Owners may request alternative graphic representation following Article 199.2 Mortgage Law procedures

The Resolution of 8 October 2025 allows owners to request the registration of an alternative georeferenced graphic representation of a property after completing the procedure set out in Article 199.2 of the Mortgage Law, even in the event of opposition from an adjacent owner. This mechanism aims to ensure the adequate representation of the property in the Land Registry, despite property disputes. The application is submitted via private petition and is processed at the Villacarriedo Land Registry (Art. 199.2).

In 2 key points

  1. Registration of alternative graphic representation is permitted following the processing of Article 199.2 of the Mortgage Law (art. 199.2)
  2. The application is submitted via private petition and is processed at the Villacarriedo Land Registry (hechos i, ii)

How it affects those involved

Owners of affected properties can now request alternative graphic representation even if a neighbour opposes it, expanding their right to an updated representation. Registry administrations must manage these procedures with greater flexibility. Real estate advisors should inform their clients about this available legal route. Adjacent owners may face an increased risk of disputes arising from the registration of alternative representations.
