Answer

How will the five-year residency requirement for Mallorca buyers be checked?

The residency rule is likely to be verified through documents such as registration certificates, tax records and possibly school records. That could create a fairer system, but it may also make the process more bureaucratic for applicants, especially self-employed people and seasonal workers in Mallorca.
