Spain Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Spain

Spain offers apartment investors a market shaped by regional variety, strong urban centres, and a long-established place in European lifestyle and travel flows. For buyers, that mix keeps the country relevant across both holding and rental strategies.

September 2026 brings the clearest signal yet: prices are still climbing faster than rents. The average apartment sale price stands at €259,000, up 1.6% month on month and 17.7% year on year, while the average m2 price reaches €2,850 after a 0.5% monthly rise and a 19.0% annual increase. Against that, the average rent price remains at €1,200, unchanged over the month and up 4.3% from a year earlier.

That gap matters for investors because it points to tighter economics even as values keep advancing. The current yield of 5.69% suggests income is still present, but the pace of price growth is doing much of the work in the market. In practical terms, September looks less like a cooling phase and more like a period where apartment pricing continues to re-rate while rental income moves at a slower speed.

For investment location pages, Spain therefore reads as a market where ownership costs have risen meaningfully over the past year, yet apartment income has not moved in step. That combination may not remove the case for investment, but it does sharpen the need to assess entry price carefully against the current yield profile.
