The rental map where the Maricarmen decrees land: one in three contracts is temporary and the permanent stock collapses by 10%

The Spanish housing market is shifting towards temporary rentals, with one-third of new leases being short-term. Despite government measures, the supply of permanent rentals has decreased significantly, particularly in areas with price controls. Cities like San Sebastián and La Coruña have seen the highest increases in temporary rentals, while permanent rentals have dropped sharply in tensioned markets. The overall trend indicates a growing instability in the rental market, making it harder for those seeking long-term leases to find suitable options.
