Answer

How do short-term rentals and investor purchases influence Mallorca's housing market?

Short-term rentals and investor activity can tighten the housing supply and push prices higher, especially in popular areas. This dynamic tends to increase pressure on locals seeking affordable homes and can fuel a cycle of rising costs and speculative demand. Stricter registration and transparency are often discussed as part of the solution.
