Lagrange-Soderev

Same situation for me, we have a leaseback in Paradou, Le Domaine de Bourgeac.

We also have another one with Appart'City in Montpellier, L'Orangerie - anybody knows if they are in trouble as well?

I am in agreement with Fabian Cordiez about us having a single attack front in this. However I will not be volunteering to take on the mantle of coordinator as I live in Dubai and believe the time difference and distance may become an issue if/when matters move on and documentation starts to flow.

However if there is a fellow owner out there willing to become our champion I will happily chip into the pot now towards any upfront fees that may be likely in what could become a group action.

I am from Le Domaine de Bourgeac development in Paradou. There are several other forums (in French) that have the same issues.

As my French is somewhat limited in regards to legal and the law, I agree with the proposal from Finlay.

I also agree with the proposal from Finlay.

I am from the Residence Aspen in La Plagne.

My view at the moment is that I would like to exit the leaseback scheme

( fermes de Samoens and Peemor pen). There is a list of co-proprietors

on the minutes of the

Meeting but it does not include contact addresses but at least we could

tick them off if they make contact via here or Steve Rushtons forum.

The other thought that occurred to me is that if there are a number of

us wanting to self rent we could use the same key holder / cleaner for

changeovers

We also need to keep up with the progress on the possible cases being

bought against the leaseback developers / managers / sales agents etc

by the other forum member as this may set precedents for us too

Justme,

I think we will be stuck with whatever management company the consensus of owners accepts. Even if you opt to buy yourself out of the leaseback horror, the day to day running of the place will be undertaken by either the same or a new entity placed there by the receivers. Fees will be levied by that management company which we would all be liable to pay, in the same way that 'classic' owners currently pay now.

I believe the only way we could impose our own management system on the place would be if there was a complete rejection of any new offers by everyone and then all owners would have to form a co-op and source a management company to undertake the day-to-day running.

I don't believe we would have the rights to remove ourselves completely from the system. I could be wrong, but I'd be surprised if there was a precedent for an owner of one of these apartments to bring in his own cleaners for example. How would they deal with the common facilities such as the pool otherwise? You and your guests being deliberately excluded on the grounds that you don't pay so cannot use...?

I was assuming that if you are a classic owner the cleaning linen etc

inside that apartment would be your own responsibility and this is what

I was referring to. Maybe Steve can confirm?

Afternoon everyone.

Just heard the news after chasing Lagrange. We have an appartment at Les 3 Glaciers in Mont Chavin. If anyone who is an owner within this residence and wants to get in touch to discuss what can be done please give me a ring on +44 7717345027.

Regards,

Tim.

With regard to joint action I don't mind making a start on things by

drawing up a database of owners who would like to be involved in

group action. I am not sure I can take the whole thing on due to work

commitments currently but we can see.

I would imagine useful info would be name, email address,

development, date lease started. Anything else anyone thinks should

be included?

If everyone is happy for me to do this I suggest you pm me the details

rather than use the forum

Hi Everyone.

We are new to the forum and are also owners at Peemor Pen. Nothing heard from Lagrange re the receivership, but no money has been paid for the last quarter and we are getting no response to e-mails and phones are ringing out when we try to call them.

Interestingly we were at our residence a couple of weeks ago and it was full the first week and almost full the second!! We've also just received back our occupation calendar for the winter season, stamped and agreed, so it seems some things are business as usual.

Kate - we've just registered on your thread regards joining the group and wouldbe happy to hear from anyone else who owns at Peemor Pen.
