The Shape of Mallorca's Housing Stock
How much of each municipality's residential building stock is actually on the market right now, when that stock was built, and where renovation activity has been concentrated over the last decade; read municipality by municipality below.
Penetration figures below are live from MallorcaData's cadastral feed (active listings vs. registered residential buildings from Catastro); municipalities not yet synced are omitted rather than shown as zero. Decade breakdowns and reform-activity counts are still illustrative placeholders: those aggregation endpoints don't exist upstream yet, so the shapes shown are representative, not measured.

Renovation activity, 2016–2025
Reform-record counts by municipality and year. Darker cells mark heavier renovation activity relative to the busiest area/year in this set.
Sources: the "Active Listings" figure above is deduplicated, the same trusted, single-property-per-listing count used on Explore the Island and Market Intelligence, not a raw per-source total (which runs much higher, since the same property is often posted on several portals and an agency's own site). "Residential Buildings" is from MallorcaData's cadastral feed. Market Penetration is calculated directly from those two figures (Active Listings ÷ Residential Buildings), so it always agrees with what's shown above it. Housing-age figures are still illustrative placeholders; reform-activity (the "Coming soon" panel above) has no upstream aggregation endpoint yet, so it's shown greyed out rather than presented as real data.
