The Spanish Executive has delayed the publication of the second housing decree in the *Boletín Oficial del Estado* (BOE). This decree includes a significant change to rental agreements: automatic and indefinite extensions of contracts. If a landlord decides not to renew a rental contract, they will be required to compensate the tenant with the equivalent of 12 monthly payments. The delay indicates potential last-minute adjustments or negotiations regarding the legislation. This measure aims to address housing affordability concerns and offer greater security to tenants in Spain. The decree’s implementation has been a point of discussion between government officials and property owners, signaling potential impacts on the rental market. Further details are expected once the decree is officially published in the BOE.
