The Bank of Spain recently estimated that the Spanish economy contracted by just 0.1% in the second quarter of 2013, down from 0.5% in the previous quarter, raising hopes that a return to growth is imminent.
Indeed, according to leading Spanish property portal Kyero.com, the average asking price for homes across Spain has seen an increase of over €7,000 in the last year up from €245,200 last June to €252,500 in June 2013, indicating the return of confidence in the Spanish property market and good news for those looking to make that dream home in the sun a reality.
Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Manager for Taylor Wimpey España comments,
“In contrast to the economy, demand for second homes in Spain has definitely not waned. Properties in prime locations are readily available to potential buyers due to price corrections and, considering the unfaltering love for Spain as a holiday destination and retirement hotspot; Spanish property owners will still be able to obtain a solid return on a relatively low-cost investment.
“For anyone dubious about how the market is performing, here at Taylor Wimpey de España, the only developer building and selling new developments in Mallorca, we have experienced great success with a significant increase this year on the ‘Golden Isle’ in comparison with 2012. These positive results highlight that in spite of what is going on in Spain right now, buyer interest still remains high.”
