Community administrator in Mijas
Mijas sits between Marbella and Fuengirola. It takes in Mijas Costa and La Cala. We look after communities here where many owners live outside Spain.
What the communities are like in Mijas
Mijas Costa has a very high share of second homes owned by British, Irish and Nordic owners. The communities are medium sized, few people come to the meetings, and proxy votes decide almost everything.
So in Mijas the part that matters most is non resident owners and proxy voting. It would not carry that weight in a city centre block. A comunidad here should not be sold a service built for somewhere else.
One local thing to check
[Fill in with one checked local fact: a local rule, a local charge, something the town hall requires, or a problem that keeps coming up here. Add a link to the Mijas town hall website.]

Questions about Mijas
Do you look after communities in Mijas?
Yes. Mijas is inside the area we cover, which runs from Manilva to Benalmadena. We work in both languages and use the same Standard in every community, whatever its size.
Does my administrator need an office in Mijas?
No, the law does not require it. In practice it matters less than how fast they reply and how good the paperwork is. What you should insist on is one named person who answers, and who can come to the building when needed.
Can we change administrator in the middle of the year?
Yes. Article 13.7 of the Horizontal Property Act gives the administrator a one year appointment, and the meeting can end it at any time. You do not have to wait for the year end, and you do not have to give a reason. Just plan the handover of the records.
