Efforts to expand protected housing in the Barcelona metropolitan area have progressed through new developments and registration openings.

In late September 2026, GARBE Urban Real Estate Spain announced the acquisition of land in Santa Perpètua de Mogoda to build 50 publicly protected rental apartments. The project, covering approximately 4,300 square meters, is expected to be completed by summer 2028. Access to these units will be managed via official lists through the Generalitat due to regulated rental prices.

By October 2026, the Badalona City Council opened registration for 35 protected housing units, comprising 16 for sale and 19 for rent. These units, located in the Pau neighborhood, require applicants to meet specific residency, nationality, and economic criteria. Construction on the Badalona site reportedly began in October.
