Now at least it is MY Palazzo

I was frustrated, shocked, angry, and turned to listen to other stories of Dream home buyers on the Internet. Its like going to hospital. One realizes one is lucky to counts ones blessings.....

So I had the official seal of ownership stamped onto my property.
Perhaps I am lucky to have got at leat ONE of the lifts promised, some kind of generator sets , even if the power line keeps tripping.

No, life, and even Builders are not all that bad. Theres green mexican grass softly tufting the raised landscpe patch. The pool, not That small, is Azure Blue. No sharks for swimming companions,.

Sharks are one of the most successful predators. They are silent, circle quietly and close in swift and ruthless crunch. And once a shark has tasted prey it will return.

Surely, there cannot be Sharks lurking here ? This is now MY (Dream) Home.

Honeymoon days

Choosing property is nowdays an alluring game. You can do endless widnow shopping on the real-estate web sites, and gaze at Edens, Groves, see your Dream Home in prieless Gemstones, or Palazzos, Gardenias and other such Exoticas. The dream in you is suitable amplified by rosy views and wide angle lenses and of course the marketing Consultant. Its her job to assure you that this particular flat is indeed your dream turned to reality, anticipating and promising to accommodate your every wish.

I can take the flat, but provided you change the damaged tiles".
"madam, I will do it, that is My commitment "

"Minutes of the meeting ...... "
One line of tiles will be changed with contrast colour tiles


The end result is predictable.

Until the time when you have paid up some considerable amount and/or signed an aagreement.
Thats when the kid gloves are taken off. Phones calls are never answered, commitments given, verbal or written, never mind, are blatantly ignored. And threats of rescinding of Sale Agreements , cancellation of booking are all part of the days business.

Welcome to the business of selling Dreams.
