First Rental Closed by Government

Today, Canal 54 was seen with “Closed” signs. 
According to city officials, the owners were called to attend to a meeting at the Urban Development Office to revise their permit of land use, but they never attend. For that reason, the authorities closed the house rental.

Rental property closed by the Municipal Government for failure to comply with new regulations.

Since January 2019, people with a house to rent on digital platforms must have a permit to operate and pay the annual fee of 10,000. Three weeks ago, the city published a list with the requirements to get a permit.

  • copy of property deed.
  • copy of property tax payment.
  • copy of the letter issued by the office of Civil Protection with no objection for the use of land permit.
  • copy of the water payment issued by SAPASMA.
  • map of location (for example, via Google maps).
  • photographs of property (interior and exterior).
  • copy of a lease (if the property is rented from a third party). A letter of the owner with no objection to request the use of land permit must be attached.
  • if somebody different from the owner or the lesee request the permit, a proxy letter is required.
  • copy of ID.
  • copy of insurance which covers the guests in case of accident.
