Anyone who owns a property in Mallorca must sooner or later ask themselves the question - what will happen to my holiday property when I am no longer alive? Is giving it as a gift during my lifetime the right step or would a normal inheritance be a better way?

Doubly punished: In these pandemic times criminals may have even more success

Using a holiday rental apartment as a home office is currently very popular but it is, however, advisable, never to rent a holiday home privately if you do not know the alleged owners. by Stefanie Claudia Müller Fourty year-old Pablo Cerda has experienced many criminal activities during his profession as an actor and filmmaker and has read about many unpleasant tricks, but has himself become the victim of a confidence trick in the normally safe Spanish capital of Madrid.

Smaller pools, less living space – Mallorca introduces new construction regulations for fincas

Spring 2020 – Mallorca's economy suffers massively from the effects of the Corona Pandemic. At the end of May came the desired, positive signal from Madrid – at the latest from the 1st July foreign tourists can enter the country once again.

The 'decreto Ley 9/2020 de medidas urgentes de proteccion del territorio de l...
