Owners of property in Marbella can starting relax now. Marbella Town Halls mayor, Ángeles Muñoz, did have a press conference this week and she made it clear her intention to legalize most of the illegally built property in the municipality, including that constructed during the years of the GIL administration.
Totally, she said that is estimated 18,000 buildings constructed under GIL era and after with his illegal licenses, which did not meet the requirements of the 1986 Urban Plan, would now be legalized, and that includes some of the most controversial examples such as Banana Beach with 300 residents, and the constructions at La Vibora and Río Real with 30 residents each one. There are so many people who have purchased apartments, townhouses and villas who were illegal whiteout know that. Despite their being technical and judicial reports issued against the legality of these buildings, they are now included in the ‘normalizations process’.
Marbella Town Halls new PGOU urban plan leaves only some 1,000 illegal structures and most of those are not completed, and hence unoccupied. What is going to happen with then is not clear jet. But the Mayor, Ángeles Muñoz, says she will protect those who purchased any apartments or villas in Marbella in good faith and have been swindled by builders and lawyers.

Good news for the property owners affected by this but it does sort of open up a can of worms IF this continues and more illegal developments go up in the future and people will expect their property to be legalised because of what they are doing here.
But it is good news for once in Spain!
