It is — but you need to know where to look. Most of the major tourist hubs have gone up in price, but cheap real estate in Spain still exists in rural regions, smaller towns, or older buildings that need a bit of work. I recently helped a friend buy a small house in Jaén province — 3 bedrooms, €52K, and only needed light renovation. Inland villages, parts of Extremadura, and Castilla-La Mancha still have homes under €80K. You can also find budget-friendly apartments on the outskirts of cities like Murcia or Zaragoza. If you're not chasing beachfront or modern finishes, there's a surprising amount of affordable property out there.
