Retirees Stuck in Developer Limbo | Sydney News

from Sydney News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A retiree’s dream home turned nightmare: Janice Cahill paid $60,000 for an apartment meant to be her new home—complete with a lift for her mobility needs—only to face endless delays as the Bathla Group, riddled with $3 billion in debt and under investigation, drags its feet. She’s not alone; Marie Sinclair’s elderly parents are stuck living with their daughter after selling their home, all because their new apartment isn’t ready. Inspections reveal ongoing issues at Bathla sites, including graffiti, unattended doors, and unfinished work—all while the company spins tales of progress and blames external factors for delays. With a labyrinth of subsidiaries and a history of regulatory fines, Bathla keeps pushing forward, even as buyers wait, wonder, and worry.
