What renting in Getxo costs, on the record
2.604 declared leases sit behind it: enough to inform, small enough that one street can sit outside the range. Getxo rents at a reference of 11,34 €/m², high enough that a single square metre of difference in the contract is worth arguing about. No comparable earlier reference is published for this municipality, so no five-year change is shown.
Rents declared on income-tax returns for main-residence leases, not asking prices. They lag the market and exclude holiday lets.

The reference figures, in a market that prices by size alone
The band from 9,75 €/m² to 13,37 €/m² is where most signed contracts sit, whatever the portals show.
9,75 €/m² to 13,37 €/m² is a very narrow spread: Getxo prices by square metre and rewards little else.

| Median | 11,34 €/m² |
| Upper quartile | 13,37 €/m² |
