Payday 2026: Why Many Renters in Mallorca Have Reason to Be Afraid

Answer

Why are older rental contracts in Mallorca likely to rise so much?

Many of the contracts due to expire were signed in 2021, when pandemic conditions kept prices unusually low. That means the new rent may jump sharply simply because the old contract was based on a much lower market level. The increase can feel especially steep for tenants who have been paying below today’s prices for several years.
