What every buyer has in mind when looking for a property is the surface area. Many buyers are clear about the number of meters they want but many times they do not know if they are useful area or constructed area . Knowing the difference between the two will help you understand the appraisal or value of a property as well as the amount of the real estate tax (IBI). We will analyze the main differences between each type of surface and when you should pay attention to one or the other. Useful and constructed area Ministerial order ECO 805/2003 determines the difference between each of these categories. Useful The useful surface area is the meters delimited by the interior face of the walls . Additionally, spaces such as balconies, terraces, overhangs or patios are included in this category. To do this, they must be covered and only 50% counts. The built-in wardrobes fall within the useful surface. This means that those that do not cover the meters of useful surface are the partitions, columns, pillars and other elements that are inside the home but are not useful. In this way, the useful surface is that which can be walked on . Spaces of less than 1.5 meters do not count as usable surface area, nor do uncovered outdoor spaces.
Patios, terraces, balconies and clotheslines count as useful surface as long as they are covered with the exception of those that exceed 15% of the useful surface . In that case, the meters of these spaces are not included, even if they are covered. Within the real estate market these elements are valued, but they are not recorded as useful surface area. Built The built surface incorporates all the elements built within a useful surface such as UK Telemarketing Data partitions, galleries, ventilation ducts and installations . All structural elements (that is, built) are included, as well as pipes or ducts with a horizontal section greater than 100 cm2. Thus, the built surface always has a greater number of meters than the useful surface. The difference ranges between 15% and 25%. Built with common elements There is a third meaning that not many know. Properties in which spaces share with neighbors such as hallways or common areas must take into account the surface built with common elements . This measure is the one used by appraisers and the ones that are usually recorded in the cadastre in this type of property.
By adding to the constructed area the areas such as the portal, the lobby, the stairs, the counter room, the community rooms, the gym, the changing rooms, this measure increases the constructed area by up to 14%. Why is it important to know the difference between useful area and constructed area You must keep in mind that the cadastre records the meters of constructed area and common elements . These appear separately in the cadastral information, the same as the parking spaces or storage rooms. It is important that you take into account the number of meters of the surface that appear in the cadastre because it marks the participation coefficient of a home within buildings and urbanizations . The real estate tax ( IBI ) is calculated on the built surface that appears in the cadastre. Within the Property Registry, the three types of surface can be taken into consideration , and there may be deeds with one, two or three types of surface described. This happens, above all, in recently registered properties. Finally, it should be noted that, when advertising a property, it is advisable to describe the useful and built area.
