\"Q3

Q3 saw the cost of renting fall by 5.3%<\/p><\/div>\n

The price of rental property in Spain showed a decrease at the end of the third quarter, registering a -5.3% change.<\/strong> When compared to the same period of the previous year, prices increased by 7.4%.<\/p>\n

These changes bring the average cost of renting a home in Spain to 11.98 euros per square metre<\/strong>, per month.<\/p>\n

“The quarterly decrease is a common trend repeated in each of the third quarters of the last 18 years, which gives a slight respite to the rental price, which reached its peak last June 2024. However, the year-on-year rate continues to increase sharply, due to the great imbalance between supply and demand. September, the start of the season for many tenants, brings with it high prices, less available supply and poor condition of the homes, which become the biggest obstacles for applicants. This scenario has resulted in an extremely compact market, with limited turnover and a search process that is getting longer, making it increasingly difficult to access a rental home<\/em>,” explained Mar\u00eda Matos, Director of Studies and spokesperson for Fotocasa<\/a>.<\/p>\n
