Selling a luxury property in Mallorca is a relatively easy operation when in the hands of a competent and professional real estate agency such as Frank Heinsbroek Real Estate Boutique. Our team of real estate agency experts can advise you in the best way possible during your sale, but you should know that there is an essential document you require so that the house sale is possible and an obligation for the Vendor. It can be obtained fairly quickly if you have all of the required information. In this blog article we will be informing you on what you must do to obtain an Energy Performance Certificate to be able to sell your property.
The Energy Performance Certificate is a document which is essential in these types of operations. Knowing when and how to request this process can avoid an unnecessary complication between the seller, buyer and the estate agency. As the property owner it is compulsory that you be in possession of an energy performance certificate for your property in Mallorca, as stated in the Royal Decree 235/2013. The obligatory nature of this means that both the seller and the buyer must take it into account, as long as it is not a useable living area of less than 50 m2 in an isolated area, or if it is an industrial building that houses workshops or when purchased to be demolished. Otherwise it is imperative to have one.
In the previous section we spoke about the involvement of the seller and the buyer together with the real estate agency. This is due to the fact that the Energy Performance Certificate is crucial the very second the property for sale is publicised. You must present the certificate and have it in your possession and then publicise it with the listing of the offer in question. This way, the certificate is included in the contract and is handed over to the buyer once they have purchased the property. The fact of not having the Energy Performance certificate presents risks for the three parties: It can have fines of 300 to 6,000 euros, which will put everyone at risk.
At Frank Heinsbroek Real Estate Boutique, we would like to tell you that if you have a property listed with us and it does not have or you have not applied for the certificate, please, contact one of our real estate agents.
Doing things properly, is always worth the effort. Which is why our real estate agency in Pollensa recommends having an Energy Performance Certificate for your property to be able to put your luxury property in Mallorca up on the market. We will take care of the rest and help guide you to reach a successful sale. Do you have a query or a question? Don’t worry, contact us and we will resolve it. Let’s talk!
