The update for 03.2024
Upon taking over the management, and gaining access to the building, in the autumn the new construction company undertook an assessment of the completed and pending works. The estimated cost to finalize the construction amounted to approximately 150,000 EUR(w.o. taxes), therefore 2 additional stages were published and financed on the platform. Later on, we discovered that there were additional outstanding debts related to services by the architect team, electric company, and others. Some tasks needed redoing due to substandard quality, further compounded by the need for extensive refurbishments after the premises were utilized by Kirsan Building SL for accommodating their staff, necessitating furniture and equipment replacements in two apartments. Challenges also persist with unresolved issues in the storage rooms, demanding attention to achieve project completion.
During the planned construction works, many more issues were discovered, for example, the electric plugs attached to the walls were not connected to the electric circulation, draining pipes were not connected properly, and issues with ventilation in some areas of the building, especially in the underground garage. A substantial cleaning costs alone were over 6,000 EUR, as pending works required to eliminate construction dust residue from elements like the conditioner pipes. All these additional works added up, requiring more time, funding and work.
Conducted works after taking over the Xirivella property:
- Remediation of painting work, rectification of defects, and repainting of walls.
- Rectification of ventilation systems in apartments, including cleaning and restoration of ventilation shafts.
- Partial dismantling and renovation of kitchens, replacement of parts, and installation completion.
- Replacement of doors and installation of glass panels in doors.
- Partial replacement of parquet flooring and installation of skirting boards.
- Sealing of windows to address leakage issues.
- Reconstruction of incorrectly installed shower cabins, installation of showers, taps, and verification of bathroom ventilation.
- Installation of sockets, wiring, and verification of electrical wiring in apartments.
- Reassembly of electrical panels to correct improper assembly and replacement of boxes.
- Establishment of telecommunication infrastructure, installation of antennas, TVs, and internet connections in apartments.
- Refurbishment of the garage area, including finishing work, realignment of entrances, and correct positioning of garage doors.
- Installation of ventilation systems and fire safety measures in the garage.
- Installation of a facade grate.
- Comprehensive cleaning of all apartments, the building, and the garage premises.

The update for 09.2023
The residential building in Xirivella is nearing its completion under the guidance of our new management. The construction works, which are expected to take up to two months and require a budget of 150k EUR (without VAT and related expenses), primarily focus on addressing quality issues related to painting works, plumbing, electrical systems, and hydro isolation. Additionally, special attention will be given to the interior finish, ensuring the units have a fresh and appealing look that will greatly support our sales strategy. Simultaneously, legal matters related to the commissioning of the building are being diligently handled, with an estimated timeframe of up to three months, and the selling process is projected to take up to five months.
With our clear timeline and focused vision, we are determined to expedite the final stages of the project, encompassing construction, legal matters, and sales. Through the implementation of improved project management and sales strategies, we are dedicated to swiftly reaching a successful completion of this project. With the plan we have in place, it is realistic that this project will be making repayments at the end of this year.

The update for 09.2022
As of now, the apartments in the Xirivella building are ready. The last element that needs to be finalised before commissioning the building is the car elevator that leads to underground parking. Since the model approved by the city architect is not produced anymore, the elevator of the newer model had to be approved. At the moment the necessary permissions are obtained and elevator installation timeline is 2-3 months.

The update for 01.2022
Reinvest24 first Spanish project is moving close to an end. The initial plan was to finalize the exit in January 2022. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the bureaucratic process was slower than expected, as the local authorities are open now 1 day per week instead of 5. Therefore the first stage will be repaid in the second week of February and the rest of the stages will be repaid one by one until the end of April.
As You can see in the pictures below, we were able to fully develop the inside of the building. Now all the apartments have laminated and tiled floors, as well as new windows and doors. The rooms are equipped with new bathroom and kitchen furniture. To date, all the apartments are ready to welcome new owners. 3 out of 10 apartments are sold, the rest are reserved. Our investors are also able to purchase these premises, therefore if You are looking for buying the property in the developing location near Valencia, kindly feel free to contact us or check this website.
