How much does the Certificate of Habitability cost in Barcelona?
The elements that come into play when calculating the total price that we must pay for the Certificate of Habitability for an apartment in Barcelona, are the following:
Architect fees
The Habitability Certificate is intended to prove that a home meets the necessary conditions so that it can be inhabited by people . For this, it will be necessary for a qualified architect to visit our home and make a technical report based on current regulations.
These are some of the elements that the architect will assess to verify that our home meets the minimum requirements for granting the certificate : surface area, height, accessibility, distribution of spaces, facilities, etc.
Although the price will vary depending on the fees charged by each architect, we could speak of a figure around 60 euros .

The technician will need to endorse the request for the certificate by his Professional College of the Architect. This visa usually has a price between 10 and 14 euros .
