Many property owners often assume that interior renovation work, particularly when it doesn’t involve external alterations or an increase in the building’s volume, falls under simple maintenance. However, this common misconception can lead to significant legal complications. Every functional change to an immovable property, even if seemingly minor or internal, necessitates proper building authorization. Failing to understand and adhere to these regulations can inadvertently result in building violations and severe penalties. Therefore, comprehensive knowledge of current building codes and permit requirements is essential to prevent costly mistakes and ensure full compliance.
