Rent in Hellín: what tenants actually declared
It is 16 % above the reference of five years earlier. The reference rent for a flat in Hellín is 3,54 €/m², at the bottom of the national range, where a difference of a few euros a month separates very different buildings. 780 declared leases stand behind it, a base thin enough that a few unusual contracts move it.
Rents declared on income-tax returns for main-residence leases, not asking prices. They lag the market and exclude holiday lets.
