Keeping order on a Community

Hi all 
I have been told today by 2 people that there are some changes in renting and selling your property 

hopefully some one can correct or fine tune the points i understand 

i shall try and explain 

Most estate agents have been closed or have taken properties out of there windows over the last couple of days 

The new rules  state you must have the following information to hand befor you can sell your property , and the estate agents want it in the file or they will not advertise the sale 

1   Note a simple 

2  Bazura   rubbish tax

3  e bee  spelt wrong and dont know what it is 

If i understood correcty for renting your property out all of the above 

plus a licence to rent your property out from the town hall 

Talking to a couple of estate agents , they do not fully undestand the rules and regulations fully 

As an earlier posting i did say the old , or young tax man has a team looking thru the web sites to see who is renting their  apartments out and from what i was told they have had a knock on ther door , not in this area
This conversation came up again today  and they are begining to catch up with people 
Hopefully some one may be able to come up with some facts on this sooner rather than later

Received this from my property management company which tends to confirm Dave's e mail

I would be very wary of handing over a copy of such a powerful document (escritura) to anyone. Our administrators requested a copy and on the advice of our solicitor I refused. I can see why they may need a licence and perhaps proof that the "council tax equivalnnet" had been paid, but why on earth should the agent require a copy of your utility bills?  Also how does that work if you don't use an agent to rent your property, but do it yourself? Surely if you receive a licence, you have already proven to the relevant authorities that you have sufficient insurance etc?

Those of us that have already built and finished urbs will know nothing of this, only finding out through the Thalassa forum. It is hard enough trying to do all the registration stuff when not resident, without these extra "hoops" to jump through.

Your lucky if you can rent it due to no snags being done and now the spa being closed

good luck  cheers lynda 

My solicitor has confirmed that the authorities are within their rights to expect property management companies to request this type of information and that it is all perfectly legal. Will keep you posted but if anyone else has further information please respond to this thread.
