According to recent market data, the average asking price for residential property in Villajoyosa hit an all-time high of <strong>\u20ac3,824 per square meter<\/strong> in January 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This represents a staggering <strong>18.8% increase<\/strong> compared to just one year ago. To put this in perspective, while the national Spanish average is seeing a healthy growth of 5-7%, Villajoyosa is operating on a different level.

While Benidorm has higher volume, Villajoyosa currently offers higher capital appreciation rates. Benidorm is a mature market, whereas Villajoyosa is still in an &#8220;upward correction&#8221; phase, meaning there is more room for price growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Can_I_get_a_rental_license_in_Villajoyosa\"><\/span>2.

In 2026, the local town hall requires a &#8220;Compatibility Report&#8221; (Informe de Compatibilidad Urban\u00edstica).

This industry ensures the town has a stable, year-round economy that isn&#8217;t 100% dependent on tourism.
