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

Answer

How can buyers in Mallorca protect themselves from real estate fraud?

Buyers in Mallorca should be cautious whenever a project asks for large advance payments before construction or approvals are properly in place. It is also important to check who owns the company, whether the project is registered and whether payments are protected through proper legal or banking safeguards. A notary, lawyer or trusted local adviser can help identify warning signs early.
