The first permit starts with feasibility
The question what permits are needed to build a house in Mallorca should start with the planning status of the plot. Without that base, any concept may be unviable.
Buildability, setbacks, occupancy limits, and local planning constraints define the real project framework.
Technical design and building permit
Once feasibility is confirmed, the technical design is developed and permit documentation is prepared. Consistency between report, drawings, and compliance strategy is critical.
An incomplete submission increases correction requests and delays construction start.
Permit planning is time and cost planning
Permits are not an isolated formality: they affect timeline, procurement, and budget. Integrating them early improves decision quality.
At BAU, we structure new-build projects in Mallorca by combining planning strategy, design, and technical management to reduce uncertainty.
