We maintain two heated pools on our site each of the sizes mentioned. The heat pumps operate on thermostat for 5 - 6 months of the year depending on conditions. Total maintenance for both pools is less than 1500e per month. The electricity cost is far more than the water.

We are in the Canaries.

Hi everyone,

We are a community in lanzarote, like many others we too have our problems with long term debtors. We have been to Court, won judgements and STILL the debtors do not pay. We must go back to the Court and basically plead for our money time after time.

I'm very interested in Maria's comment about 'Preventitive Seizure of Goods', can you please explain a little more?

Our community was established over 20 years ago, we have debtors going back over 5 years.

Steve.

Just finished reading the entire thread and had to register to add my congratulations!!

You have done a fantastic job, well done!!

We are part way along the same route, our's too started with cash collected for water, strange entries and omissions in the books and a huge amount of cash payments being made compared to cheque/bank payments.

We now have a new president and board and  are now getting to grips with the admin systems and bookeeping methods (or lack of them) that our administrator uses.

We are still receiving a lot of attention from the dirty tricks department and have a long way to go, but with your achievements as our inspiration i'm sure we will get there!!!

Well done again Audrey. 

Thread: Any advice on this one please?
