Housing rentals continue to soar in Castellón: prices grow almost double the national average

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General1 September 2026 at 11:07

Housing rental prices in Castellón continue to soar, with growth almost double the national average. This situation places the province at a moment of tension in the real estate market, despite prices still being noticeably lower than the average across all of Spain.

The distance between Castellón's prices and the national average is gradually narrowing. This convergence reflects the strong increase the province has been registering in recent times, bringing local values closer to national standards.

The main factors behind this phenomenon are the high demand from young people seeking to become independent and the scarce supply available in the market. This combination has driven both sales and rental prices in the region.

Although some areas are already showing signs of exhaustion of this trend, Castellón's market remains strong overall. The province continues to face significant challenges in terms of housing affordability for its young population.
