Basauri rents: the declared figures

The floor areas are round illustrative sizes used to show the arithmetic, not measurements of any particular flat.
A declared stressed rental market
Basauri has been declared a zona de mercado residencial tensionado by its comunidad autónoma, which is the trigger for the rent limits in the Housing Act: a new lease on a home that was let in the previous five years is generally held to the previous rent as updated, and a large holder is additionally held to the reference index. The declaration is made regionally and listed by the ministry, it runs for a fixed term and it can be extended, so check it is still current before relying on it. The declaring norm is named in the sources below.
The reference figures, in a market that prices by size alone
A quote above 10,97 €/m² needs a reason you can point at; one below 8,43 €/m² needs a survey.
8,43 €/m² to 10,97 €/m² is a very narrow spread: Basauri prices by square metre and rewards little else.

| Median | 9,65 €/m² |
| Upper quartile | 10,97 €/m² |
| Median monthly rent | 669,50 € |
| Median floor area | 68,93 m² |
