Moving to Valencia: Flex living & expert rental services | Globexs

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.

Yes, public transportation is easily accessible from most apartments offered by Globexs in Valencia. One of the key advantages of living in Valencia is its well-developed and reliable public transport system, which includes metro lines, bus routes, and trams.

Most of our mid-term rental properties are located within walking distance of metro stations, bus stops, or tram lines. This makes it easy for tenants to commute across the city, whether for work, study, or leisure, without the need for a car.

In addition to public transport, Valencia is one of the most bike-friendly cities in Spain. The city has an extensive network of dedicated cycling lanes, and bike-sharing systems like Valenbisi make it convenient and affordable to get around on two wheels.

Popular neighborhoods such as Ruzafa, El Cabanyal, and El Carmen offer excellent mobility and connectivity. From these areas, tenants have easy access to public transportation, supermarkets, coworking spaces, cafés, and essential public services.

Valencia is one of the most affordable major cities in Spain, making it a popular choice for expats, students, and remote workers looking for a high quality of life at a reasonable cost.

Housing costs

On average, a furnished mid-term rental in Valencia through Globexs costs between €700 and €2000 per month, depending on the size, location, and duration of the stay.

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

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.

• 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
