TENANT PROFILE

Tenant Profile in Villa de Vallecas

Rental demand in Villa de Vallecas is mainly driven by young families who find here the most affordable housing without straying too far from central Madrid.

Ensanche de Vallecas, with its supply of new housing and competitive prices, has attracted thousands of families in recent years who couldn't afford prices in other districts. Added to them are university students from the Complutense's Somosaguas campus and young people looking for their first independent home. The profile is mostly working- and middle-class, deeply rooted in the neighbourhood and with a tendency to renew leases stably. Proximity to Hospital 12 de Octubre and major employment centres in southern Madrid also attracts healthcare professionals and workers from companies in the area. For the landlord, this translates into very high occupancy and one of the most attractive yields in Madrid.

REVIEWS

Landlords who no longer have to worry

I bought my new-build flat with rental in mind and I wasn't wrong: it rented within days to a young family who couldn't find prices like that in other districts.

Casimiro Á.

Owner in Ensanche de Vallecas

The commuter rail connection to the centre was decisive for my tenant, who works in Madrid but preferred a more affordable rent. She's been there a year now without a single incident.

Visitación P.

Owner in Santa Eugenia

It's a neighbourhood with deep roots, and it shows in the tenants: I've had the same one since I started with Youhomey, and he has no intention of leaving.
