Short answer

Why it matters when investing in Barcelona
The ownership structure determines authority, reporting, cash flows and partner exits. It should be designed before acquisition, with separate tax and legal review. In Barcelona, the same price per square metre can conceal very different planning status, common-element condition, leases and approvals. Every metric therefore needs an address, date, source and list of exclusions.
What to calculate
| Indicator | Question |
|---|---|
| 1 | budget: plan, actual and forecast at completion |
| 2 | programme, critical path and variance |
| 3 | risk register and pending decisions |
