130-19-3. If you follow this and your common sense you should be ok. We currently live in Brixham. Hope this helps. Spam post? If so please click here to report it

There may be some paperwork, but what about the actual licences to build? This point and other legalities are being checked out for us as we speak. You should always use an agent that does the whole job for you. Most are happy to help you find the property but then vanish when it all goes wrong. As I said, be careful and very good luck to you all! Spam post? If so please click here to report it

13 Mar 2008 8:52 AM cgedwards Parcela I've made 5 posts Send private message to cgedwards	Sounds great.. This is why we have looked at them. Have been dealing with a company who have been in Spain for many years. Comprehensive services from start to moving in.. They have shown us the properties and location and it is lovely, but as advised, we are not parting with our cash until all of the correct paperwork for these are in place. Inland properties are well prcied and they will always be available. So unless you really have to, would not rush into anything. Better safe than sorry, we have worked hard for our money.. Spam post?

13 Mar 2008 3:10 PM spanishsolicitor Studio I've made 32 posts Send private message to spanishsolicitor	Rowland sbb said "Also Huercal Overa Council are now very strict about infrastructure and in allowing only building with full permits Bank Guarantees for your deposit" The major of Huercal-Overa regarding his PGOU is accused of corruption and graft. Town Halls in Spain can not impede construction works because lack of Bank Guarantees Rowland sbb said "they can not get the Licencia de Obras until you have decided on the house design you want on the plot you like" My advice: Don´t pay anything until you have in your hands a valid Building Permission. Check this out Taxes & purchasing costs of Quantum http://quantumvillas.com/buying_taxes.php Prices do not include VAT/IVA; The example set out below is an approximate guide in euros to the costs of purchasing and running a .... Purchase price 225,000 IVA (7% Spanish VAT) 17,500 Legal Costs 4,000 It is really a good rate, I mean for the lawyers of Quantum. Town hall tax (plus valia) 200 Plusvalía is always paid by the vendor Water rights of connection & meter 300 It must be paid by the vendor, developer Electricity supply contract & meter 300 It must be paid by the vendor Felix Spam post?

13 Mar 2008 3:18 PM cgedwards Parcela I've made 5 posts Send private message to cgedwards	Ownership of the land is not finalised to a satisfactoy standard. Debts also against it, and the current owners. No actual licence to build.. Concerns, that if 10 plots are sold, and say four are not, who will buy these and when. If and when allowed to build.. They will not build here until the plot is paid for.. You may be living next to a emty plot for years, or even end up with a building site next door for lengthy time.. All areas to consider.

13 Mar 2008 4:59 PM rowlandsbb Adosado I'm in Macclesfield Cheshire >>> Huercal Overa I've made 368 posts Send private message to rowlandsbb	Plots are 200 m2 or 400m2 as standard and there is a good choice of villas 12 plots on first phase You make your choice and they then apply for the building licence but they will almost certainly have to put the infrastructure in first which has not started yet but I iunderstand that they will shortly Hence the build time is 18 months _______________________ Brian Rowlands BSc FRICS -Chartered Surveyor & Overseas Property Agent View my profile on www.myspace.com/brianrowlands e-mail rowlandsbb@aol.com Spam post?
