Las Vistas de Santa Maria - 2011 Update

Hi.. It is many years since we placed our orders and paid our deposits to purchase a dream apartment in Elviria.. MacAnthony seemed such a.first class agency and they had the sole selling rights to this development which gave it a much more exclusive feel. I managed to get my depost back albeit with a struggle, but I am wondering if you or anybody else took action to recover their deposits and how they got on.

I went to visit my beloved Marbella in October and took a drive to Santa Maria in the hope of seeing some building action but sadly there was none and the half completed development looked neglected and abandoned.

What happened to the bank guarantees and what about the ' first class building company from Madrid' ?

I would love to hear from anybody who has any news or updates on this fiasco.

Regards and Happy Christmas

Hi,

We are still waiting for our money back thru the bank guarantee, the developers were hard to get with money so we are now after the bank.

I will be glad to post here when we get our money back, if Martinez-Echevarria are as good as it says in their entrance...

I read here that McAnthony was in the court for fraud, some furniture that he did not deliver...

Hej,

I'm considering to buy an apartment in the complex called Los Lagos which is on the other side of the road from Las Vistas in Elviria. The view over the golf course and the sea is very nice but the view in the back towards the half built Las Vistas is very sad. When asking the agency what will happen with Las Vistas the answer is that they don't know. Its not fun to read what you have experienced during several years concerning Las Vistas. Do you know what will happen with it? Demolition, development or will it just sit there and nothing will happen?

Who owns Las Vistas now? A bank, developer or builder?
