We live on a small development shared with two neighbours. The pool and garden are maintained by a part time gardener/pool man, and we all contribute equally to all the costs, including the annual payment to the P/T gardener/pool man. This has worked well until recently.
Our Turkish neighbour, who does not live in the house, cleared his house earlier in the year in order to 'help' with the sale of his property. Unfortunately he now says that as he does not live there - he never has other than for brief holidays - that he will now not pay anything towards any of the the bills, including the pool, electricity and worst of all paying the gardener/poolman. A really dirty trick on his fellow countryman who can least afford it
. So we have bills going back to the beginning of the year that he needs to pay, and which he steadfastly refuses to pay.
So any advice that you can provide on what our 'rights' are on this issue, or any tactics we could adopt to make him pay (fair or foul!!) would be appreciated, particularly during a period when he is 'vulnerable' as he tries to sell the house.
