A 31-year-old civil servant on Mallorca is forced to live in a motorhome (caravan) because of unaffordable housing. Despite a steady income, she cannot afford to rent an apartment on the island. She saves about 1000 euros per month, spending 300–400 euros on vehicle maintenance. She does not consider this lifestyle a permanent solution and is on the waiting list for social housing.
According to CBRE, 47% of properties on the island belong to the luxury segment, and foreign investors buy homes over 500,000 euros, making the market inaccessible for locals even with a regular income.
