Mike / Carol,
I was never given assurances that the land wouldn't be built on, but thought to myself that it would take some doing to spoil the view if a development did. I WAS told that views would NOT be spoilt on the development itself (Gibralter / Africa), but alas in block 13, the views are almost gone from my apartment (unless I stand tip toed, with one eye shut, looking between the apartments in front of me!) to the south west, but south east are fantastic. So unless the built some high rise blocks, fingers crossed, I'm ok i hope(?).
I think it all boils down to what you we told + what has been delivered + we have all been stupidly naive in believing people rather than seek it in writing. I normally don't associate myself with being stupid, but in this case the £ signs clearly indicate I was!
I serioulsy think we need to get together as a group + pursue rather than accept what's happening done't you all? I'm UK based + don't know how feasible this is. Anyone else?
By the way, I take it you still own the apartment even though you put it up for sale 2years ago, right? Stinks of being sold down the river like many of us! However, if we could sought roads in particular, this is undoubatbly a quality establishment (+ we are paying for the privilage), which will flourish medium to long term like most investments do. It certainly has the potential to do well, but to rent it out we need good access roads!
Thanks,
Steve
