What does the new temporary rental law of July 2025 say?
On July 1st, the reform affecting seasonal rentals in Spain comes into force. This new regulation aims to prevent temporary contracts from being used to circumvent long-term tenant rights.
-
Seasonal rentals are only allowed with real justification (work, studies, treatments, etc.). Contracts must clearly specify the cause and duration of temporary use
-
The tenant cannot establish their habitual residence in the property.
-
Penalties for improper use may result in the contract being considered indefinite.
-
Each property must be registered and have its unique identification number that must appear in the listing

Doubts between temporary or long-term rental? We help you decide
Seasonal rental is recommended when...
-
Your property is in areas with high rotation (e.g. near universities or companies with international mobility).
-
You can manage cleaning and tenant changes regularly.
-
You want to use the property between seasons (e.g. summer or winter).
Long-term rental is recommended when...
-
You seek stable income without interruptions.
-
You don't want to worry about constant management.
-
You prefer legal security and tax advantages.
-
You don't need to recover the property in the short term.
Taxation: long-term vs seasonal rental
Renting your property habitually can offer you up to 90% reduction in income tax, while temporary rental does not allow tax bonuses to be applied. The tax difference can be very significant.
Long-term rental taxation
Renting a property as habitual residence under long-term regime offers important tax advantages for landlords. In 2025, the new income tax regulation allows significant reductions to be applied on the net rental yield, provided certain requirements are met.
-
50%: general reduction if the rental is for habitual housing.
-
60%: if the property has been rehabilitated in the last 2 years.
-
70%: if the tenant is between 18 and 35 years old or the rental has social purposes, in a stressed area.
-
90%: if there is a new contract, in a stressed area, and you reduce the previous price by at least 5%.
Seasonal rental taxation
Temporary rental contracts do not allow income tax reductions to be applied as in the case of long-term rental. This type of contract is subject to less advantageous taxation and greater control by the Tax Office
-
0% reduction: you pay tax on 100% of net yield in your income tax.
-
Greater surveillance and inspections if there is frequent tenant rotation.
-
No tax benefits, even if the rental is for several months.
-
It is not considered the tenant's habitual residence, so it does not meet conditions for bonuses.

Questions about Zazume
What is considered temporary rental in Spain according to the 2025 law?
Temporary rental is that intended to cover specific and justified needs (work, studies, treatments...). With the law that comes into force on July 1st, 2025, it is mandatory to document that cause. At Zazume, we help you draft legal contracts updated to the new regulations.
What happens if I rent seasonally without justification?
The administration may consider the contract as long-term rental, applying mandatory extensions of up to 7 years. At Zazume we advise you to avoid legal errors and sign only valid contracts according to the real use of the property.
What is the difference between temporary rental and tourist rental?
Tourist rental is aimed at short stays for leisure or vacations and is usually advertised on platforms like Airbnb. Temporary rental is for months, but not vacational, and must be linked to a specific cause (work, studies...). At Zazume we work with seasonal and long-term rentals, we do not do tourist rental.
What are the advantages of long-term rental for the landlord?
You get stable income, less rotation and tax benefits (such as deduction of up to 90% in income tax if you meet the requirements). With Zazume, you can delegate management, ensure timely payment and forget about legal or administrative complications.
How much can I ask for my property in temporary rental?
It depends on location, time of year and demand. In general, the monthly price is higher than in long-term rental, but there is more rotation and costs. At Zazume we give you a free valuation with market prices and help you optimize profitability.
What type of rental is most profitable?
It depends on your property, your objectives and the tenant profile. Each case is different. Temporary rental can generate more gross income, but also more expenses and vacancy. Habitual rental is more stable and fiscally advantageous. Zazume offers you a free comparative calculator to help you decide with real data between seasonal rental or long-term rental.
