Real Estate Lawyer in Ciutat Vella (Barcelona)

Legal advice in the old town —Gothic Quarter, Born, Raval and Barceloneta—, with protected buildings, older buildings and particularly strict urban planning rules.

Ciutat Vella holds Barcelona's greatest historical appeal and also its most demanding regulations: listed buildings, tourist-licence restrictions (PEUAT) and older buildings that require a careful technical review. It is an area of great interest to investors, but with specific risks.

Buying and investing in the old town

  • Checking heritage protection and permitted uses (can it be used for tourist rental?).
  • Condition of the building: aluminosis, damp, occupancy and tenants on old controlled rents.
  • Conveyancing, earnest money and due diligence for investment.

We offer all our real estate law services in Ciutat Vella and across Barcelona: conveyancing, taxes, inheritance, earnest money, due diligence and leases.

Frequently asked questions

We answer your questions


It depends: Ciutat Vella has strong restrictions (PEUAT) and most new tourist licences are limited. We verify the exact situation of the property before you buy.
