Owners of tourist rental properties: express authorisation from the community of owners required for registration

The Directorate General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith confirms that express approval from the community of owners is required for registration in the Single Registry of Tourist Housing Leases. The resolution upholds the negative assessment by the Land Registrar of Pontevedra No. 1, who suspended the assignment of a registration number due to the absence of such enabling title. This criterion reinforces the requirement for community consent for the operation of short-term rentals in buildings under horizontal property regimes.

In 2 key points

  1. The lack of express approval from the community of owners leads to a negative registration assessment (Hechos I)
  2. Failure to rectify this issue allows for the removal of advertisements on rental platforms (nota de calificación, apartado 2)

How it affects those involved

This ruling increases the legal requirements for short-term rental operators, necessitating formal community approval to obtain official registration and avoid potential removal from rental platforms.
