Illegal letting in the Canaries
I first started posting on the inspections and “plan especial” being carried out by the Canarian Government against “illegal letting” in December 2010. Since then, a huge amount of information has been posted, and since it ranges over such a period of time, I thought it useful to contain it all within a single page. Below, in reverse chronological order, are all the posts I’ve made with regard to the situation as it has developed.
