The Monthly Community Charge Explained

The monthly community charge is split into 3 separate parts:

1. Block costs (covering electric, cleaning of corridors etc)*

2. Garage costs (covering provision of fire extinguishers, lighting etc)**

3. Community costs (covering cost of running the swimming pool, night lighting etc)**

* Block costs are controlled by your Block President and are around 25 euros per month

** Garage and Community costs are currently controlled by Julio Aijou who is the adminstrator, (telephone number is 615 070 664). Garage costs are around 5 euros per month while community charges are around 20 euros per month.

In total you should factor on paying around 50.00 euros per month but it can be more or less than this depending on the total square metres of your property.

In addition to the main blocks overlooking the central courtyard there are other community blocks located across the road which form part of the wider community and also belong to the same complex. Some of these blocks have their own extra offerings such as a roof top swimming pool. However, these tenants have to pay for their own block amenities as well as the general community costs so while they have access to the main swimming pool, the main block doesn't have access to their rooftop pool (unless they want to arrange to pay extra for this facility of course!).
