Lujocasa ruling: Why Mallorca must finally address the causes of real estate fraud

Answer

Why is Mallorca especially vulnerable to property fraud?

Mallorca has a busy property market, many international buyers and a constant flow of new developments, which can create opportunities for abuse. Fraud can spread more easily when buyers are unfamiliar with local rules or rely too heavily on marketing material and intermediaries. That makes clear checks and stronger oversight especially important on the island.
