What the outlet published · Sentence 9
“Las primeras sospechas surgieron cuando empezaron a aparecer costes que, según su versión, no estaban previstos inicialmente.”
Translation · ES
The first suspicions arose when costs started to appear that, according to his account, had not been budgeted for at the outset.
What this claims, in our words
UNBUDGETED COSTS: that is where it locates the start of the suspicions. The outlet itself qualifies it as "according to his account", the investor's.
What the other side says
That is the interpretation of an investor, not an established fact. The article itself acknowledges that this is “according to his account”. A disagreement about construction costs, furniture, upgrades or project scope does not by itself establish fraud or criminal conduct. There have never been, and there are not, undisclosed or unexpected additional costs imposed on investors. The different stages and associated costs of the project have been communicated to investors from the outset. Furniture has always been a separate and optional item, with packages starting from approximately €3,500 depending on the property. Investors have always been free to purchase and bring their own furniture if they prefer. Where furniture is supplied through the company, the relevant cost is clearly specified. Separately, shipping and installation may be charged where applicable, primarily because these works need to be coordinated and carried out safely on the property. These are not hidden charges or newly introduced costs. Many investors have completed their investment successfully and already have their properties available to live in, use or rent. The existence of different optional services or stages of development should therefore not be presented as evidence of unexpected additional costs. Furthermore, investors have always had direct and documented channels to communicate with the company. All investors can register through the project’s website, upload their personal information and contracts, and submit questions or requests through the investor ticketing system. These enquiries are normally answered within a maximum of approximately three business days. Investors are also welcome to visit the project in person, inspect their property and the development, and stay at the project free of charge during their visit. This gives investors a direct opportunity to see the progress of the development and discuss any questions with the team on site. Therefore, presenting an individual investor’s account as an established fact, without considering the company’s response, the contractual documentation, the distinction between mandatory and optional items, or the direct communication and inspection opportunities available to investors, would provide an incomplete and potentially misleading picture.
