Is the Spanish property market set to heat up in 2019?

Developers are active again

Taylor Wimpey Espana has six new launches planned just in the first half of 2019.

Although the Spanish property market has been in the process of recovery for some time now, much of its progress has been a case of recovering old ground and, essentially, getting back to normality, rather than fresh growth.

Delivering that superb customer experience is part of what has enabled Taylor Wimpey España to thrive in Spain for so many years

Together with its operations in Mallorca, the expert builder is launching six schemes in the first half of 2019. It has also just launched two superb new show homes, designed to enable visitors to feel what it would be like to own a second home in Spain.

Owning a dream holiday home in Mallorca just got a whole lot easier for Doncaster residents

When is the best time to buy a house? Expert reveals why you should buy NOW

Taylor Wimpey Espana said: “When it comes to buying an overseas property in sunny locations such as Spain, Christmas is a good time to buy.

“With fewer tourists around than in the summer months, those purchasing homes can enjoy more attention from local agents. There are also weather-related benefits, with house-hunting trips in the sunshine opening up the possibility of playing golf, eating lunch al fresco and even spending time on the beach.”

Taylor Wimpey España will Launch 6 New Developments in H1 2019

Taylor Wimpey is going to continue betting on second homes in Spain. The British property developer is going to launch six new developments in the country during the first half of 2019. The projects will contain 330 homes in total and will be located in three main areas: the Balearic Islands, the Costa del Sol and the Costa Blanca.

Sun, sea and great weather: good value holiday home options for golfers on the Costa del Sol

British buyers have an ongoing love affair with the Costa del Sol.

Taylor Wimpey Spain is selling Horizon Apartments, handsome new-build homes overlooking the golf course at La Cala, from £250,000 for two-bedroom flats and £297,000 for three-bedroom flats.

Southern Europe’s largest golf resort is La Cala, established nearly 30 years ago near Mijas, just 25 minutes from Malaga.

The resort is five miles inland with about 500 houses and plans for another 500 but even when fully built it will only have a maximum density of 12 per cent.

Homes are built in clusters across the hilly resort and share good, established facilities of spa, gyms, indoor and outdoor pools and restaurants, with the golf academy and three courses taking centre stage.

Most owners are keen golfers and a third are full-time residents.

It’s all about the prime market in the south of Spain

Taylor Wimpey España’s focus is on properties costing between €250,000 and €300,000 (£217,000 and £260,000), which equates to a new two-bedroom apartment in Estepona or Mijas, where land is available to develop. Mijas is a golf and beach destination 20 minutes from Marbella and Malaga.

British love affair with the Costa del Sol is a long-standing one. Main tourist magnets — Marbella, Torremolinos, and Puerto Banús offer a quick fix of sun-soaked escapism easily accessed via dozens of daily flights to Malaga.

The costa continues to draw home-hunters, although Brexit uncertainty has hit the lower end of the market. “Brexit is a big issue for developers,” says Marc Pritchard, the sales and marketing director at Taylor Wimpey España, a developer. “Last year was great for the UK market, but demand has dropped off.”

Would you buy a Spanish new build home?

How developers are trying to put past problems to rest and tempt British buyers again.

A combination of sun, sea, and golf has always drawn Britons to consider Spain’s Costa del Sol as a location to buy an overseas property.

Developer Taylor Wimpey de España is one of the developers increasing the number of homes that it’s building in the Costa del Sol.

A Holiday Home For All Seasons

Long, lazy summer days on the beach in Spain have prompted many to think about buying a second home in Iberia. Easily accessible from the UK and enjoying far better weather, Spain is a popular choice for Brits looking to own a slice of the sunshine overseas. Taylor Wimpey España takes into account when looking at where to build their properties. Proximity to golf clubs with spa facilities, restaurants that serve local crowds year-round, playparks and shops are all considered as part of the process. “Buying a holiday home that can be used in every season is about looking at the whole package. Buying somewhere that’s booming in the summer, then spending the Christmas holidays there – and trying to pull together festive feasts from a minimally stocked local store – doesn’t always make for the treasured memories that people are looking for.”

GUEST POSTCARD FROM MALAGA – SPAIN’S NEWEST CULTURAL HOTSPOT

Taylor Wimpey Spain wanted to share a few insights on why Malaga is being flagged as Spain’s most exciting cultural hotspot

Spain’s sixth largest city, Malaga has plenty to offer those who visit. Most who come here are firmly focused on Malaga’s beaches, which are simply beautiful, the area’s spectacular golf courses or it’s abundant nautical and equine pursuits. However, Malaga also has plenty more to offer, with a host of cultural attractions. It seems that visitors are now getting wise to that fact and spending more time taking in some culture in Malaga, as well as working on their tans.

Cultural tourism is on the increase across Spain. According to Weekenddesk, visitor numbers to cultural attractions this summer rose by 23% compared to 2017. Tourists have spent the summer months delighting in the country’s museums, galleries, and theatres. In Malaga, they have particularly enjoyed the Centre for Contemporary Art, Nerja Caves and the Picasso Museum (Andalucia’s most successful gallery).

Key-ready holiday homes in time for Christmas – Taylor Wimpey España

Leading Spanish home builder Taylor Wimpey España, is offering buyers the chance to purchase a brand new holiday home. With new prices for homes in Alicante, Mallorca and Marbella, the trusted house builder has key-ready properties and a simple purchase process that takes both the worry and the hassle out of buying overseas.

