Laura Ballegeer - Eric Garcia - Ronald James Campbell Ron Arunen - Iversiones Soblar S.A. De C.V Bought a condiminium unit in San Felipe and received an email that the project had lost its financing and my deposit of $128,065 is basically gone Palm Springs California
Laura Baleeger Ron Arunen and her company Iversiones Soblar S.A. de C.V. Playa De Paraiso San Felipe , Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico promised me a unit at Playa De Paraiso. I signed a purchase contract and put a down payment of approximately $128K for this unit promised in June 2008. I have called both the salesperson, the company, Laura Baleeger over 25 times to no avail. They would NEVER return my calls or emails. I later received an email from the company stating " I am sorry that the project is on hold due to lost funding and we have NO TIMELINE for the project.
I then asked for a refund of my deposit. The response was " We do not have a buyback program" nor do we have an estimated time when one may be implemented. At this time I felt that I was SCAMMED... I began posting on the internet to find other victims of the fraud. I began to receive emails from other victims and am still looking. I have also received an email informing me that laura Baleeger is trying to sell the project for $15 million. Laura and her company have proportedly received over 10 million in deposits from unsuspecting buyers of the units and now has the audacity to want more money for the project. The buyers are probably out all of their money becauaes it seems that the laws in mexico will not protect us. It is possible that the project can be sold and the contracts will not be honored.
Since she refuses to return any phone calls...we can only surmise. After Laura received word of the postings on the internet to warn other buyers...she then filed a bogus 12 million dollar plus lawsuit against me for slander and defamation TO SHUT ME UP FROM PRINTING THE TRUTH ON THE INTERNET. I will not let this stop me from sharing the TRUTH. This is the very reason we have the internet and wonderful sites like this one to share tales of horror. I am once again asking all buyers in the project to please COME FORWARD so we can work together as a team to recieve some justice.
We did everything in good faith in hopes of receiving a nice vacation home for our family now we have nothing but a lot of broken promises and a lawsuit to defend. IF WE DO NOT ALL COME TOGETHER FAST, WE COULD ALL POTENTIALLY LOOSE OUR DEPOSITS AND OUR DREAMS OF HAVING A HOME IN SAN FELIPE.

During the last six months I posted and sent emails making inflammatory and derogatory statements about Playa del Paraiso and its developer, Soblar. After careful consideration and receiving new information from Soblar regarding the development, I agree to retract these statements. I hereby withdraw and retract my statements. Andra R.
