Back in 2011, Barcelona brought a law to control the private residential properties. Soon it spread to all the Costas with active backing of Hotel Industry which saw private properties as a big competition and threat to their business. So if you are home owner looking to rent your property, first, register your property to the ministry responsible for Tourism. You need to submit a statement to the ministry and once submitted, the property can be rented out with immediate effect. The minimum contents of statement will include Property details including cadastral reference and maximum capacity as per license of occupation, and the information about property owner including contact address for notification. The ministry will provide a unique property number which is to be used for all further communication with the officials. A lot of property owners have taken help from Property 2 www.plusguests.com
