Law 11/2006 of 27 October, timely modification of the law on urban real estate leases since the General Council in its session of October 27th, 2006 has approved the following: law 11/2006 of 27 October, timely modification of the law on urban real estate leases preamble in article 50 of the law on urban real estate leases , 30 June 1999, States that are considered to be renting their homes for vacation are contracts that give the use of a home with furniture for a time not exceeding three months. If, as a result of extensions or renewals, the lease extends for a period in excess of three months, the lease loses its consideration of housing lease for vacation. According to article 51 of the same law, leases of houses for holidays are governed by the provisions set forth in the general law of the tourist accommodation.

Article 5 of the same Law considered the lease of housing which aims to a habitable building the main target of which is to serve as a permanent residence and usual tenant, your spouse, your children or other family members, in a period exceeding 183 days per calendar year.

Finally, article 49 of the law mentioned refers to leases of dwellings that do not serve as a regular and permanent residence, and that are governed by the rules set out in title II of the law for contracts of lease of urban properties in general. However, unlike the leases of houses for holidays and homes for permanent residence and in which relate respectively to articles 50 and 5 of the law, article 49, which refers to leases of dwellings that do not serve as usual and permanent residence, makes no mention of any term and, therefore, this type of lease is subject to the provisions of section 7.2 of the Act , which relate to the contract of lease of urban properties in general.

The lack of establishment of a period with regard to the leasing of housing that does not serve as a regular residence and permanent and generic referral to the rules of the law governing the contracts of lease of urban properties in general does not appear nor consistent with the generic regulation of lease of urban properties not adapted to current needs. The present law of specific amendment of the law of urban property leases have this dual purpose of giving more coherence to the current legal text and adapt it to current needs together.

Article only modifies the article 49 of the law of urban property leases, of 30 June 1999, which is worded as follows: Article 49 leases of dwellings that do not serve as usual and permanent residence are governed by the rules set out in title II of this law for contracts of lease of urban properties in general, with the exception of the period, which may not be less than three months.
