Spain’s Housing Demand Hits Record, Supply Shrinks, Warns Unsain

Housing prices in Spain have been climbing steadily, while the supply of rental units has not kept pace with the growing demand. The influx of foreign investors has accelerated the depletion of available stock, pushing rents higher and limiting options for locals.

Iñaki Unsain argues that public housing initiatives are essential to rebalance the market and increase supply. He stresses that the current situation creates a major barrier for young and low‑income families seeking affordable accommodation.
