The contract says I lose 40%, whether I get the other 60% back is another matter, think I could get it all back if the development is not complete by 15th December, so if anyone is in Javea and could give me an update I’d be grateful.
BLue the develpoment is now pretty progressed my best guess is six months before complete including communal areas. Check your contract I think the 40% may be 40% of the total purchase price not 40% of the deposit!!! In respect of late completions getting this to stick is difficult developers will allways be given some latitude and will claim delays out of their hands such as the recent gota Frio experienced in Javea.
If you decide to complete and want to keep mortgage costs to a min PM me.
Thanks Jim You’ve been really helpful, they’re already 6 months overdue for completion. She did say to me I lose 40% of the deposits, I’ll get my solicitor to look at it. If that’s the case what chance do you think I’ve got of getting the other 60% back? Does it take for ever? Do you have to go to court to get it? Again , thanks for all your help.

I’m certain this will be 40% of your deposit
When I canceled my contract I spoke directly to the builder bypassing the next-to-useless agent altogether. I was sent a new contract to sign, returned the old one and within several weeks the balance of the deposit was transferred into my bank account. Episode closed.
However as your build is late, your contract may contain clauses which entitle you to not only your deposit but also some compensation. This was the case in my contract but yours may be different.
Do you have a copy of your contract in English? If so, you must read through it!
Have they fully met the contract? Completion date? Bank Guarantees? All facilities? Surface? Quality? All what was advertised in previous publicity?.. If so and you want to cancel, you are entitled to the devolution of the 60% of your deposit of course. No doubts. You can even challenge the 40% as it may be abusive.
