Cases

What the sale dossierdoes not disclose.

Three buyer archetypes, three classes of pre-purchase risk that QuickLease catches before the notary appointment. These are scenarios — not testimonials — built from the regulatory patterns we audit every week.

When a single community vote takes Airbnb off the table.

A retired couple from Manchester targets a two-bed flat in central Marbella. The plan: short-let it eight months a year and use it themselves three weeks per summer. The agent positions it as a turnkey rental.
The community of owners passed an Article 17.12 LPH resolution in 2024 prohibiting tourist use. The vote is recorded in the comunidad's libro de actas but never surfaced in the sale dossier. Closing would mean owning a property that cannot legally take a single Airbnb booking.
QuickLease finding
Layer 01 surfaces the bylaw vote, with the signed acta cited. Layer 02 separately confirms Marbella centro is now under a partial VFT licence freeze. Two independent reasons, both pre-purchase.
Outcome
The buyers pivoted to a similar flat 600 metres south, in a community with no 17.12 vote and an open municipal licence. Same agent. Same week.

When two of three target properties sit inside a saturated zone.

A Miami-based investor wants to acquire three flats in Ruzafa to operate as a short-term portfolio, structured as a small Spanish SL.
Valencia's PEUAT-style zoning has declared parts of Ruzafa saturated. Inside the saturated polygon, the city refuses new tourist licences and refused-application records propagate to the autonomous registry. Without checking, two of the three flats would be unbookable from day one.
QuickLease finding
Layer 02 returns the municipal zoning map and the open refusal records. Layer 04 confirms one active VT registry entry and two prior refusals on the same addresses.
Outcome
The investor restructured: bought the one viable flat, redirected the remaining capital to Alicante where the licence position is currently open. Avoided two dead-money acquisitions.

When the right rental classification is the difference between €0 and €30,000 in sanctions.

A Galway-based retiree buys a villa in the Cádiz province to live in eight months a year and rent during her four months in Ireland. Her intent is alquiler de temporada — seasonal, multi-week tenancies — not tourist rental.
Spanish law treats vivienda habitual (LAU 29/1994), alquiler de temporada (Civil Code framework) and tourist (regional VT registries) as three distinct regimes. Misclassifying as VT when you mean temporada triggers Andalucía's regional sanction table (up to €30,000 for unregistered tourist activity).
QuickLease finding
Layer 03 maps the seasonal-vs-tourist tax and sanction differences for Andalucía. Layer 04 confirms the property does not need a VT registry entry if marketed correctly as temporada — but documents the language the contract must use to stay outside the tourist regime.
Outcome
She entered the regime cleanly with the right contractual template. Her fiscal advisor used the QuickLease report directly when filing the Modelo 100 declaration the following spring.
