About Orihuela

Orihuela, in Alicante province, combines a historic inland city with access to the Costa Blanca, giving the area a broad appeal for buyers looking at apartments. Its setting links urban services, heritage, and coastal reach in a single market.

June 2026 brings the clearest signal: prices are still rising, but rental growth is moving faster. The average apartment sale price stands at €239,900, up 0.4% on the month and 9.3% over the year, while the average rent has reached €980, up 3.2% from May and 15.3% from a year earlier. That gap matters because it shows investor returns are being squeezed even as values continue to firm.

The average price per square metre is now €2,962, down 0.9% month on month but still 9.3% higher than in June 2025. That slight monthly easing does not change the broader picture: Orihuela’s apartment market remains on an upward annual trend, yet income growth is also climbing, making the balance between price appreciation and rental yield worth watching. The current yield of 5.18% reflects that tension clearly.
