Frequently asked questions about urban planning consultancy
No. Urban planning consultancy is our most common service, but we also provide advice across all stages of the building process. We can assist you from the initial analysis of a plot through to more technical queries during project development, planning procedures, and even during construction, offering support in the coordination and management of the entire building process. We also collaborate with other professionals in the sector — such as architects, developers, or estate agents — who need support with local planning regulations, particularly teams that do not regularly work in the area.
It is a technical study that determines what can be built on a specific plot of land according to current planning regulations: maximum floor area ratio, permitted height, setbacks, permitted uses and possible restrictions. It is a fundamental step before buying land or starting a project, whether for a new build or a renovation.
You will receive a clear, structured report with a fully understandable summary of the planning regulations that apply to your plot. We explain directly what can and cannot be done, without unnecessary technical language, so you can make decisions with confidence.
We deliver the report within 24 hours of receiving the plot information. In more complex cases we will let you know in advance, but in most situations you will have a clear answer within a single day.
The cost of the report depends on the type of plot and its complexity, but we always make this clear before starting, with no obligation. Our goal is to give you a fast, reliable answer that helps you avoid far more costly mistakes in the future.
The main difference is speed. While the Town Hall can take weeks or months to issue an urban planning certificate, we deliver the information within 24 hours. It is important to note that our report is purely informative and does not replace an official certificate.
The report is prepared by local architects with direct experience on the Costa del Sol, who are familiar with the planning regulations of each municipality. We analyse the PGOU and the relevant municipal planning framework to provide you with up-to-date, rigorous information tailored to your specific plot.
We work exclusively in the province of Málaga, with direct experience in the planning regulations of the main municipalities on the Costa del Sol such as Marbella, Benahavís, Estepona, Mijas, Fuengirola, Benalmádena, Torremolinos, Málaga, Nerja, and Vélez-Málaga. This local knowledge allows us to provide more precise, realistic reports tailored to each specific case.
Yes. In this case, we analyse whether your property meets the requirements for a legalisation process or whether it can benefit from the AFO regime (Assimilated Outside Planning), and we outline the steps to follow in your specific situation.
Once you receive the report, you will have a clear picture of what can be done on your plot and what the next steps are. If needed, we can guide you through the process, whether by answering questions or supporting you in later stages such as project development or planning procedures.
