Just wondering have any of you any advice or information on this ..........as he says i am always negative when he suggests something new......but i guess he is more ambitous than i and i would be more cautious. ........so please if any of you have bought in this area or from this developer I would love to hear from you.....

We are purchasing in La Tercia, Murcia which is 20 mins inland from the Mar Menor. There are a number of developments being built around golf courses in Murcia. We are purchasing on a development which won't have a golf course but will have swimiming pools, bars, cafes etc. There is a development over the other side of the road which will have a golf course which is to be a public one. You could have the best of both worlds there to suit both you and your husband. I would suggest you go out there and have a look round at different developments, and the area before you make a decision on any one.

There have been a few sales off plan that have not developed or been delayed for years and people are having trouble getting their deposits back!!
Thanks for the advice. We have got our bank guarantee for our development, and building has started. We have been informed our completion date is on time at present for September 2007.

Re: Polaris Delveopment In Murcia
We're currently renting in Mar Menor Golf Resort. Were looking to buy with Polaris, too, but have decided to go for something different. However, I think Polaris has solved the water dilemma by investing in a system of their own, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Just wanted to say that our experience here has been very positive, but we are not owners. We're a family of four, none of us play golf yet there are other things to do in the area. Lots of families with young children here, some residents, others only here on holidays. I was expecting to find mostly retired people, yet that isn't the case at all.
Good luck with your decision. You should come and visit the region to see for yourselves.

Re: Polaris Delveopment In Murcia
Hi Blondie
I did buy in Polaris World bu then cancelled when I did all the sums. Basically, as a pure financial investment, it does not stack up (just like many other places in Spain). As a holiday home, then you pays your money and takes your choice.
Personally, I find Murcia generally quite depressing as it just seems to be lots of building and lots of fields covered in plastic. La Manga club is nice but expensive, La Manga strip is awful.
Do no believe any bull from agents about capital growth or rental. You will not cover any mortgage with rentals, too many people trying to chase too few renters. You can buy a resale cheaper than the PW list prices.
Finally, to get some mixed opinions on PW, check out this forum
http://spanish-properties-forums.com...rum.asp?mid=54
You are right to be negative, treat everything the agents tell you with a huge dose of salt.
Regards
Kevin

With respect to Murcia, if all you have seen is plastic-covered fields, then you've really seen very little of Murcia. I've seen this comment many times and couldn't disagree more

Of course, it doesn't help that you land at San Javier and they are there right in front of your face
