One of the trends that has attracted the most interest in recent years \u2014and which continues to generate debate in 2025\u2014 is the conversion of commercial premises into housing. This is an option that, if well planned, can be legal, profitable and sustainable, especially in established urban areas such as <strong>Alicante, Elche and Benidorm.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>After the pandemic, many premises located on ground floors or traditional shopping streets were left empty, while demand for housing continued to grow. This opened the door to a new type of investor and buyer: people looking for <strong>unique<\/strong>, more affordable and customisable spaces, as well as developers who see this conversion as a profitable alternative to the shortage of urban land.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-margin-top:20px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-center fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1372.8px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:25px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-1 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-font-size:25px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;font-size:1em;--fontSize:25;line-height:1.14;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/morainmobiliaria.es\/inmuebles\/\" class=\"awb-custom-text-color awb-custom-text-hover-color\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Is it still legal in 2025?<\/strong><\/a><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><p>Yes, but with some nuances.

on the case, but yes, it is still profitable in many areas of Alicante. The prices of ground floor premises are usually lower per square metre than those of homes, which allows for a good return on investment after the renovation. In neighbourhoods such as Carolinas, Altozano or San Blas (in Alicante city), or central areas of <strong>Elche and Santa Pola<\/strong>, you can find well-located premises to convert into loft-style homes or tourist studios.  <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, this formula attracts both creative investors looking for unique projects and young buyers who want to get onto the property ladder at a lower cost. The <strong>refurbishment of premises for rent<\/strong> has also gained momentum, especially in areas with high tourist or university demand.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:25px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-font-size:25px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;font-size:1em;--fontSize:25;line-height:1.14;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/morainmobiliaria.es\/inmuebles\/\" class=\"awb-custom-text-color awb-custom-text-hover-color\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>An opportunity with urban significance<\/strong><\/a><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>The conversion of premises is not only a question of profitability; it also contributes to revitalising neighbourhoods, reducing the number of empty premises and<strong> breathing new life into the urban fabric.<\/strong> In a province such as Alicante, where the climate, light and Mediterranean lifestyle invite you to enjoy open spaces, transforming a premises into a home can be much more than a real estate transaction: it can be a commitment to urban regeneration.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-7 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:25px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-image-element \" style=\"--awb-caption-title-font-family:var(--h2_typography-font-family);--awb-caption-title-font-weight:var(--h2_typography-font-weight);--awb-caption-title-font-style:var(--h2_typography-font-style);--awb-caption-title-size:var(--h2_typography-font-size);--awb-caption-title-transform:var(--h2_typography-text-transform);--awb-caption-title-line-height:var(--h2_typography-line-height);--awb-caption-title-letter-spacing:var(--h2_typography-letter-spacing);\"><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-3 hover-type-none\"><a class=\"fusion-no-lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/morainmobiliaria.es\/en\/properties\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"MI_blog3\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/morainmobiliaria.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/MI_blog3-e1762764579274.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-6968\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-8 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:25px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\" data-scroll-devices=\"small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p>At Mora Inmobiliaria, we believe in a modern approach to real estate, where adaptation and creativity are key to continued growth.