In terms of the local areas in which it builds, Taylor Wimpey España opts for premium sites that enjoy easy access to beaches, golf courses or both. At present, the company is offering brand new, key-ready homes in Mallorca, Marbella and Alicante. “Buying a home in another country can be a daunting prospect, which is why so many buyers opt to buy through an established and well-regarded company. They like the certainty of knowing that they will be buying a high quality home that’s been developed in a popular local area. We work with each of our buyers to ensure that the purchase process is as smooth and efficient as possible – buying a holiday home should be a joyous experience, not a fretful one.”

Buyers who have already purchased second homes in Alicante have therefore had the chance to grow their capital, as well as to enjoy sun-kissed holidays whenever they choose.
Arenal Dream in Alicante has just two key-ready homes left available, priced from €285,000 plus VAT.

The frontline development boasts direct access to Paraiso beach, with furniture included in the price for those purchasing townhouses.
Over on Mallorca, second home buyers who fancy spending Christmas at the beach can pick up homes at Cala Murada from the new price of €379,000 plus VAT.

Overseas Property & the Countdown to Brexit

This tallies with overseas property businesses reporting soaring interest from Britons. “Over the last year we have seen reservations of our Spanish properties by British buyers shoot up by 77 per cent,” Marc Pritchard, of Taylor Wimpey España, said this summer. “In the Costa del Sol we’ve witnessed a 100 per cent increase in reservations. It certainly seems that Brexit has not dampened British buyers’ appetite for holiday homes, at least not in Spain. If anything, the decision to leave the EU has pushed many into hurrying to purchase a home overseas before the UK actually leaves the EU.”

It’s a similar story in France, where inquiries continue to fl ow into the largest Anglo-French estate agency. “We saw an immediate drop in inquiries immediately after the [Brexit] vote in June 2016,” Trevor Leggett, of Leggett Immobilier, said. “However, this didn’t last long and in the subsequent months, it became evident that there was a Brexit backlash taking place. Sales increased and those buying increased their budgets. The figure that has dropped is the number of British homeowners moving back to the UK.” If the prospect of Brexit has fuelled a desire to move, or to buy an overseas property, here are some useful pointers – because nothing about the purchase process has changed – yet. Anyone in receipt of a UK state pension should request an S1 (formerly E121 form) from the overseas healthcare team at the Department for Work and Pensions before leaving the UK.

Luxury spas, yoga and clean breathing: where to buy a holiday home that helps heal your soul

CLEAN BREATHING

Who needs fancy spas when you have fresh air? Clean breathing is one of the latest health trends, according to the Global Wellness Summit, and we’re now seeking out lung-cleansing destinations where we can practise deep breathing while immersed in greenery.

A mountain retreat is the obvious choice, with luxurious spas often part of the package. But a surprising alternative is the Costa del Sol: Málaga’s air is among the cleanest in Spain and the nation’s life expectancy is among the best in the world.

At Botanic in the hills of Benahavis, near Marbella, eco-friendly apartments start from €365,000 with Taylor Wimpey Spain. They are set in tropical gardens whose purple orchid trees and drago palms help purify the air and aid residents’ well-being.

Taylor Wimpey España “We design our homes to appeal to residents of all ages, from families with young children to retirees living alone or as couples.

Homes fit for royalty as new routes launch to Puerto Banus

Built in 1970 by local property developer José Banús, the marina and upscale shopping complex of Puerto Banus is one of the glitziest destinations on Spain’s Costa del Sol. Superyachts and high end cars cruise through the area each summer, inspiring varying degrees of envy in those who view them. Interestingly, despite its luxury image, Puerto Banus doesn’t have to cost the earth, either as a holiday destination or as a location for a second home.

Brexit boltholes: where and how to find a solid investment in Europe

SPAIN
Tourist numbers in Spain hit almost 82m last year, making it the world’s second most visited country (after France). And the best Spanish holiday lets are seeing 100% occupancy in high season, according to the Property Finders. “It’s all about the weak pound,” says the buying agency’s founder, Barbara Wood. “Things could change in sterling’s favour if there is renewed eurozone instability, which most analysts consider a cast-iron certainty some time soon.”

The housebuilder Taylor Wimpey España says Britons now constitute 35% of its market on the Costa del Sol, compared with 50% before Brexit — but they are spending more than before. “Most now have budgets of €450,000 or more, which is our upper end,” says its managing director, Javier Ballester.

The firm is launching projects in Ibiza, as well as in Moraira and Javea, on the Costa Blanca, and Marbella and La Cala, on the Costa del Sol. Beachfront apartments in La Vila Paradis, in the Costa Blanca town of Villajoyosa, start at €269,000 (taylorwimpeyspain.com).

Why developers are banking on Spain’s prime appeal

Taylor Wimpey España has seen buyer budgets’ rise over the past 18 to 24 months by an average of 10 per cent. Today a Taylor Wimpey España home in Spain will cost on average (£350,000).

According to Taylor Wimpey España, which has been selling homes in Spain for almost 60 years, the rise is primarily accounted for by the sale of properties within more luxurious (and hence expensive) new developments to affluent overseas buyers.
