Hopefully this comment will be left to stand and we can end this conversation once and for all and not let either forum turn into battlegrounds. I think it is a real shame if that happens  as we have both worked hard and I am sure that everyone would agree that they do not log on to read unpleasnt comments. I certainly do not want unplesantness however nor do I want a public slating.

I have never posted anything personally nasty about anyone and do not intend to start now.

Justin you make some valid points and I did spam people when I first started the site. In reality this is because I was very excited about the site I had created and wanted to be in a position to share it with fellow owners.

I did not think about the impact and in hindsight  realised that it was a little insensitive of me. I added a link to your site so that it in some way made amends and thought you may have realised this. Many people have PM ed others about your site or talked about it online and I have no problem as I had not viewed you as competition as you obviously have me. This will not change as I am not commercial.

In terms of integrity and ethics then I think these are my strongest qualities. I did not lie about my site being commercial. It was never intended to be so and infact I resisted requests for it to advertise business for a long time. Anyone who has been a member from early on with know this themselves.

I think the biggest misunderstanding between us is that you see me as running  a business and therefore having business ethics and a cynical desire for big profit margins. I am not running a business however. Any contracts or commercial items on my site are set up for the pure benefit of owners. Unlike you the people who have bought there are not just site traffic but my friends and future neighbours. I do nothing orientated by money but only by the desire to forge a nice community where we can all share information and help each other and hopefully get a cheaper price along the way. some people have paid a small fee for advertising but this has only covered some of the costs of the site.

If I was running the site for business then I would be  a very poor business lady.

please do not let your site turn into a ground for unpleasantness as this benefits no-one. I had no idea that you were so angered by me and therefore apologise

All the best

Anna

sorry - I was just trying to be helpful - I am sure that the quality is ok I just have a real bug in my hat about people trying to make ridiculous profits off the back of owners. I think the whole point of these forums is to try and ensure that this doesn't happen.

having looked back at my notes it was the one bedroomed model that cost £3800 I think that the two bedroomed model was nearer the £5000 mark which is very expensive in the current market. - Although I did research some time ago so it may have changed - even so I would double check if I were you. By memory I spoke to a guy called David - can't remember this surname was it Strimmer or Rimmer?

the company  have their own spanish website too which, by memory had the prices on. you may want to check this out too. http://www.insiderightespana.com

I had a look at these darren when I was looking at deals. very expensive I thought even if they offer a good service they are offering packages at 8,500 euros that are not as good quality or comprehensive as other companies offering far more. There are many companies about who do not direct source but buy from direct source companies and then add a referral fee. at these prices I would suggest that they are either the latter or making an obscene profit at owners expense.

Good luck though
