Next came Andalusia (home to the Costa del Sol) with \u20ac975 million, and Catalonia (home to the Costa Brava), with \u20ac817 million.<\/p>\n<p>Amongst foreign buyers, those who were resident in Spain bought 25,602 homes, up 23% compared to the 20,839 purchased in the first six months of 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Non-residents buying second homes increased by 12% to 2,065.This increase in demand is reflected in a slow but steady recovery in enquiries for international mortgage funding, with a spokesman for UK based international mortgage brokers Offshoreonline.org commenting, \u201cWe have certainly seen an increase in enquiries for Spanish euro mortgages, with buyers coming both from the UK and abroad, especially the Far East.
