Re: Building and developer problem

Thank you Scots lad for your kind comment.

Yes, Hadjivasili Bros did put their request in writing. They sent an email request for c. 4,000 euros and details of the bank account that we should pay it into. This was last September and included 6 years IPT. At that time it had been 4 years and eleven ...

Planning Permission??

Green Area

Hi Nigel.

Sorry it did not take long, having introduced myself, can I now ask a question?

We live on a development of 9 villas, with an area I think 10%, approx 800 sq. mts. designated as green. We were led to believe that our builder would smarten up this parcel of land. He now tells us (1 year ...

New member - Kate

Hi,

I'm Kate and I live in Cyprus. We have been here for 18 months, having arrived here with no planning, 2 days after completion on our sale in the UK.
Regrets? None. But would I do it the way we did again? NEVER! There is so much information available on sites like this that we were totally ...
