Developer blames Coronavirus pandemic for delays
Prospective buyers at the new Dandara housing estate in Ballasalla could miss out on their new home because of delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Reayrt Mie developer is blaming a shortage of labour and materials.
It has returned the £1,000 plot reservation fee for houses due to be completed after 30 June.
Before that date some people have been given as little as two weeks to pay a 10% deposit to secure a home.
Local MHK Graham Cregeen met with Dandara yesterday to raise the issue:
