hi guys,

 just returned from a trip to duquesa, i should have completed on thursday the 10th Jan, got there to find that the developer has cancelled until this friday the 18th. Managed to gain access to my apartment and have a few issues:-

• the decor looked a little 'tired' the woodwork on the balcony needed re-doing and other bits and piece's
• there were no light fittings, just wires hangin from the ceiling

I've relayed this to my abogado, he informs me that the developer will have a team putting right the snags as they are found at they will be on site from friday. Follwing discussion's with my abagado i've decided to complete on friday (if it happen's!!!!). Reason being he's negotiated a 3% discount and the obligitory lcd tv. I reason that the 3% discount will hopefully outweigh potential snagging costs (hopefully none). Generally though the complex is looking kind of 7 out of 10. There are several 'bits' that need re-decorating or loose stones that need re-pointing.

 My abagado also points out that because i'll be one of the 1st to complete all the snags should be quickly rectified. I suppose someone needs to push through and see how it goes.

just had a response of my solicitor:- 

Thank you for the e-mail, Ocupation Licence for phase 1 has been obtained by the developer, they expect to start to complete in 1 month, but the developer will inform me.

short and sweet but another positive response

just a thought... But if i was a developer and i thought i could make possibly 60,000 euro's by giving people back there deposit, then selling these re-selling these apartments a few months later at todays inflated price's??? I think i would probably delay completion, and give very little details on associated problems thus encouraging people to take there deposits back... Just makes you wonder if the price's had gone down, how quickly they would have sorted this mess out and we'd have had completion.. Arenal (or whoever own's the complex at the moment) can also read this and other forum's and can probably estimate how many people are/will pull out.. Business is business.... I suppose it's all up to the individual, I personally will wait for completion, however long it takes..
