hello jpd 

 it dont look like anybody else wants a solicitor as of  yet so i think its best if we hold on and see what happens

i dont know if a solicitor would do any good to us anyways, I spoke to mine a while back and he said you can either take them to court and get your money back or hang on till its done and i would rather hang on personally

But its here if we do need one in the near future

Hi Phil, yes ok thats fine by us. We will hang on and see.

Cheers for trying!

we agree with el robbo.  However, we feel that it should be palmera properties that should be more acountable for what has happend.  We feel vert strongly that they have done nothing for their money - no simple communication or updates on what is going on.  We were told at the outset that the deposit money was never given to the builder but held by the bank as security.  That way if the builder did not complete the money was safe and the bank would get another builder to finish the project.  Worst scenario, money refunded.  But now we are informed that  the builder has the money and there is no chance of getting it back.  They have lied from day one, they have no clout with the builder and have let the builder do as he pleases.  This has resulted in the massive delays.  They should have used their legal department (if there is one ) a long time ago before the builder got himself in such a state.  Now it is just a waiting game which us Brits are so good at.

So we would be interested in taking action against palmera propoerty before they change there name and go missing like our local branch in Essex did some time ago.

MOST OF THESE COMPANY'S WHO SELL YOU THE PROPERTIES ABROAD DONT LET YOU KNOW OUT, I DONT THINK ITS JUST PALMERA EVENTHO THEY HAVE BEEN LIEING TO YOU, THEY SEEM TO TELL LITTLE WHITE LIES THAT TURN OUT TO BE BIG RED LIES IN THE END - LIKE THE KITCHENS AND SO ON

ITS GOOD TO HAVE THIS SITE

I THINK WE KNOW MORE THAN THEM NOW

Count me in

I'm for getting someone to speak for us as a whole. I think we have two models from which to choose:

1)  Someone to 'informally' represent us, i.e a Property expert or Professional Snagger, but who is empowered to say, what is acceptable to us and what isn't, as far as time delay and specifation changes.

2)  The second model is to employ a 'solicitor' and go the legal route.

Either way I and my collegue Keith would support such action, and perhaps slightly favour option 1.

Hi not that we have seen inside ours!!!! caugh caugh! but we have a snagging list already so bring the Prof Snagger on!! Also on the main message board Jeansis said builders should have a bank guarantee.

This should cover us if Urbasa go bankrupt???? Or what? Dont know?

Previous meesage mentioned that the local Mayor had told builders that they must complete Amarion I before starting back at Amarion III.   if the Mayor has the authority that we hear they do in Spain, would it be a good idea for someone to reprosent us as a group and speak to the local Mayor expressing our concerns and disappointments. May be they might have a quiet word in the builders ear or give us reassurance.

Hi All - I haven't posted any replies for a while but I've been keeping up to date with everything.  We would definitely be up for a professional snagger to inspect the apartments on our behalf and as a whole, count us in.  Maybe if Urbasa knew we had one waiting to inspect on our behalf, they'd put a bit of extra effort into finishing them with care?  Maybe I'm just hoping!! 

I DONT KNOW IF A SNAGGER WOULD BE ANY GOOD FOR US

AS WE ARE ALL ONE - AND WE ARE NOT THICK - IF SOMETHING NEEDS DOING I AM SURE ONE OF US WILL SPOT IT !!!

WHEN THE APARTMENTS ARE DONE,  WE SHOULD ALL GET TOGETHER OVER THERE AND IF ANY OF US HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WE SHOULD SORT THEM OUT TOGETHER

WOULD GETTING A SNAGGER JUST MAKE US SPEND MORE MONEY ?   WHEN WE PROBERBLY WOULD FIND ANY FAULTS

Good afternoon,

When there is a delay in the completion of more than 3 months, the buyer has two legal options:

1) To cancel the contract, getting the money back with a compensation for the rentals, meals, flight tickets, etc...

2) To sign the title deeds of the purchase in the notary, and later claim against the builder for a compensation.
