Rent property in Spain

Yes, rentals in Spain are open to foreigners. The contract is signed directly with the owner or via an agency; long-term rentals usually require a passport and proof of income. No separate permit is required.

Costs depend on the city, district and format (short-term or long-term). The catalogue shows the minimum rate in the country and allows filtering by price and property type.

Short-term (daily, up to 30 days) has a higher daily rate, fully furnished with utilities included — great for holidays or business trips. Long-term (from one month) is cheaper per day, requires a deposit and a document package.

Usually a passport, proof of income (bank statement or employment contract) and payment details. Some owners ask for references from previous landlords.

A standard deposit is 1–2 months of rent, refundable on check-out if there is no damage. Agency fee is usually 50–100% of the monthly rate for long-term deals; when renting directly from the owner there is no fee.

Yes, many owners in Spain are ready to host a video tour and sign the contract online using an e-signature. Keys are handed over on arrival or via a trusted person. We support remote deals.

Renting does not grant a residence permit in Spain by itself, but a 6–12 month contract is often required for a tourist or long-stay visa, or when applying for a residence permit on other grounds (work, study, investment).

Typically areas with good transport links, proximity to the sea or historic centre, schools and international communities. Specific districts vary by city — the catalogue shows how listings are distributed by location.
