How to rent a property in Spain, via an Estate Agent, an agent who specializes in overseas property, or if renting a property by owner.
Here are some things to consider when renting a property in Spain:
Finding a home, apartment or villa to rent.
Owners or agent can advertise their properties in locally, or on "for rent websites", especially international property listing sites like Idealista, Fotocasa, and Pisos.com that provide rental options. By advertising locally, nationally, and internationally the owner or agent of the property or properties will increase their opportunities.
Contact local real estate agencies, or "inmobiliarias" if you wish to, or look for properties on social media.
As a foreigner, you'll need to provide a passport or a NIE (foreigners' identification number). You'll also need proof of income and a bank account in Spain.
Understand the rental contract, and use a local rental agency or estate agent to assist.
