Finding New Home Builders and Contractors in Spain

From the Costa del Sol to urban projects in Madrid, Spain offers diverse construction opportunities. However, the bureaucracy can be navigating without local help.

Key Considerations

  • Architect vs. Builder: In Spain, you typically need an architect (arquitecto) for the project design and a technical architect (aparejador) to oversee the construction quality, separate from the builder.
  • Permits: Building licenses (licencia de obra) are handled by the local Town Hall (Ayuntamiento).
