DCC Properties have recently been set up. Two people who are involved in this are Wendy MacAnthony and Michael Liggan. These two people were prominent in MacAnthony Realty International (MRI).

If you do a search on MRI you will find many, many complaints and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

People have complained about promised rental guarantees not materialising, being persuaded to buy more properties than they actually wanted, then not being able to get mortgages for them, capital growth not happening, MRI stating that they could resell properties, then not being able to etc etc.

The list goes on and on. Many people have lost thousands of pounds.

They have just been found guilty of malpractice by the National Association of Estate Agents/National Federation of Property Professionals, of which they were a member.

As the individuals involved in DCC Properties were part of MRI when all this was going on, I would avoid both companies like the plague.

MacAnthony Realty International found guilty of malpractice/DCC Properties

#5Author of original report

Tue, February 10, 2009

MRI (MacAnthony Realty International) were found guilty of malpractice on various counts by the National Federation of Property Professionals (NFOPP)/National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA), an organisation of which MRI were a member. MRI immediately resigned from the organisation and put in an appeal. Darragh MacAnthony is Chairman of MRI and also Chairman of Peterborough FC.

The full hearing can be read at www.cyprus-news-property-buyers.com.

Part of it reads 'The tribunal were appalled to hear of the Company's misleading business practices, including unfulfilled promises of guaranteed rental returns and misleading descriptions of the facilities that would be available to owners.

The Company accepted deposits for unbuilt and unidentified properties. In some cases a purchase price was not included in the documentation provided to buyers. These problems were compounded by the Company's poor service, including their reluctance to resolve grievances after sales had been agreed.

Despite these omissions, the Company's position is that there is no right of cancellation by buyers and therefore their deposits have not been returned to them. As a result members of the public have lost considerable sums of money resulting from false and enticing statements made by the Company.'

I personally am in contact with many people that this has happened to, including ourselves. MRI make everything sound wonderful and make out that they make property buying easy and a happy experience. Unfortunately, this is far from the truth, in our experience. It has been a complete nightmare, has left us in a really bad position financially and I would adivse anyone to stay away from MRI.

Two of the prominent staff of MRI, Wendy MacAnthony and Michael Liggan have now opened DCC Properties. As these people were working in high profile positions for MRI when people had their problems, which still haven't been resolved, I would also advise staying well clear of DCC Properties.
