But you should be very careful when buying a finca in need of renovation, because especially in the countryside of Mallorca, very strict guidelines are in place for buildings and renovations.<\/p><blockquote><p>Property in the countryside is called &#8220;R\u00fastico&#8221; in Spanish<\/p><\/blockquote><p>It is necessary to clarify in advance if the property in the countryside<em> (&#8220;R\u00fastico&#8221; in Spanish)<\/em> can also get a building license\/permit, and if so, also find a responsible construction company\/contractor where you can smoothly implement the desired plans <em>(feel free to write to us, we can give you some good recommendations after zone)<\/em>. It is best to request an estimate <em>(&#8220;presupuesto&#8221; in Spanish)<\/em>, and in it, a detailed list of items. Materials and labor hours should be listed (normally a margin of possible variations of 10% is included). If you, the builder, accept the estimate, a payment schedule should also be prepared. Generally, a deposit is made for the materials and preparations for the renovation. Partial payments are scheduled according to the different stages of construction. The final payment is made to the contractor after a thorough inspection, and the determination that there are no defects. If faults do occur, the construction company is responsible for rectifying them.<\/p><blockquote><p>It is important to choose a suitable construction company.<\/p><\/blockquote><p> <\/p><h2>Construction company for finca renovation<\/h2><p>There is a wide range of good construction companies in Mallorca. But here are some important points to pay attention to:<\/p><ul><li>The company should have <strong>experience in the commissioned segment<\/strong> <em>(it is not the same to completely renovate a finca than a small apartment)<\/em>.<\/li><li>It should be <strong>regional<\/strong> <em>(a good connection to the authorities, good knowledge of what is possible in the community and what is not)<\/em>, so it is recommended to use a local construction company.<\/li><li><strong>Good communication<\/strong> to avoid misunderstandings <em>(ideally the company should have someone who speaks their language)<\/em>.<\/li><li><strong>Northern European standard<\/strong> in construction quality (the contractor should have experience with foreign customers and also know their quality standard).<\/li><li>Be <strong>trustworthy<\/strong> (it&#8217;s best to ask for a referral from someone you trust).<\/li><\/ul><p>Sometimes it is difficult to find all these points in a construction company, so the perfect solution is to call in someone as a construction manager who communicates with the construction companies and always fights for your interests to realize the project as well, quickly and cheaply as possible (we can also help here, contact us here <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucasfroeserealestate.com\/en\/kontakt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">construction management contact form<\/a>).<\/p><div id=\"attachment_38258\" style=\"width: 366px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38258\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38258\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lucasfroeserealestate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/renovierungsbeduerftige-finca-kaufen-01.jpg\" alt=\"Finca in need of renovation in Mallorca\" width=\"356\" height=\"725\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucasfroeserealestate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/renovierungsbeduerftige-finca-kaufen-01.jpg 356w, https:\/\/www.lucasfroeserealestate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/renovierungsbeduerftige-finca-kaufen-01-147x300.jpg 147w, https:\/\/www.lucasfroeserealestate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/renovierungsbeduerftige-finca-kaufen-01-74x150.jpg 74w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 356px) 100vw, 356px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-38258\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Finca in need of renovation in Mallorca<\/p><\/div><h3>Renovation or core refurbishment?<\/h3><p>Also, it is very important to always distinguish whether the finca needs a renovation or a complete core renovation, because the effort and cost factor is very different.
