Short answer: in Níjar, a typical 80 m² flat has an average appraisal value of about €106,300 (2T 2026, 1,329 €/m²) and rents for about €331 a month (2024 median, 4.14 €/m²). The gross yield is 4.2% with 2024 price and rent, and 3.7% with the 2T 2026 price. Buying it with an 80% mortgage would take about €30,250 in savings.
