The Minister of Transport, Raquel Sánchez, explained this Thursday that “it seems logical” to extend the rental limitation to 2% beyond June 30, when in principle the measure will decline. During her visit to the SIMA real estate fair, Sánchez recalled that the circumstances that led the Government to promote this measure are still maintained, which "is tremendously social and is benefiting many tenants."

In addition to the cap, the minister has ruled out that a real estate bubble is forming for now and has called on companies to promote public-private collaboration to promote access to housing.

On the other hand, Sánchez announced that in the next few days the autonomous communities will launch the calls for aid for the youth rental bonus and assured that the funds to finance this measure are already in the autonomous communities.

"It is the communities that have to launch the calls," said the minister.

However, Sánchez recalled that regardless of the date on which the calls are launched, this aid will be retroactive from last January 1. On the other hand, she was asked about the complaints of some real estate groups about the new Housing Law and its possible impact on legal certainty, something that the minister denied.

"The law does not go against anyone and does not attack the sector," defended the head of Housing, who added that there must be "a regulatory framework that offers legal certainty but also guarantees the right to decent housing." In addition, she assured that it is necessary "to have the private sector" and pointed out that public-private collaboration is a guarantee to prevent a new real estate bubble from occurring in Spain.
