Per your situation sounds very strange knowing that block seven has apartments occupied early January 2008,did you buy at a good price and they are delaying hoping you will pull out. I am in block One so my problem is the completion of the road which i understand as not been worked on for many weeks!!!! We paid 180000 Euro in January 04.We spent 8 months renting in the area last year and love the place so are hoping every thing picks up soon.Solicitors are wanting 6000 Euros to take up litigation the fear with that is it could take years to go down that path!!!! As i understand it pulling out and buying another property on phase One, as all had been orinally sold but not occupied you would still be classed as second owner and would have to pay Two lots of tax.

LATEST LETTER FROM MY SOLICITOR A LITTLE SCARY THEY ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NO FORSEEABLE COMPLETION DATE THEY HAVE SPOKEN TO DEVELOPERS ON MANY OCCASIONS AND EVERY TIME  ARE ADVISED OF A CLOSE COMPLETION DATE WHICH NEVER HAPPENS.    (DEAR SIR,YOU HAVE A BANK GUARANTEE FOR THE AMOUNTS PAID TO DATE PLUS INTEREST BUT THIS BANK GUARANTEE ONLY HAS A VALIDITY OF 2 YEARS AFTER THE ORIGINAL COMPLETION DATE OF OCTOBER 2006 AND THEREFORE WILL EXPIRE IN OCT 2008. ONCE THIS HAPPENS IF YOU DECIDE TO LITIGATE TO GET YOUR MONEY BACK THE PROCEDURE WOULD BE A LOT MORE COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING AND MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO GET THE MONIES BACK. IF YOU PROCEEDED WITH LITIGATION AT THIS STAGE WE WOULD CLAIM BACK THE AMOUNTS PAID TO DATE,LEGAL INTEREST,MORAL DAMAGES,LOST RENTAL INCOME AND COST OF FURNITURE STORAGE. WE HAVE STRONG REASONS TO BELIEVE THAT COMPLETION FOR THE PROPERTY COULD STILL BE A LONG TIME AWAY AND THEREFORE WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF YOUR OPTIONS AT THIS EARLY STAGE WHILE THE BANK GUARANTEE IS STILL VALID.)    WERE DETERMINED TO HANG IN THERE BUT THIS IS ANOTHER FACTOR WE WERE NOT AWARE OF ANYONE ELSE AWARE OF THIS EXPIREY DATE ?

Hi All, After renting in Manilva from Oct 28th 2006, which was completion date first given for Arenal Duquesa Phase 1 !! came back to UK 1st June to get the best of summer weather and have sat indoors nearly every day to keep out of the rain. To try to keep my spirits up while awaiting that magic occupation license I'am buying one or two bits to bring back to Spain when we drive back,can anyone advise how many ceiling lights are required throughout the 2 bed 2 bath apartments on Arenal Duquesa  CHEERS      P.S. thought of asking builders but they have probably forgot
