Before buying in Es Mercadal
Alongside the type of home, consider the distance to the services you need throughout the year, access and the maintenance the property requires. In coastal areas, check the level of activity outside the summer season and any development or community charges.
Documents and renovation possibilities vary from one property to another. Before committing, check the Land Registry and planning position and obtain technical or legal advice when the condition, age or location makes it advisable.
