Housing License

What Has Changed and How MBM Company Ensures Project Compliance

The recent amendment to the Legal Framework for Urbanization and Building (RJUE), effective since 2024, has transformed one of the most critical stages in any construction project: the occupancy permit, commonly known as the housing license.

Under the new regulations, this document is no longer mandatory and has been replaced by a set of technical documents, including a liability statement signed by the project designer, a declaration from the construction director, and the property’s technical file. This change aims to streamline and accelerate construction and rehabilitation processes by transferring legal and technical responsibility to qualified professionals.

What does this mean for investors and developers?

Above all, it means the need for rigorous control and technical precision from the very beginning to the final delivery. The removal of the formal license does not reduce legal requirements — it merely shifts the responsibility of compliance to the project teams.

This is where MBM Company stands as your strategic partner.

As a specialised architectural firm and real estate investment consultancy, MBM Company offers comprehensive support through multidisciplinary teams that ensure:

• Full legal and technical compliance at every stage;

• Rigorous coordination across architecture, engineering, supervision, and construction;

• Preparation and submission of all documentation required under the new legal framework;

• Representation before municipal authorities when necessary;

• Mitigation of legal, tax, and operational risks.

Simplification does not mean less responsibility.

Mistakes during this new documentation phase can lead to serious consequences, such as registration issues, obstacles in notarisation, difficulties in transferring ownership, or even operational restrictions. MBM Company is structured to anticipate and prevent such risks, ensuring your investment is safeguarded — from asset selection to turnkey delivery.
