SPAIN has done an excellent job in turning the economy around creating a safe environment for property ownership, especially in Marbella.
According to the Spanish National Statistics Institute, Marbella is leading the rest of Spain’s property market, with property sales now reaching 12 per cent more than the peak sales of 2007.
This year also marks the third consecutive year of growth in property sales in Marbella, so what’s happening and why is Marbella leading the way, after all wealthy people can choose to buy their property anywhere in the world.
I know the quality of new build properties in Marbella are excellent, I build villas in Marbella which are on par with the very best in Europe and even resale properties have been checked over before offered for sale.
But you could buy a similar property in other parts of Spain, France or even Dubai, so why Marbella? I think the answer is you need more than just the value of your bricks and mortar.
You also need two of the most priceless commodities to complement your property investment and that is safety and quality of life.
Marbella excels in both and it’s this magical combination which makes Marbella ‘The’ place to live and own a property and that’s why property sales are so strong.
Marbella is truly cosmopolitan, local people are friendly and safety is especially important in today’s world, I have international female friends who in particular value feeling safe living and going out in Marbella.
