Acute Danger in Cala Major: Six Shops Cordoned Off — Who Bears Responsibility?

Answer

Who is responsible for structural maintenance in mixed-use buildings in Mallorca?

Responsibility usually depends on ownership arrangements, which can be complicated in mixed-use buildings with shops below and homes above. In practice, owners are generally expected to organise inspections and pay for repairs according to their share or legal agreement. When several parties are involved, delays often happen because no one is clearly in charge at the start.
