Hi All
Last June when the builder got the habitation Licence we applied for the mortgage mention in the Contract from the Caja Madrid Bank. They have failed to provide this mortgage as it appears they have no funds. The Builder via our solicitor redirected us to their own Bank in Barcelona. We provide a mountain of paperwork to secure the mortgage 4 months, we have to date not received a decision.
We have on numerous occasions asked for the Builder via our solicitor for a reduction as Deutsche Bank will provide our Mortgage,but not at the price we contracted for in 2006. They say the value has dropped 30% and are willing to give us a maximum 50%Mortgage, but the builder is unwilling to accept a reduction, which is his right.
I am amazed that there is no current up-to-date information on the Forum and people do not seem to be using it at all, other than the Lawyer touting for business who states that the builder has automatically revoked our contracts.
Any information would be appreciated.
