Spain 🇪🇸

Have you always wanted to live and work in Spain? You're not alone! Spain is a popular destination for expats from various countries. This naturally also affects the real estate market. When we look at this, we see that prices vary greatly by region. In major cities like Madrid and Barcelona, the demand for housing is much higher, which also affects the prices in these cities. For example, you can expect to pay an average of 450 euros for a room in Barcelona and 900 euros for an apartment. When looking for accommodation in Spain, it's handy to consult websites like Idealista, Spotahome, or HousingAnywhere.
