The real estate market in Valencia continues to grow dynamically, and the latest data shows a clear acceleration in both prices and demand. According to Idealista's October report, the average price of a pre-owned apartment in the city exceeded 3,200 euros per square meter, reaching an all-time record. Compared to 2024, this represents an increase of 16–17%, making Valencia one of the fastest-rising markets in Spain. The highest increases are recorded in central districts such as L’Eixample and Ciutat Vella, where prices exceed even 4,500–4,800 euros per m².
However, the growing demand contrasts with a shrinking supply — as industry analyses indicate, the number of available apartments for sale is currently one of the lowest in years. Some reports estimate that the supply has dropped by 70–75% compared to 2019. Additionally, according to Tecnocasa data, pre-owned properties became 15.8% more expensive over the last 12 months, and the time needed to sell decreased to about 83 days.
At the same time, rental prices are rising — more than half of the apartments in Valencia now cost over 1,000 euros per month. Interestingly, mortgage payments are in many cases lower than rental costs, prompting more and more residents to buy a property, provided their creditworthiness allows it.
The premium market is also gaining importance. In the northern parts of the metropolitan area, such as Bétera or Torre en Conill, demand for luxury villas and single-family homes is growing — especially among foreign buyers. This segment is experiencing steady price growth and is expanding its offer mainly towards modern, energy-efficient developments.
Despite the general boom, experts point to serious challenges. The Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) reports that the availability of new apartments has decreased by more than 80% over the last six years, and the average household income is not keeping pace with rising prices. According to analyses, buying an apartment today requires allocating up to 45% of monthly income, which significantly exceeds European norms.
