Spain Calls Snap General Election for November 29, 2026

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has announced a snap general election to be held on November 29, 2026. The decision, declared on Monday morning, comes after the parliament rejected crucial measures aimed at addressing the country's housing crisis, leading to significant political instability and the subsequent dissolution of the Cortes (Spanish parliament).

Housing policy is a central theme of this election, encompassing issues such as rental regulation, mortgage accessibility, and price controls. For those relocating to Spain or already residing there, a new government could potentially revise the conditions under which properties are rented in cities like Valencia, Madrid, or Barcelona. This includes potential shifts in rental costs, contract requirements, and tax implications for foreign residents.
