Holiday rentals on the Costa Blanca have always been a hot topic, but in recent weeks the discussion has become more explosive due to new legal regulations. With the recent decree that came into force and local adjustments introducing stricter regulations for rental licences, many property owners are facing new challenges. Andreas Schaich, a real estate agent with decades of experience on the Costa Blanca, gives us valuable insights into the effects of these changes and what investors should consider now.<\/p>\n\n

Property owners on the Costa Blanca should now carefully check which licences are required for their holiday homes, as experts directly influence investment decisions and rental strategies. <\/p>\n\n\n

What are the most important adjustments in the neighbouring municipalities?<\/strong>
The new decree on the future regulation of tourist licences was issued on 7 August 2024. The content is causing a lot of discussion, as many of the changes are difficult or impossible to implement in practice. A transitional period has therefore been agreed. Rental agreements that have already been concluded will therefore be exempt from the changes. This transitional period is to last until the end of 2024. After that, all new contracts would have to comply with the new requirements. As with any new law, there is still no experience of how this will work in practice. There are currently concerns from all sides as to whether the decree will remain in place and whether it can be implemented in practice. I personally believe that many points need to be adapted. Even the politicians who called for and passed these changes are of the opinion that many changes will probably follow. It is therefore impossible for us as brokers to make a serious statement at this point in time.
However, the aim is clear: there should be certain areas or entire regions in which no further tourist rental licences are to be issued in future. This is always limited in time and must be decided regularly by those responsible in the city or municipality. A good example is the city of Denia. Denia is currently in the process of not issuing any further tourist rental licences in the city centre.
I can summarise the most important changes here:<\/p>
