Editorial: El País

• Spain is facing a new housing crisis that affects the economy and various layers of the population.
• The current crisis is socially corrosive due to the globalized economy that drives up housing prices.
• The housing deficit and massive investment in the real estate sector are causing daily price increases.
• Tourism and vacation rentals put additional pressure on the Spanish real estate market.
• Housing prices in Spain have already surpassed the peaks of the 2007 real estate bubble, increasing residential insecurity.
• Renting has become a factor of impoverishment for low and middle incomes in Spain.
• It is urgent for different administrations to cooperate in the construction of social housing, preferably for rental.
