- Situation
- 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.
- The risk
- 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.
