Short answer: in San Javier, a typical 80 m² flat has an average appraisal value of about €156,200 (2T 2026, 1,953 €/m²) and rents for about €476 a month (2024 median, 5.95 €/m²). The gross yield is 4.9% with 2024 price and rent, and 3.7% with the 2T 2026 price. Buying it with an 80% mortgage would take about €44,989 in savings.
