However, Josep Sintes has dedicated a good part of recent years to studying the phenomenon of the excessive increase in real estate prices, in which he currently works.

Three years ago, the Catalan government gifted the former agricultural chambers to the three agricultural organizations and some local councils. Now, three years later, these old buildings are following a mixed path. UPA-AIA has just sold the house that was once owned by Montuïri. Unió de Pagesos, after an internal debate, will transfer the Sant Joan agricultural chamber to Ibavi, from which two or three social housing units could be created. Finally, Asaja has stated that it intends to maintain ownership of the Sencelles agricultural chamber and under no circumstances sell it.
