Answer

What could Mallorca do to make occupied property sales more transparent?

Clearer listing rules would help, especially if ads had to state whether a property is occupied and what legal situation applies. Mallorca could also benefit from more mediation between owners, residents and buyers, so fewer cases end up only in court. Better verification by platforms and agents would make the market easier to trust.
