Just a Sigh of Relief? First Easing in the Rental Market — and Why That's Not Enough

Answer

Why is housing still so expensive in Mallorca even if rent growth is slowing?

A slower rise in rents does not solve the bigger issue: purchase prices, financing costs and limited supply are still making housing hard to access in Mallorca. People who do not already own property are often stuck between high rents and difficult buying conditions. That keeps the market tight even when monthly increases look smaller on paper.
