      • Well-equipped bathrooms and kitchens.
      • Terrace or solarium are highly demanded.
      • The urbanisation. (e.g. swimming pool, communal play areas for children, etc.).

      On the other hand, the technical condition of the property and the building in which it is located must be taken into account, as it is necessary to cover repair costs and time, which were not contemplated in the financial plan. E.g.) Rehabilitation of the building, installations, damp, renovation, etc.

      In short, not taking these aspects into account means that your investment will not be the right one.

      • Urban development compatibility report.
      • Certificate of habitability.
      • Energy Efficiency Certificate.

      Change of ownership tourist license in Comunidad Valenciana

      If you are going to buy a flat that already has a tourist licence, it is important to know that a change of ownership is possible. In this way, you will be able to exploit the licence.

      Likewise, you may have noticed that flats with a holiday rental licence have a higher monetary value.

      This is because there are many legal restrictions on obtaining a new licence. However, when it comes to transferring it, there are not so many difficulties and nowadays, you do not need prior permission from the local council.

      Check tourist licence code Comunitat Valenciana

      Before making the purchase, the first thing to do is to make sure that the property has a tourist licence. Therefore, ask for the VT code and check it in the following link:

      • Documentation that accredits the new ownership
      • Tourist Licence Document
      • New holder’s National Identity Card
      • DNI (National Identity Card) of the old holder
