Analysis
Annual trend in housing prices
January 22, 2026

2025–2026 market overview
The Spanish housing market continues to show steady growth in prime locations, driven by international demand and limited supply. Madrid, Barcelona, and the Malaga region are at the center of investor interest.
Key cities
- Barcelona: Limited new supply, strong demand in the premium segment.
- Marbella: High liquidity in the luxury villa segment with a strong international buyer profile.
- Valencia: Affordable price per square meter and rising rental yield potential.
- Alicante: Preferred by retirement investors due to lower cost of living.
Instead of short-term speculation, evaluating location, rental yield, and resale potential together offers a more sustainable strategy.
