Questions for the seller, landlord or agent
About the works next door
- “10 homes at Calle Peinado 7” (10 m away): when do the works end and what are the working hours?
- “Detailed study (Estudio de detalle) at Alameda Capuchinos 43” (330 m away): do you know this procedure and whether it will change the views, light or traffic of the street?
- “Building works on Carrera de Capuchinos 33” (310 m away): how does the street closure affect access to the entrance and the garage?
Always ask
- Has the owners' association approved any levies, works or building inspections?
- Does the price take into account what is going to be built around?
Questions
How is it different from the free map?
The map shows the same projects, for free. The report organises them for a decision: impact level with its reasons, 24-month timeline, what could change, facts to negotiate and questions, in a document you can save as PDF.
Where does the data come from?
From public sources: the city works list, the planning office notices, the Catastro, city council press releases, heritage minutes and, for major projects with no official document, local press reports, which we mark as “Press”. Each project in the report links its source, with the date we checked it when we have it.
Is it up to date?
Last update: 12 Nov 2026. The city works list is checked daily and the other sources weekly.
What is missing?
Minor-works and single-house licences, which are not published openly, and major licences the city has not announced. So a report with no works does not guarantee there will be none.
What if there is nothing nearby?
Before paying we tell you for free the impact level and how many projects are within 500 m. If there are none, we say so and do not ask you to buy.
Can I get a refund?
As digital content delivered immediately, by paying you accept immediate delivery and waive the 14-day right of withdrawal. Even so, if the report is not generated or has an error that prevents you from using it, write to us within the following 14 days and we will refund the amount.
Who sells it and how do I contact you?
Málaga en obras is run by Ismael Cruces González. For questions, errors or refunds, write to [email protected]. We answer from that same address.
Is it an official document?
No. It is information for guidance, built from public sources. Before deciding, always check the source we link.
