Thanks to all the above posters, some valuable info there.
mpat, I have a standard copy of proposed contract, so I'll look through it, I haven't paid 1st 30% yet.
Interesting, but 4 months ago I actually let a Damac deal fall through because of these reasons. I had put deposit on a 2 room Lago vista apt, which I was told would be 1420sqft, about 135m2.
When I saw a deatiled floorplan with exact measurements, I worked it out to be closer to 110m, I also had an architect friend check it out, who agreed.
I could not get any reaonable explanations for weeks, and in frustration and disgust, let it go.
Mind you, it was at just over 2 million dhms , and now they're 2.7 mill, or nearly 100,000 pound more, so I wish i'd just shut up and gone ahead obviously.
Thats why with attempt no.2 , I'm being a bit more laid back, thinking "well it's the same for everybody" with the expectation that the investment will grow on completion anyway, regardless of the small (maybe not so small) details.
Any thoughts on that (general) reasoning ?

Reason: spelling mistakes
