Its sounds like yours is not and you wont be able to get an individual license as they are only allowed for detached properties. Mallorca is very strict on this and more strict than the other regions of Spain and the penalty can be 20,000 euros if you get caught or reported by others in the community or the management company. Was you sold it as a potential rental property?...maybe you could have some comeback on the agents. Spam post? If so please click here to report it

It differs from one Community to another, but know that rental rights are part of the constitutionalized right to private property ansd restrictions need to be freely consented by owners and never imposed. Did you buy the apartment as a touristic apartment? _______________________ Maria L. de Castro, JD, MA Lawyer Director www.costaluzlawyers.es Spam post? If so please click here to report it
