Answer

Will rent controls in Capdepera actually make housing cheaper in Mallorca?

Rent controls can help, but they are not a quick fix. Their effect depends on accurate housing data, clear rules and enough staff to monitor compliance. Without coordination with the Balearic Government and the Consell, the impact in Capdepera may stay limited.
