Short-term holiday rentals: 3-month window to obtain express community approval

The resolution suspends the issuance of unique registration numbers for short-term holiday rentals due to the lack of express approval from the homeowners' association, in accordance with the reform of the Horizontal Property Act effective from 3 April 2025. This requirement applies when the circumstances align with those analysed in previous rulings by the Management Centre. The measure aims to ensure collective consent in such cases.

In 2 key points

  1. Issuance of registration numbers is suspended due to lack of express approval from the homeowners' association (resolución de 13 de noviembre de 2025)
  2. Applicable from 3 April 2025 following the reform of the Horizontal Property Act (previsiones que derivan de la reforma de la Ley sobre propiedad horizontal en vigor desde el día 3 de abril de 2025)

How it affects those involved

For homeowners within community properties, this introduces a new requirement for express approval before short-term holiday rentals can be registered. Homeowners' associations must formally evaluate and approve each case. Property managers and advisors must verify whether a case falls within the scope of the reform and act accordingly. Individuals wishing to offer holiday rentals must coordinate with their homeowners' association before submitting an application.
