A moratorium is currently in place in some areas – mainly housing estates – on Mallorca. To put it simply, this is a construction freeze. This means that no building permits are being issued for new buildings or extensions. In the north-east, the settlements of Costa Canyamel, Els Pelats in Cala Ratjada and parts of Betlem in the municipality of Artà are among those affected by this regulation. In our property listings, we have labelled these settlements as “partially developed” and/or ” expected building land”.
