So sad that you appear to hate your tourist visitors..Of course, you know we also have so many other alternative places to visit. It will not be a surprise to you therefore that we will go to Croatia this year instead and have a really lovely time without your nasty and vicious racism. Goodbye!
Ian, the law doesn't totally stop lets of less than a month. Owners would need to prove that a let of 30 days or under is not "tourist". Someone with a job contract that can be shown as evidence, one would think, should be proof.
This is terrible for these people. Ok yes they should have the right licences but to say a let if less than 30 days is classed as tourist is discrimination surely? I quite often work away from home and I have even worked out if the UK before, some if these jobs have been less than 30 days and yet I'm not on holiday, I'm working!!!
Well although I own an apt myself in Mallorca I have just booked myself 2 weeks in Croatia next year and am now considering selling my apartment ... not because of rental laws as I don't rent mine out its because going to mallorca at the moment is feeling more and more like gate crashing a party and you not welcolm ?
I don,t understand the problem. Get a licence, quote the number in your ads etc and carry on as a tax paying small business.................unless of course you aparments are in a community block where other tax paying residents live.
I corrected my own spelling typo and got a red mark for doing so! Lol!
Impuesto (typo!)
Liz: OK I thought you were referring to the Inpuesto de Patrimonio for residents.Frank: It’s total assets of €700k excluding habitual residence up to €300k. That excludes the average person and only includes the wealthy. But the wealthy often don’t consider themselves to be wealthy…..
All property owners pay tax each year even if you only own a studio worth next to nothing, I'm talking about the non residents tax. Although I can foresee far fewer paying this tax in the future when we've all offloaded our properties at reduced prices.
I called my rental agent who advised my apartment contract for September had been cancelled by the owner because of the licensing issue. With only a month before the start of my holiday and with no other apartment available they agreed to return the Euros 1400 I had paid. Nearly a month later and despite chasing the agent and speaking to them, the money has not been returned. Are any of your readers having the same problem?
