Angel Varas, 81, waits standing in the door of his house in Wood Street, 24. His face conveys concern. His blue eyes and wrinkled speak of sadness and helplessness, but also of struggle. They are about to sell the house he has lived for over 20 years. Madrid City Council, which governs Ana Botella (Partido Popular), last sale of five buildings on the property Renta Corporación where 116 families live in rented cheaply. Those tenants are denied the option of buying their homes, even though they had that right by contract. As of December 12 must submit their keys. The City promises placement to other floors but far from the neighborhood I have spent half my life.
The affected properties are in the race for San Francisco (35 homes valued at 6.7 million in total), Street Ambassadors (24, 3.4 million), San Cayetano Street (52 by 7.3 million ) and Wood Street (19, $ 3.5 million). Of those 130 homes, rehabilitated with public funds, 117 are occupied by families who, despite being free housing, pay a social rent below the market price.
The Municipal Housing and Land (SLA) is committed to providing its tenants properties "similar characteristics", both rented as purchase, but in other districts. Municipal spokesman Progress and Democracy Union, David Ortega, said this week that 40% of those affected are older people that "they are going to create a trauma, sacándoles the place where they spent their entire life." The CEO of the SLA, Oslé Fermin responded that "the need for housing is not territorial but vital", and therefore, in his opinion, the homes where they are is not important.

The neighbors have been at war and have already announced resistance. "I for my house I will not," said Pepita Ramirez, 72, sitting in the small garden of the farm he shares with the other residents of Wood Street. In your building composer Luigi Boccherini lived and who knows if it was there, perhaps, in that garden accompanied by an orange and a Moorish fountain, where zarzuela La Clementina created.
Angel sighs. Not the first time that you are in this situation. In the nineties it realojaron in Madera after a struggle of three years in his former home in Almond Street. "They said my house in ruins and got 15 days to go," he recalls what happened then, just prior to disqualify what happens to the farm where he lives now: "an urban pitch". Pepita resigned looks and nods.
An eviction of 21 million euros
■ The 117 residents learned three weeks ago that the Municipal Housing and Land (SLA) had signed a contract with the realtor Income Corporation to sell their homes for 21 million euros.
■ The Municipal Housing Company (SLA) has said he will not take anyone out of his house and is committed to providing its tenants properties "similar characteristics" but in other districts (pay between 10 and 100 euros monthly rent).
■ The City Council has met with tenants to point out that they are forced to leave their homes until their contracts expire.
■ Iron Ignacio Lopez, the husband of Dolores Cospedal, PP Secretary General, is a member of the Board of Directors of the Corporation Income business.
■ The Housing Socialist spokesman in Congress, Leire Iglesias, has requested an explanation as to both Cospedal bottle.
Of the latter, they learned three weeks ago. "They came from social workers EMVS. Older people cried because they were told that the next owners would not respect their contracts and that it would be best to accept a relocation, "says Sol Alonso, another tenant in the building affected the career of San Francisco, 46. "Some have been given time to release the keys," he says.
Nugget is one. In the letter he received put that on December 12 must be filed in the office with the keys. "Overreached with the elderly. A younger peep not told, "laments one of those affected, Salva Martí. "I do not believe anything, suddenly jumps Angel's wife, Loli Carrasco.
An SLA spokesman tries to calm things down and ensures that seniors-largest group of buildings for sale-try realojarlas in the downtown district. "I wish we had home for everyone in this neighborhood, but it's not," said the company, which also argues that it is free to sell because the homes are not officially protected.
"Whether you are not officially protected" contradicts Eiriz Montserrat, one of the lawyers working with the neighbors. "Their rents are governed by Decree 100/86. This means that, by contract, they should have offered them first homes, "concludes complaining about the lack of transparency of the process. The SLA says no need to offer housing to existing tenants because they are selling the building block. "That's not true," said the lawyer. "I have found that there are local belonging to other owners. Not sold in bulk, "he says.

The City plans to enter this operation 21 million euros. "Given the current economic situation, is seen as a positive option to maintain the social action of the SLA," said Fermin Oslé. However, Botella has already decided to stop building social housing, so that the SLA is starting next year just to manage the apartments you have for rent. Or to sell some of them and "make safe", as reported by the municipal socialist leader, Jaime Lissavetzky, accusing mayor to act as "the president of a bad bank." "This is a situation worthy of Charles Dickens. Now comes the bottle home and tells them to go to the streets because we have too much debt to raise cash, "he added, referring to the cause of this situation: the precarious financial situation of the City Council after eight years as mayor of now Minister of Justice, Alberto Ruiz-Gallardón.
Income Corporation is an independent director Ignacio Lopez de Hierro, husband of the secretary general of the PP, María Dolores de Cospedal. The City Council has called it "coincidence", and the company has said that Lopez del Hierro "has had no involvement in either the study or in the negotiation, or the execution of the agreement." Has clarified further that the operation is not closed, but it "is studying the feasibility of the project, subject to compliance with certain conditions."
The United Left municipal spokesman, Angel Perez, said, according to a report of an accounting advice, economic capacity Renta Corporación is 1 out of 10, ie the minimum, and their situation is "very close to insolvency, with a very high risk of default. " He advocated it to sell the apartments to their tenants. They asked him for years, but the City Council replied in May 2007 that it was "impossible" to "dwellings lacking qualified to proceed with the sale." The floors are free, and as such have now been sold by the City.
The purchase option agreement signed on October 18, 2012 by the Income and Corporation SLA provides that if the company backed out, lost 60,000 euros for each property, up to a limit of 300,000. That grabbed Fermin Oslé to say that if the sale is frustrated, the less money the City will be entered. Although it was at the expense of the welfare of the tenants.
The City Council has met with them to point out that they are forced to leave their homes until their contract expires, then depend on the new owner set the rental price, which in some cases was now reduced to 10 euros per month. The Socialist spokesman for housing issues in Congress, Leire Iglesias, considers this operation "the height of cynicism, shamelessness and indecency policy", and has requested an explanation as to both bottle Cospedal itself, since the operation, "and legal or illegal, no longer a political indecency ".
Rafa Olmo, the property of the career of San Francisco, tried to buy his house in 2004. Sun also Alonso and other tenants of the five farms affected. "They told us in 2007: 'Unfortunately, there (...) can not access your application to sell'. And that was the end. I never went to bid as promised in the letter, "recalls Rafa, outraged at the situation. The SLA responds to this that "are other times" and in 2007 "not appropriate" sale.
Angel walks nimbly Gran Vía, despite his age. It addresses the first meeting of residents affected collective. They want to be a platform to be stronger in the courts if the situation ends in judgment. The meeting takes place between long faces and broken voice input. They begin to discuss the roadmap which will continue until 18 January, ending days of purchase option contract. The fight has begun.
