Housing costs

Daily expenses

In addition to affordable rent, public transport in Valencia is low-cost, grocery prices are budget-friendly, and healthcare is high-quality yet inexpensive for residents.

Better value than Madrid or Barcelona

Compared to Madrid or Barcelona, your euro goes further in Valencia — without sacrificing comfort, lifestyle, or essential services. That’s why the city is increasingly popular among digital nomads and professionals relocating to Spain.

Booking a furnished apartment in Valencia for expats and digital nomads with Globexs is a simple and secure process. To protect both tenant and owner, we request basic documentation before confirming any booking.

Step 1 – Get in touch with our team

You can browse available apartments on our website or contact us directly for a personalized housing proposal. One of our rental agents will assist you based on your needs, travel dates, and budget.

Step 2 – Submit your documents

Depending on your situation (professional, freelancer, student, etc.), you’ll be asked to provide:

• A valid passport or national ID

• Your current residential address

• Proof of income (employment contract, payslips, or company letter)

• Freelancers or entrepreneurs: recent bank statements or proof of ongoing contracts

• Students/interns: enrollment certificate and financial guarantor details (if applicable)

We use this information to verify your identity and solvency, helping to ensure a transparent experience for all parties involved.

Step 3 – Sign the rental agreement and confirm payment

Once your documents are approved, you’ll receive a rental contract and proforma invoice. The booking is officially confirmed once the initial payment is received.

Step 4 – Prepare for check-in

Before arrival, the Globexs rental agent will coordinate with the apartment owner to arrange your check-in time. The Globexs agent monitors the whole process, and remains the contact person for both the owner and the tenant during the complete duration of the rental.

At Globexs, we offer a selection of furnished apartments in Valencia, some of which are pet-friendly.

If you’re planning to move with a dog or cat, simply let our team know during the inquiry stage, and we’ll help you find a rental where pets are welcome. We’ll also take into account factors like access to green spaces or nearby parks to ensure a good fit for you and your pet.

In some cases, owners may ask for a higher deposit or an additional cleaning fee when pets are involved. But don’t worry — our team will clearly communicate all conditions before booking.

At Globexs, we love pets and we understand how important it is to find a temporary home where every member of the family feels welcome — even the furry ones.

Yes, you can rent an apartment in Spain without a NIE, especially when booking through Globexs. A NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is required for official and long-term procedures in Spain — such as opening a bank account, signing an employment contract, or registering with the local authorities — but it is not mandatory for short- or mid-term rentals.

Renting without a NIE – how it works

Globexs specializes in mid-term furnished rentals for expats, remote workers, and international professionals, and we understand that many of our clients arrive in Spain before obtaining their NIE. That’s why our rental process is flexible and designed to remove unnecessary bureaucracy.

• You can rent with just a passport or national ID

• No Spanish residency or NIE required for Globexs contracts

• Payment can be made via international bank transfer or card

• Our rental agreements are legally valid and compliant with Spanish regulations

Need help with documentation?

Legal immigration consultancy.

Our experienced immigration lawyers can assist you with NIE applications and any other legal documentation related to your stay in Spain — including residence registration, visa support, or tax questions.

If you’re looking to rent an apartment in Valencia for 1 month, traditional agencies often won’t help — they prefer long-term contracts. On the other hand, vacation platforms may be overpriced, restrictive, or lack legal clarity for stays beyond a few days.

Globexs fills the gap with legal, flexible rental agreements written in English and Spanish. Every apartment is fully equipped: furniture, fast Wi-Fi, kitchenware, washing machine, and utilities included. No hidden fees. No tourist traps.

We help expats, digital nomads, and remote workers find housing in top neighborhoods like Ruzafa, El Carmen, and El Cabanyal — close to coworking spaces, local cafes, and public transport.

Globexs also offers unique Flex Living solutions, including co-living spaces and serviced apartments, ideal for those who want freedom, community, and comfort.

Why is empadronamiento not possible with Globexs rentals?

Empadronamiento is typically reserved for long-term or permanent housing, while Globexs specializes in mid-term rentals for expats, remote workers, and digital nomads. Our properties are designed for flexible, temporary stays — not for official residence registration.

Summary

• Empadronamiento is not allowed in any Globexs apartment.

• Our rentals are strictly for temporary accommodation.

• If you require address registration, our legal team can help you explore your options.

At Globexs, the preferred payment method is monthly bank transfer. We issue clear invoices and accept payments from both Spanish and international accounts.

In addition to bank transfers, tenants may also pay via credit card (online or at our office) or PayPal. Cash payments are accepted only in person and up to a limit of €1000.

For corporate clients, we provide professional support with company invoicing and scheduled payment processing.

Please note: Any transaction fees or commissions from PayPal, banks, or card providers must be covered by the tenant. Globexs must receive the full invoiced amount without deductions.

Our payment system is transparent, reliable, and internationally friendly, ensuring a smooth experience for both tenants and owners.
