Movement says admitting "crisis" in housing "is not enough"

Observador10 September 2026 at 15:09

The Porta a Porta movement denounces that the European Central Bank has been successively raising interest rates, which according to the movement is not sufficient to solve the housing crisis. The movement considers that merely admitting the existence of a housing crisis does not solve the problem.

The movement highlights the need to guarantee the right to affordable housing for all. This position arises in a context of growing difficulties in accessing home ownership or affordable housing.

The Porta a Porta alerts to the impact that interest rate increases have on citizens, especially those looking to buy a home or who already have mortgage loans. The movement argues that concrete measures are needed beyond the mere recognition of the crisis.

Castellón's homes fail on efficiency: more consumption and worse response to heat

Castellón has one of the least efficient residential stocks in Spain, with 96.83% of its homes classified between letters D and G, making it the second province with the worst results in the country, just behind Las Palmas (97.11%). This situation reflects a structural problem shared by much of Spain: the high proportion of homes built before rigorous energy efficiency standards came into force, while new construction, although much more efficient, still represents too small a share to transform the entire housing stock. The report "State of Energy Efficiency in Spain 2026", prepared by Accumin Intelligence for Tinsa based on energy certificates reported to the Ministry for the Ecological Transition, alerts to this situation.
