I note your comments relating to the sudden appearance of a new block next to block 8.
We are in the process of purchasing an apartment in Block 8 and were very concerned when the new block suddenly appeared on the MLH web site in September 05. We took this matter up with our solicitors who, after carrying out local searches confirmed that planning permission had been obtained for the new block some considerable time before we paid our initial deposit. We were not advised at anytime that the new block was to be built and MLH allowed us to sign a contract to purchase the property in June 2004 in complete ignorence of the change in site plan. Moreover our contract includes a copy of the original site plan, initialled by an MLH Director indicating that one block only was to be built on that part of the site. In order to accommodate the additional block, Block B8 was resited some distance to the side of the new Block B8A and access to their garages and store rooms is the same as for B8.
Our solicitors thought that a strong case existed for a breach of contract claim.
We were also advised that the additional block was never transferred to MLH and had been retained by Interlaken for the benefit of Directors/Shareholders. Another example of blatant profiteering by this developer.
