This episode examines Spain’s housing emergency, where record-high prices clash with 3.8 million vacant homes. We explore why most empty properties are in low-demand rural areas while major cities face shortages, and how legal uncertainty, uninhabitable conditions, and weak enforcement of the 2023 Housing Law are worsening the crisis.
