Hi Ranks & Helmsc

I've sent you both a message to see if you can provide some info on the progress you have made regarding getting your initial deposit returned.

I too lost my £50k deposit on the phase 1 apartment and had just about given up all hope here. I'm very impressed that you have made some progress to the extent that Helmsc you actually appear to have got your money back? Could you provide some information that I could use to folluw up my own deposit refund?

Having just read the clipping left re OVP - I really don't know what to do.

Gardens of Manilva is now finished and having been up there in October, it looks very nice. However, we are now being asked to complete before the leisure centre is built, with no guarantee that it will ever be built and we're paying top prices from 4/5 years ago....with the Euro going against us MASSIVELY!!

If I pull out now, I absolutely believe that I will never get my money back - I'd have to write it off.

If I proceed, one of my concerns is that no one esle proceeds and the development will be largely empty, with insufficient funds to manage it properly! It's expensive, so I'll have to hang onto it for a number of years or sell at loss..........................might as well take the loss now and save myself all the wory and hassle???

What's everyone else's view? Has anyone decided they are going to proceed to completion?

There's a bit of a mix, they're mainly the 2 bed show apartment but there's a couple from the 3 bed apt.

I didn't actually save them properly!!! hence the first few are a bit blurred, so I saved them correctly and posted them again- but can't seem to delete the first blurry lot!! never mind!

Has anyone else been out and anything to report? any more photos?

I sorted out my furniture whilst I was over there and got a much much better deal than that offered via Ocean View, so i'm happy about that.

I think you've misiterpreted my posting. I was speaking  generally about building developers taking longer to get planning permission, I wasn't implying that there is no permission for GoM, I'm sure there is. I don't believe there are any problems with this site. In addition I've visited the site on several ocasions recently, there is ongoing progress and it's nearly finished now. There seems to be some negative comments on here about the site and I don't really understand why - I think it looks really good! It just feels like there is a lot of speculation on here and people worrying (unduly) but not really much in terms of hard facts. I would like to think that most people are looking fwd to getting their new apartment - as I am.
