Case #SPP-2026-001 — MASA Real Estate, Gran Alacant
Dutch buyer · €203,500 purchase · 21 months without habitability documentation · electricity disconnected · tenant in hotel · documented damages €52,060 and growing.
Summary
On 26 August 2024, a Dutch buyer signed the public escritura for villa Gala Alto 75 in Urbanización Monteymar II, Gran Alacant — purchased from MASA Infraestructura S.L. for a total of €203,500 (incl. IVA). The property was sold as terminada de obra with the contractual promise that the architect would issue a habitability certificate if the Licencia de Primera Ocupación had not been granted at delivery.
Twenty-one months later, neither the Licencia de Primera Ocupación nor the architect's certificate has been delivered. On 21 April 2026, the electricity supply was disconnected by the distribution operator i-DE — citing the absence of a definitive registration of the supply, which itself depends on the LPO. The tenant at the property has been in hotel accommodation since.
2. No Licencia de Primera Ocupación after 21 months from escritura
3. No tourist licence (administratively dependent on LPO)
4. Active rental income loss and hotel costs accumulating daily

A formal settlement proposal has been extended to MASA Real Estate. The proposal:
- Requires release of the electricity supply point CUPS for direct contracting by the buyer
- Requires written commitment on the Licencia de Primera Ocupación filing and timeline
- Settles documented direct damages at €25,000 (substantially below the calculated €52,060)
- Expires automatically 27 May 2026 18:00 CET (48 hours from Monday)
- Includes withdrawal of the public case page within 8 hours of settlement performance
Failure to reach settlement triggers transition to a Spanish law firm in Alicante for civil and (where supported by evidence) criminal procedures.
