Housing legalisation process
The legalisation process varies depending on the type of land and the location of the property, but generally includes:
- Application for building permit: Necessary to initiate the legalisation process at the local town hall.
- Assessment of the application: The municipality will review the application to ensure that it meets all legal requirements.
- Granting of the licence: Once approved, the licence is granted which will allow the property to be legally registered.
- Post-licence inspection: Verification that the modifications and construction meet legal standards.
Benefits of legalising your home
The legalisation of your home offers multiple benefits:
- Legal security: Protects your investment and secures your right to property.
- Access to services: It makes it easier to obtain basic services such as water and electricity.
- Market value: Increases the market value of your property as it is fully regularised.

This case involves properties that were built without the necessary licences or in contravention of the planning regulations in force at the time of construction. It requires regularising the situation by obtaining the appropriate licences and, often, making modifications to the property to comply with current legal standards.
Involves properties built in areas designated as unsuitable for urban development, such as rural or protected areas. Legalisation of these dwellings may require special processes, such as demonstrating that the construction does not adversely affect the environment or landscape.
This refers to cases where properties have been extended or modified without prior permission. This could include additions such as new rooms, garages or even swimming pools that were not initially approved by the local authorities.
This type of legalisation is carried out when a property does not comply with current building codes that ensure the safety and health of its occupants. It could involve the renovation of electrical, sanitary or structural installations to comply with current regulations.
Some properties may need to be legalised when the use for which they were designed is changed, such as transforming a warehouse into a residence or vice versa. This type of case requires ensuring that the property complies with the specific regulations for its new use.
In places such as Andalusia, Spain, this certificate is required for dwellings on undeveloped land which, although they cannot be fully legalised, need to be officially recognised in order to provide basic services and make permitted improvements.
