new owners

hi everyone
driving down on sept 14 does anyone know a hotel close to san cay where we can stay for one night close to site.
our property is on manzana 5 bringing furniture in truck from santander. looking forward to meeting people on the site. still no habitation cert but solicitor says ok
last time on site was dec o7 hope everything ok would apprieciate any info
thanks shani and paul

' 

The general word is to be very carefull in signing for the property without the licence of occupation, would suggest you read this www.eyeonspain.com/forums/posts-long-4478.aspx
Anyhow all the best with your move to Spain and hope everything goes well for you

thanks for advice jet48 will look at web site

Jet48 is right......you would not complete a purchase in UK without the Local Council confriming that it had been built to UK building regulations...so why do anything different in Spain!!!

No HL.... pay no more money and after all it is 2008 and builders want to get their money as quickly as possible so they will get the HL as quickly as they can

Good lawyers will advise you ......................but you do not ' as far as I am aware ' have a legal ownership without a HL,,,,,and if you were getting a mortgage the bank would not give you the money without one......[ except perhaps if you took the builders mtge!]....whats good for the banks is good or you

That does not mean that everything is not OK on your development.....just that the formalities are not complete 

One other thing.....just do a little search on EOS and you will find that some buyers who have completed without a HL in the past .....are still having problems

thanks rowlandsbb will take your advice and wait
still an issue about the pool anyway which needs resolving apparrently the local council own the land were its to be built so unsure.waiting for answer on that.
does anything ever run smoothly in spain been waiting for property over 12 months
booked on ferry 14 sept guess we were foolish

I think that in the future it will be better [ no help to you though!][ as developers now have to put in a large % of the infrastructure before they can start and so when the properties are built the HL comes much quicker.

So things like the pool being on land not owned by the developer should not happen in the future

Why not rent for a bit...probably get a good deal around about...then there will be no rush.....may even get one on your development as I' sure some may have completed without a HL!! or even some may have them

thanks again
the idea was to furnish our place in sept and get ready for hols in oct with granchildren
were not going to live in spain until we retire in a few years time.
maybe if no hab licience we should rent in oct on the site
by this time things might be resolved you never know
