ARCHIVED - A little crumb about the Murcia Paramount Theme Park project
Paramount Murcia, Spanish press say the sale of the lands could be agreed by the end of the year
2010-12-07
We havent had a squeak out of anyone about the Paramount Theme park project since the executives from across the pond hopped back onto that plane to the states, having had a good look at the potential offered by the Region of Murcia.
A couple of emails have arrived from potential vendors, desperate to know whether anything has happened in case their holiday home has gone up in value, but apart from that its all been quiet.
Until today.
Theres always a dearth of interesting stories around bank holidays as politicians and press departments head back to their home towns, eat morcillo, watch a Virgin being paraded from one church to another and enjoy a spot of downtime. Most publications have a few stock stories sitting in the bank and fill up the space with complaints about the performance of various football teams, so it was no surprise to see a piece in La Verdad today about the increase in sales of property on the Condado de Alhama site , "one purchaser signed a deal on twelve properties just a few weeks ago," and the news that various construction projects around the area are showing signs of reawakening having died a death a couple of years ago.
It was only to be expected, we all just have to hope that Alhama doesnt stop being probably the most sensible council in the region, and go the way of some of the others, allowing indiscriminate building of sub standard square boxes which exchange hands for grossly overvalued prices, and are then abandoned whilst the developer disappears off to Florida leaving their purchasers with no street lights, no water and a long term liability on their hands.
La Verdad has the news today that the business in charge of the project, Proyectos Emblemáticos de la Región de Murcia has still not finished haggling with the IRM group over the acquisition of the lands on which the theme park will be built.
It says that the two parties are still discussing whether the purchase is to be of six million square metres now, or 3 million with an option to extend to another 3 million in a second phase.
Although this is no news, its some news, as the paper says that sources from both parties told them yesterday that this was the situation, so they must have all been up a hill chasing virgins and eating sausages at the same time, and suggests that the lands in question are those of IRM and not Polaris World as was previously inferred.
It also says that sources from within IRM say that the sale of secondary residencies will be better if more German buyers can be attracted to the region, as at the moment they seem to be more interested in Mallorca and Valencia. This is probably why a deal was cut with Air Berlin to assist them in their promotional campaign, to encourage more German tourists to visit the region, much to the anger of Ryanair.
La Verdad again mentions that some naughty British estate agents have lost no time in telling their clients that Paramount are definately building a park here in the Region, which is helping to stimulate increased interest in the Alhama municipality, and says that the negotiations to buy the lands , "could be closed this month."
