Capdepera wants to curb rents — is the designation as a 'strained housing market' sufficient?

Answer

Could rent limits in Capdepera push tenants into neighbouring towns?

Yes, that is one possible side effect if measures are applied unevenly. If only one municipality tightens rent rules, landlords and investors may move pressure to nearby areas instead. That is why housing policy in Mallorca works better when neighbouring towns and the island authorities coordinate their approach.
