Hi tywyn08 - that's exactly what we have been thinking. We are using one of the four solicitors mentioned below. We are thinking of pulling out but want to get as much of the deposit back as possible. The reasons for not going ahead are increasing by the day and surely the law is on our side?
We have been told that the developers view is -
1. If you are going ahead with completion then they confirm you have paid a deposit
2. If you want to pull out then the developer denies having the deposit (it is up to us to prove that OVP sent our deposit to the developer).
This seems highly suspicious (especially as the two parties had a meeting recently). Has anyone else been given this impression?
Has anyone got a signed copy of the original contract (i.e signed by both yourself and the developer)? - as was advised by OVP.
If our only option is to complete - then we should all stand together as one and complete at a price we all agree with. The delays have caused this situation. If we had completed in Sept 07 then we wouldnt be having these discussions.
