Overview

• Navarra has officially designated 21 municipalities, including Baztan and Pamplona, as tensioned housing zones, with rent caps and regulatory measures set to take effect in July.
• A Coruña submitted its finalized application, including a plan to expand public and protected housing stock to 7,236 units by 2035, to the Xunta de Galicia for review.
• Navarra's Plan de Medidas includes rent price limits, a registry of large landlords, and housing mapping to improve affordability and oversight.
• While A Coruña leads the effort in Galicia, other cities like Santiago, Lugo, Vigo, and Pontevedra have expressed interest but have not yet submitted formal applications.
• The Xunta de Galicia remains cautious, warning that rent caps may reduce rental supply by shifting properties to tourist rentals or sales.
