Hi Alison, personally I do not accept payments from my clients. I ALWAYS recommend that all payments go through their lawyers client account. This way you have a complete audit trail in case of disputes later.

Just thought Peter, sounded from my thread as if I don't trust my own agent, which is completely untrue

Hi when we 1st went ahead with purchasing - prior to finding this brill forum - you can say I was rather naive and just done what I was told. As far as Im aware the money has been passed onto the developer.

Alison I was speaking generally; its just our policy, our job is to find property and we prefer that lawyers take care of the money. In some instances sending cash to Developers may be fine but not all are good at money management and I just feel that as a matter of principle, using a lawyers client acount is a safer option. In your particular case your agent is a good guy and I am sure you will have no problems.

Hi Peter - thanks for your comments - I dont want to start worrying at this late stage!! As far as I am aware all is safe and sound with regards to the monies but if I bought again I would look into the process more. Buying abroad is a learning kerb for many and this forum is great for sourcing info and help because sometimes you just dont know where to start looking for answers.

Regards

Alison

As long as you got reciepts and invoices and confirmations from the developer company that they got your money this is ok
