Dear All

I have not posted back onto the site as I have not been on until today - we decided OCC wasn't for us and have moved on.

We did not get shown the showhouse whilst we were there and it wasn't obvious to us that in fact there was one.  The reason was probably because our agent saw how unimpressed we were with the location of the development he didn't bother to ask us to have a look.  Anyhow, like I said at the time of our visit - which was 30th June 2008, there was no builders on site and if there were then they must have been hiding in the showhouse.

I wish everyone well who has decided to move over, but like I said, it's not for us, we have a family with teenagers and they would absolutely hate it.

We have just returned from a recce trip to see whether we should transfer from ACC to OCC.  Well I really do not know where to start.  The village of Tabernas is very nice and first impressions were that if the location of OCC was near to the village then it wouldn't be so bad.  Our agent rang to say he'd meet us at the first cafe on the road through Tabernas (Sorbas); when I say cafe - I mean that in the loosest sense of the word!  Anyway, we set off and turned down a dusty road to OCC, where there are the trade-mark palm trees and fountain and apart from two small sales offices THAT'S IT.....

We didn't take any pictures because there was nothing to see.  There are NO showhomes, NO roads in place (although it does look like they have started excavating to start one) and NO builders on site, there may have been one jcb but nobody was working at all.  Not what you'd expect when Huma have been telling people that the show-homes are there.

The location is definitely not for us, there is no-where to walk to and is too far to walk to Tabernas village.  Like I said, there is just nothing around - totally totally in the middle of no where.  All there was was a plant which we were told tests solar panels and not a pretty sight.

Well the upshot is we are definitely not transferring to OCC; our agent took us to see Mazarron CC, which is a well established community.  We were told we could transfer there and are awaiting a firm price. 

For those of you who have transferred to OCC - good luck, I wish you all the best with everything and hope that the lies stop and building commence.

I have to agree with all the points below.  Reading between the lines it looks like Huma are pushing their new site and don't seem confident that ACC will get the go-ahead afterall.  They mention about taking another property on another site (presumable MCC) for no extra cost if you select the same building type, we have purchased a Tarifa - none on MCC.  Plus from what I have read from those who have opted to change to MCC they all say that they have had to pay more.  Sick to the back teeth of this whole thing now, why can't Huma do the decent thing for once and offer client's money back?

Hi cuffi - thanks for this, it must be him (was he Irish?).  I am glad you posted on about him saying it would possibly take upto 7 years to sort ACC because everytime we call him he is very positive, he's even bought one there and his daughter.  Some food for thought I think!
