Real Estate Agency in Cádiz

How much does a property in Cádiz cost in 2026?

The sources don't agree, because they measure different things. It's best to read them like this:

• Asking price (idealista, September 2026): around 3,380 €/m², with an annual rise of 11.7 %. It is an all-time high for the city.
• Average price in the second quarter of 2026: around 3,100 €/m², 7 % more than a year earlier, according to the local press. Sales fell by 17.5 % year on year in the same period.
• Valuation (Tinsa, second quarter of 2026): around 2,810 €/m², 4.65 % more than a year earlier.

That gap between what is asked and what is valued is the key figure if you are buying with a mortgage. And if you are selling, it tells you that not every expensive listing ends up closing. With few transactions and prices at their peak, the room for negotiation depends a lot on the street, the floor and the lift.

Old town: Pópulo, Santa María, Mentidero and Plaza de España

This is the heart of the market. There are apartments in 19th-century buildings, courtyard houses with roof terraces and entire buildings, especially in El Pópulo and Santa María. Sale listings range from houses to renovate to a restored 18th-century palace house in the Plaza de España with new-build development.

• El Pópulo - Santa María: around 3,250 €/m² for sale and rent of about 14 €/m² (Fotocasa), the most expensive in the city to rent.
• Centro Histórico: around 3,040 €/m² with an annual rise of 13 % (Fotocasa).
• Mentidero - Teatro Falla - Alameda: rent of around 13 €/m². There are apartments of 70-100 m² at 3,300-3,800 €/m² on streets such as Cervantes or plaza de las Viudas.

What matters here: floor, lift (many buildings don't have one), the condition of the structure and the electrics, and whether the apartment is exterior-facing. A third floor without a lift and a second floor with one are not worth the same, even on the same street.

Playa Victoria, La Laguna and the Paseo Marítimo

This is the area with the highest average price: around 4,100 €/m² in the Paseo Marítimo - San José - La Laguna district (Fotocasa). The offer here is spacious apartment blocks, with a sea-facing living room and garage. Front-line listings in Playa Victoria come close to a million euros: October 2026 shows an apartment at 995,000 €, about 5,470 €/m².

There are also apartments of 90-130 m² at more moderate prices on inner streets such as San José. To sell or buy in this area, it is important to check the condition of the façades and community levies, because of exposure to salt air.

Outside the walls: Bahía Blanca, La Paz, Loreto and Puntales

Past Puertas de Tierra, the city changes: blocks from the 60s to the 80s, wider streets and more garages. It is where you can buy the most property for the same money, and where the purchase usually gets resolved for anyone needing a lift and a parking space.

• Astilleros - La Paz - Loreto - El Corte Inglés: rent of around 11 €/m² (Fotocasa), the lowest of the districts.
• Asdrúbal - Bahía Blanca: rent of around 12 €/m². There are three-bedroom apartments of 89 m² at around 310,000 €.
• Puntales - Zona Franca: rent of around 12 €/m².

It is a good option if you work in the city or the bay and don't need to be in the historic centre.

Renting in Cádiz: students, seasonal and long-term

The average rent is around 12 €/m² in October 2026 according to Fotocasa, almost flat compared with a year ago (-0.7 %). Idealista, which measures listings, puts it at 13 €/m² in July 2026, with an annual rise of 6.6 % and a peak of 13.3 €/m² in May. A two-bedroom apartment of 80 m² in the centre is around 900-1,000 € a month in listings.

It is a market with a strong presence of seasonal and student rentals (September to June), because the faculties are close to the old town. If you are thinking of investing, look carefully at which regime suits you and what current regulations say, as they change frequently. At Aurovas we explain it case by case.

Cádiz versus the Bay: San Fernando, Puerto Real, Chiclana and El Puerto

The city has little stock and high prices, and that pushes many buyers to look at the Bay. Local forecasts point to San Fernando and Puerto Real for families looking for larger homes with communal areas, and to Chiclana for a second home. El Puerto de Santa María, where our office is, is the other alternative.

If you are torn between living in Cádiz or elsewhere in the Bay, we can compare real options for you within your budget. The province as a whole stood at around 2,540 €/m² in September 2026, with an annual rise of 9.9 % (idealista): well below the city.
