Why long-term rentals in Mallorca are dwindling — and what could help

Answer

Why are long-term rentals in Mallorca becoming harder to find?

A growing share of apartments is being offered as short-term or seasonal rentals because they often bring in more income for owners. In Mallorca, that leaves fewer homes available for people who want a year-round contract, especially in places like Palma. The result is a tighter market with fewer affordable options for residents.
