Seville capital remains the most sought-after municipality in its province for renting housing, with an average price of €13.5/m², but Huelva tops the Andalusian ranking. Dos Hermanas also makes the list of the Andalusian municipalities with the highest rental pressure.
Idealista has published its rental demand report for June 2026, and the data confirms that Seville capital continues to be the most searched municipality in the province for renting a home. With an average price of €13.5/m² and a year-on-year increase of 6.7%, the capital of Seville ranks 43rd nationally. However, the leader in the whole of Andalusia is Huelva, which is positioned 19th at the state level.
Dos Hermanas, the second in the province in the ranking
The list of Andalusian municipalities with the highest rental demand compiled by the real estate portal includes Dos Hermanas in 44th place, immediately after Seville capital. The town of Bajo Guadalquivir records an average price of €10.3/m², with a year-on-year increase of 6.5%. This makes it the second most sought-after option in the province, ahead of other Andalusian capitals such as Almería or Cádiz.
The report reflects that demand is not concentrated solely in the capitals. Coastal towns such as Roquetas de Mar (32nd place, with €8.8/m²) or Torremolinos (56th place, with €17.7/m²) also appear among the most requested. In the case of the province of Seville, pressure remains in the capital and its metropolitan area, where rental prices continue to rise.
Huelva, the surprise of the Andalusian ranking
The capital of Huelva leads demand in Andalusia with an average price of €10/m², following a year-on-year increase of 8.7%. Despite not being the most expensive, its combination of affordable price and quality of life has made it the favourite destination for those seeking rentals in the community. It is followed by Jerez de la Frontera, which surpasses Cádiz capital and is positioned 27th, with €10.2/m² and a rise of 7.3%.
The national ranking is led by municipalities in Madrid and Barcelona, as well as Vitoria-Gasteiz. In Andalusia, Málaga capital occupies 36th place, with €16.5/m², while Marbella is the most expensive in the community, at €20.3/m². On the opposite side, Jaén is the cheapest capital, with €8.6/m².
What does this mean for the Sevillian tenant?
For the residents of the province of Seville, the report confirms that the upward trend shows no signs of slowing. The average rental price in Andalusia is €13.5/m², following a year-on-year increase of 6%, still below the national average (€15.3/m²). However, in Seville capital, the price now matches the regional average, which poses an additional burden for families. In Dos Hermanas, the more contained price (€10.3/m²) makes it an attractive alternative for those who cannot afford the capital.
The Idealista report also reveals that demand is shifting towards the outskirts of major cities, a phenomenon clearly observed in the metropolitan area of Seville. Towns like Mairena del Aljarafe or Bormujos do not appear in the top Andalusian list, but they are experiencing increasing pressure, as this newspaper has already indicated. The key is to find a balance between price and accessibility, something increasingly difficult in a tense market.
For those looking for rental apartments in the province of Seville, the data from Idealista can serve as a guide: the capital remains the most in-demand, but options like Dos Hermanas offer lower prices and good connections. However, competition is fierce and prices keep rising. As the saying goes, he who leans against a good tree finds good shade, but in the rental market, shade is becoming increasingly expensive.
