Ibavi grows — 171 new apartments: A drop in the bucket?
Can New Social Housing in Mallorca Relieve the Rent Pressure?
Mallorca is adding 171 social housing units, but the impact on rents may remain limited.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
Is Mallorca really going to get enough new social housing to ease the pressure on rents?
The planned 171 additional apartments are a step forward, but they are unlikely to solve Mallorca’s housing shortage on their own. Demand remains much higher than supply, so the impact will depend on how quickly the units are delivered and who they are reserved for.
