Buying a house is a big investment. However, the expense depends very much on where the house is located. And, as such, the price per square metre can also vary a great deal in Spain. Accordingly, the real estate platform Idealista compiled a list of the 25 Spanish municipalities where house prices are the lowest.
El Carpio de Tajo, in the province of Toledo, is the cheapest municipality to buy a house in Spain. Here, house prices are the least expensive. The average price per square metre there is €304. Moreover, just €30,000 you can buy a terraced house with three bedrooms. El Carpio de Tajo is followed by the Palencian municipality of Barruelo de Santullán (€383 per square metre). Then three other municipalities in Castilla-La Mancha: Cebolla, in Toledo, with €401 per square metre and Almadén (€407) and Herencia (€413), in the province of Ciudad Real.
