Hello Lisa, Ian, Carol & Rob,
Just to introduce ourselves :- Susan and Jason.
We completed on our apartment in Block 12 in December, and collected our keys the following week. This was the first time that we had actually visited our apartment. We were there last Easter, but not allowed on site by the contractors. Anyhow, we compiled our 'snag list' and visited again last week to find workmen there, but not much had been achieved! We also had another problem : since completing, our lawyer contracted the water supply for us, and on arrival last week, we found that we had a leak from the pipework connecting the tap on the terrace, and so the inside walls of the bedroom were damp with peeling paintwork - something else to get sorted!
We feel a liittle disappointed that the development is progressing so slowly, and that we completed on our apartment, when Las Palmeras is still quite a building site. Despite apparently being such a long way from completion in respect of building work, landscaping and community facilities, we are still being charged community fees.
Just one more grievance for now - we took advantage of Rushcliffes '24 Month Mortgage Interest Payment' agreement, and our lawyer told us on completion that we could expect our first payment at the beginning of Jan. but we still have not received it.! - Has anyone else had any problems as such?
Apart from these niggles though, once the site is completed we sure that we will be very happy with ou apartment there!
For your information, we are just north of Sheffield.
Any feedback would be very welcome - we're not quite sure how this system works yet, so here goes!!
