A licence is permission to build, not a finished home: most are completed one to three years later, and some never are. A visado is the architects' association's approval of a works plan, which comes before the municipal licence; not every approved home is built. Ceuta and Melilla publish none.

Affordability

Figures for Spain: País Vasco has no reliable figures of its own.

At the average appraised value, a 90 m² home costs €279,207. With 10% down and a 30-year mortgage, the payment is €1,065 a month. Spain sets no cap on the payment; lenders must assess each borrower's solvency.
