The second occupancy certificate of occupancy in Murcia has a variable rate depending on the type of dwelling and its surface. For a 100m2 house, the cost would be as follows:
For homes with a surface area greater or less than 100m2, the cost is adapted according to the surface area, not being able to give you a calculation formula right now. If you are interested in the exact rate, ask us.
For first occupancy certificates, the associated rate will be 4% of the Construction Material Execution Budget, the so-called I.C.I.O. o Tax on Constructions, Installations and Works.
To obtain the certificate of occupancy in Murcia, you need a serie of documents depending on the type of license you are looking for.
If what you need is a responsible declaration of second occupation (the most common), because it has expired or you need it for any type of procedure, you will need the following documents. Normally they are not difficult to obtain, you have the list below:
Documentation required to obtain the license for second or successive occupations in the Murcia City Council
On the contrary, if you need a first occupation license in Murcia, you face another longer and more complicated process. It is not as direct as second occupation licenses, but it can be obtained if the right conditions are met.
Here we leave you the list of documents, but we advise you to consult before starting this process in case your property does not meet the necessary conditions.
Detached house self-promotion and building license requested before 10/17/2006 - Murcia City Council
Detached house self-promotion and building license requested after 10/17/2006 - Murcia City Council
Multi-family or single-family housing not self-promotion - Murcia City Council
Property legalization files - Murcia City Council
If you have any questions about the responsible declarations of first and second occupation in Murcia, we will try to answer them below:
Is the certificate of occupancy mandatory?
The certificate of habitability of first and second occupation is, theoretically, mandatory in all cases.
All homes should have a current certificate of occupancy. However, this is not the case and it is not penalized for it.
Is the certificate of occupancy mandatory in Murcia to sell or rent a home?
The certificate of occupancy is mandatory to be able to rent or sell a home in the Region of Murcia. So, it must be valid in order to be sold with the use of the home, in case the property is sold to carry out a comprehensive reform it would not be necessary.
Something similar happens with the energy efficiency certificate.
Who issues the certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
The certificate of occupancy for both first and second occupancy is issued by the corresponding Town Hall.
In spite of that, you will need the certificate of habitability, which can be drawn up by architects or quantity surveyors.
How to get the certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
Obtaining the certificate of occupancy in Murcia is very simple, since you will only need the certificate of occupancy, a representative blueprint as well as paying the town hall fees.
On this same page you can find the documentation you need for both the responsible declaration of first and second occupation.
When does the certificate of occupancy expires in Murcia?
The certificate of occupancy in the Region of Murcia expires in 15 years.
Both first and second occupation certificates are valid for 15 years, so after that time, a second or successive occupation certificate must be requested at the corresponding town hall.
How to renew the certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
If the certificate of occupancy of your home has expired, you will need to renew it.
To renew a certificate of occupancy you will need to present the responsible declaration for second or successive occupations.
Once all the documentation has been submitted, and presented at the Town Hall, it’ll be fully valid and you will be able to use it for whatever you want.
How to obtain a copy of the certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
If you have lost the copy of your certificate of occupancy, do not worry, because for a small fee you can request another copy as long as it is still valid.
Of course, you can request a copy as long as you are the holder of the original certificate of occupancy.
Where to consult the certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
There is no portal where you can check if your home has a valid certificate of occupancy or not.
The only option that exists to be able to know this information is to consult it in the City Council’s urban planning area. They’ll check their file and tell you.
Of course, in the event that there has been a recent sale, you’ll have to take into account that you won’t be the holder of the certificate of occupancy, so you won’t be able to request a copy for the procedure you need.
What are the requirements to obtain a certificate of occupancy in Murcia?
The requirements to obtain a certificate of occupancy in a home are quite simple and are usually met by all homes.
Among these requirements are minimum surfaces (36m2), the existence of a living-dining room, a bedroom, a kitchen and a complete bathroom, or that all rooms have ventilation to the outside except the bathroom.
At Leukos Architecture we write and present certificates of habitability in Murcia with all the guarantees. We have a file presentation and management service at the town hall and, in the case of second-occupancy licenses, one day after the visit to the home.
The budget includes the certificate of habitability, visit to the property and the delivery of all the receipts.
For first occupancy licenses in the Murcia City Council, we don’t offer a closed budget, due to how complicated the process is. We advise you for free and we give you a budget without commitment.
