Price seems cheap £83000 you’d get that for £80000 looks like it needs some finishing off though

The prices quoted probably don't include notary and lawyers fees etc. and of course the 10% IVA.

"Playas de Gran Alacant " and "minimal distance to the sea" are two good examples of Estate Agent double speak or poets licence.

I notice that "minimal distance to the noisy N332" is missing!

Swimming pool excepted it’s got all the glamour of some sort of institutional accommodation, looks dreadful!!

I reckon they’ll take some selling

We looked around these several years ago and were quite underwhelmed, they looked dated back then but with architectural styles moving on, they will be hard to shift. The big downside is there are so many that the local resale markett will be depressed for several years whilst theyre being offloaded.

On a positive note, it's an eyesore of a building site which hopefully will improve with occupancy, & will benefit the local economy

They're very handy for the new golf course

Whilst not always trying to be pessimistic, im struggling to see any positive points. They will favour the holiday home short rental market so will spend a lot of the year empty, the occupants will add to the seasonal congestion on the roads and beaches, shops etc. Any money generated IVA goes to central goverment, yearly income ie suma will go straight into the coffers of santa pola council with little being reinvested back into GA. So if anyone can give a factual positive benefit that will enhance GA then fire away.

Increased trade for local businesses?

Hi both

Yes, but that is a very old Google shot!

I agree they are not the most attractive looking, but it is good to see them finally being worked on rather than the eyesore they have been for the past few years

I agree with Bert and its only a short walk to the Masa square.

Its a good point Bert, but the reality is that GA has an oversupply of local businesses already, with many competing to the bottom and subsequent closures.So where does it all end, more developments equals more new businesses all scrabbling around trying to make a living equals more closures, more grand openings, more under new management. Personally i think GA is way to big already and is fast becoming another urban sprawl, the best outcome would be to bulldoze these apartments and return the land to nature or agriculture.

As they are a,ready built seems sensible to finish them and get what they can for them (although looking at the insides I reckon they will get £80000 including tax etc )

More people means more money into local restaurants bars shops and other infrastructure so that can only be a good thing as hopefully a few more will survive

I don’t think anyone can complain about the size of GA we all knew what the long term development plan was when we bought we were shown it when we bought over 17 years ago and if anything it’s not as far advanced as it should be by now
