Hi,

I successfully obtained a full refund of my deposit earlier this year, after succesful execution of my bank guarantee (held with Banco Poplar).

The completion date of my property (Phase 3) was suppose to be March, 2008, which also coincided with the expiry date of the guarantee (no surprise there !).  In order to avoid any dispute from the bank, my solicitor commenced proceedings to execute the guarantee at the end of January.  He used the grounds that Peinsa could not possibly complete on time. 

I hope this helps.

Simon .

How can you confirm if your solicitor is independent of the development.  I'm currently using Victor from Martinez- Abarca & Munoz solicitors.  Athough I have had no problems with the service I've received so far (been very good), his details were passed to me at the time I made my reservation.  Does this mean that the solicitor is not independent ?

Regards

Simon & Caroline.

Hi All,

It's worth remembering that a lot of the horror stories about buying in spain are related to unfinished and illegally built properties.  At least the delays on this site are due to the builder trying to avoid these issues.  I fully agree that Peinsa are extremely poor with regards to communication and compensation, but at least they appear to be building a legally completed site. 

Rather than pulling out, my wife and I will continue pursuing compensation.  Apparently they are offering free white goods with new purchases, so hopefully they will offer the same to existing customers - ever the optimist !

Regards.

Simon & Caroline.

Hi,

We're buying on phase II.  We also had an email yesterday from Medsea, stating that completion should be around June 2008.  I don't understand why Phase V would take over 6 months longer. 

Cheers

Hi Sean,

We'd be really keen to join together to employ an independent company to perform a survey and produce a snagging list.  I'm sure that the build quality will be fine, but no doubt there will be some problems that need rectifying.

Cheers.
