How it works

Find out whether you can open your business in a specific premises in Barcelona, Madrid or the Valencian Community — before you sign the lease.

  1. 1

    Paste the address or browse premises

    Type the address of a place you've seen or browse the published premises with their compatibility badge.

  2. 2

    Tell us what you want to open

    Bar, hair salon, coworking, shop… In your language. We map it to the official category the City Council needs.

  3. 3

    Clear verdict in seconds — free

    Compatible, with conditions, not compatible or maybe. With what it means for you, no jargon. And an honest heads-up on what to verify.

  4. 4

    A report for you or your technician

    If you're serious, unlock the report: exact address, advertiser contact, conditions, regulations and area. Your architect or engineer starts without repeating the research.

What we check

Planning feasibility

The neighbourhood's use plan and the general regulations (PGM) based on the plot's classification.

Active blockers

Licence suspensions on the plot that could prevent opening right now.

Surroundings

Neighbourhood demographics, nearby metro and area context.

Honesty, not a blind verdict

LocalCheck is a bridge tool, it doesn't replace the technician. The City Council only accepts reports signed by a qualified architect or engineer. We give you reliable, officially-sourced starting information so you decide with less uncertainty.
