Answer

Why are rents in Mallorca so high right now?

Rents in Mallorca are being pushed up by a mix of limited long-term housing, strong demand, and the pressure from holiday rentals. When more homes are used for short stays or expected to earn higher returns, fewer properties remain available for local residents. At the same time, many people working on the island are on seasonal or modest wages, which makes the market harder to absorb.
