Long-Term Renting in Mallorca
One of the main concerns of people seeking greener pastures elsewhere besides the location is the new place they will call home. Planning to live abroad is an exciting dream and could quickly be quenched if you cannot find a suitable place to rent while you work, study, looking to buy or transition to retirement.
A long-term lease generally refers to a lease that is longer than 12 months. Whereas short-term leases generally refer to a lease that is either month-to-month, anything up to six months, or reserved for holiday lets. The advantages of long-term renting will offer more stability with longer agreements, at standard rates for the location you rent in.
Try before you buy
Rentals in Mallorca are becoming increasingly popular as holiday lets. Oftentimes, properties for rent are also available for sale and prospective buyers can leap at the opportunity to try out living in the property first rather than taking the plunge into buying.
If you want to rent a property in Mallorca and enjoy all the wonderful blessings offered that only comes with living in this paradise, do not hesitate to take advantage of our services.

Valuable Advice for Tenants
In order to avoid negative long-term rental experiences, please peruse our recommendations thoroughly:
- Take your time to consider where you would like to live. As part of our services, we’ll learn what your lifestyle is and focus on neighbourhoods and properties that would best suit your needs.
- Visit different locations and regions to decide whether mountains, sea or city is what is essential to your lifestyle. The island may seem small, but it is much bigger than it appears. Ask around, you will find that many commuters rarely drive daily from the east or north to Palma or the southwest.
- Check the condition of the property’s installations and utilities (e.g. pool, water, heating, electricity), humidity– especially the interiors of older and unoccupied properties, the walls, noise, neighbours, etc.
- Ask Questions! Ask the agent or landlord everything you want to know before, during and/or after the viewing.
- Check for extra costs! Ask if there are any additional costs together with the latest bills/invoices and verify that community fees, rates and/or water are included in the lease.
- If you think the rental rate is too high, not a problem! It is possible to negotiate a rental price on some properties, however, it depends on your form of prepayment.
- Don’t get blinded by impulse! Once you’ve found the right property, emotions can easily impair logic, making you oblivious to obvious hurdles. Sleep on it and we can review your choice and provide relevant feedback pertaining to your chosen property to affirm your decision.

Advice for Landlords
✔ If you plan to lease your property in Spain, we recommend seeking legal advice from a lawyer/solicitor who specialises in leasing practices and checks the laws at your regional town hall.
✔ If the market compels you to sell your property, opt to lease your property long-term. You can maximise your returns by converting your property into a long-term rental (>12 months).
✔ Landlords who wish to lease their properties on a non-touristic or long-term basis are generally not required to apply for a special license.
✔ Properties, such as apartments may safely be rented out non-touristically, however, if you own an apartment that is part of a homeowner association “Comunidad de Propietarios”, check whether there are any regulations that restrict leasing your property.
✔ Take advantage of utilising our services to assist with finding trustworthy and reliable Tenants, preparing the proper rental contracts and managing the property for you.
