This measure puts an end to the extraordinary limitations on rent adjustments and mandatory lease extensions, returning the regulatory framework to the Urban Leasing Act (LAU). Below, we analyze the key points of this new scenario and the direct impact this decision will have on landlords and tenants over the coming months.  <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Texto&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;27px&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;30px||30px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; inline_fonts=&#8221;Abel&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<!-- divi:paragraph {\"align\":\"left\"} --><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The real estate market in Spain is facing a period of transformation following the recent decision by the Congress of Deputies. The repeal of the Royal Decree-Law that regulated various measures related to leases marks a turning point in the management of rental contracts for 2026. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: normal; font-family: inherit;\">This measure is not just a technical change, but a shift that directly impacts the legal certainty of both landlords and tenants. At Finques Segarra, we analyze what this change means for your specific situation and how we should adapt to this new legislative phase. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: normal; font-family: inherit;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!-- divi:paragraph {\"align\":\"left\"} --><\/p>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"7\">Impact of the <b data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"14\">Repeal of the 2026 Royal Decree on Rentals<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The news has sparked a surge of inquiries at<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/finquessegarra.com\/en\/us\/\"> our offices<\/a><\/span>. Understanding the true scope of this decision is essential for anyone who has a current lease or is considering renting out a property in the coming months. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first thing we must be clear about is that the regulations are once again governed entirely by <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conceptosjuridicos.com\/legislacion\/ley-arrendamientos-urbanos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Urban Lease Law (LAU)<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. This eliminates the exceptional measures and returns us to a management framework in which freedom of contract is once again the fundamental pillar of the agreement. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What does this mean in practice? The main consequence is that the extraordinary protective measures that had been put in place are no longer in effect. The extraordinary extension of lease agreements and the cap on annual rent increases are no longer enforceable.  <\/span> <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/divi:buttons -->[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|21px||0px|false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;27px&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||3px||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<!-- divi:paragraph {\"align\":\"left\"} --><\/p>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"13\">What happens to current rental agreements?<\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"14\">This is one of the most frequently asked questions: the repeal does not have retroactive effect.
