Mallorca certainly has good cause to protect its natural environment. As well as having a social and moral responsibility to do so, the positive impact to the island’s tourism of maintaining pristine waters should not be underestimated. Mallorca has been a popular mass tourism destination since the 1950s, as Taylor Wimpey España’s observes: « Mallorca has that signature combination of sun, sea and sand that makes it the ideal holiday destination.

Spain has enjoyed a record-breaking summer, with some 54.4 million foreign visits in the first nine months of 2015, up 3.8% on the year before, according to the Industry, Energy and Tourism Ministry. But now that the summer season is at an end and the holidaymakers are back at work in their home countries, has Spain accepted that the rush of visitors is over for another year?

Sales and Marketing Director of leading Spanish homebuilder Taylor Wimpey Espana, comments, “Spain is a great destination for shopping, whether it’s in the run-up to Christmas or at any other time of year. In the south of the country, Alicante is a particularly attractive destination when it comes to high-end clothes and luxury items like watches and jewellery. There’s a wide variety of choice, from huge shopping malls to tiny boutique stores.”

The Costa Blanca is one of Spain’s most popular coastal areas thanks to its delightful blend of white sandy beaches, sunshine and delicious local food. With the New Year rapidly approaching, leading Spanish homebuilder Taylor Wimpey Espana has revealed its predictions for the Costa Blanca for 2016.

“2016 is looking like it could be a bumper year for the Costa Blanca,” comments Marc Pritchard, Taylor Wimpey Espana’s Sales and Marketing Director. “We’re expecting the area to benefit from Spain’s increasing visitor numbers and also from local initiatives like the attention being paid to golf tourism to really give tourist numbers a boost.”

For second home owners from countries such as the UK, better weather is often a draw and Spain is a perennially popular choice of location for such a purchase. Sales and Marketing Director of leading Spanish homebuilder Taylor Wimpey España, comments,

“UK buyers have a long-term love of Spain when it comes to second home ownership. The beauty of areas like the Costa Blanca, with its seemingly endless stretches of white sand and glorious sunshine, exerts a charm that gets under the skin. Buying a second home there represents a significant shift in lifestyle – it’s about enjoying more of what Europe, and life, has to offer.”

Buying a second home can also be a shrewd financial move, particularly in times of record low interest rates. When buying overseas, it’s always a good idea to purchase a home directly from a reputable developer with a strong track record. Doing so means you know what you are buying into in terms of quality, which is particularly important when purchasing a home in another country.

British buyers have been too busy in their domestic property market in the past but now are setting their sights on other countries, especially in Europe, Vanya Damyanova reports

Who is buying?

Everyone agrees demand is high and the markets are busy but who are the buyers? Are Brits flocking to other European markets just to secure a nice buy-to-let return, are they looking for a second home for the holidays or for a quiet retirement nest?

Taylor Wimpey España says: “We find that the majority of our buyers are families looking to holiday together or retired people.”

Spain has enjoyed a record-breaking summer, with some 54.4 million foreign visits in the first nine months of 2015, up 3.8 per cent on the year before, according to the Industry, Energy and Tourism Ministry.

Even with the summer season over, though, the value of Christmas shopping in luring customers from overseas has certainly not been lost on the Iberian country, as Deputy Prime Minister Soraya Saenz de Santamaria explains:

Sales and Marketing Director of homebuilder Taylor Wimpey España, which has launched homes near the retail hub of Alicante, comments: « Spain is a great destination for shopping, whether it’s in the run-up to Christmas or at any other time of year. In the south of the country, Alicante is a particularly attractive destination when it comes to high-end clothes and luxury items like watches and jewellery. There’s a wide variety of choice, from huge shopping malls to tiny boutique stores. »

http://www.themovechannel.com/

The Costa Blanca is one of Europe’s most heavily visited areas, extending 200 km along the Mediterranean coast. And it’s Alicante which is attracting the most attention from clients financing their purchases through Conti.

Even though Spain’s National Statistics Institute (INE) indicate prices are creeping up they are still some 30 per cent lower than before the property crash in 2008, which makes the region an excellent choice for retirees seeking a bargain re-sale or a brand new build.

Buyers can also expect higher quality new villas and apartments now from house builders like Taylor Wimpey Spain which is rolling out developments in prime locations, using quality materials, offering lots more space and choosing designs that won’t date.

Today’s buyers in Spain can also expect greater transparency, unlike previous owners, some of whom were stung by corrupt mayors, unscrupulous lawyers and illegal builds on agricultural land. Even so that does not mean you can avoid doing your due diligence.

Sales and Marketing Director of leading Spanish homebuilder Taylor Wimpey España, was one of those eagerly awaiting the Caminito del Rey’s reopening. He comments,
« There’s so much more to the Costa del Sol than one at first realises. It’s not just about sunshine and beaches – though of course it has both of those in abundance! There are also plenty of fascinating cultural and historical attractions here. So many in fact that visitors are often taken aback by how much there is to do. Several of our second home owners have seen exploring more of the area’s attractions as one of their key reasons for buying in the Costa del Sol. »
La Floresta Sur, in Elviria, close to Marbella, is an ideal base for getting to know the Costa del Sol. The spacious, open plan apartments are available from just €192,000 for two bedrooms, with owners able to enjoy the two large communal swimming pools and pretty, landscaped grounds. Large terraces with sweeping views are perfect for appreciating the area’s gorgeous scenery, from the scented forest of oaks and pines to the dazzling shimmer of the sea.

According to reports in The Independent newspaper, British property investors are taking full advantage of a weak euro in Spanish property markets in 2015, with one fifth of all foreign purchases in the country being snapped up by savvy buyers capitalising on the significantly increased purchasing power of the pound.

New figures published by the Spanish land registry show that Britons, more than any other nationality are taking advantage of a combination of favourable economic factors. In the last 12 months, the euro has fallen from around 80p to the pound to just over 70p, making holiday homes in the Spanish Costas more appealing to British buyers.

Slow price growth in Spain, coupled with rapidly rising property prices in the UK – in some instances by more than 10% a year – mean that Spanish property is making less of a dent in Britons’ wallets. In a report published by the Colegio de Registradores, 19.8% of all property bought by non- Spanish buyers in the first six months of 2015 went to UK buyers. German and other northern Europeans are stymied by the weak euro, while buyers from Russia and China have reduced activity in Spain’s property markets after being hit by sanctions or weakening domestic economies.

As many as 750,000 Britons live in Spain for at least part of the year. « The British market is by far the most important, » said Marc Pritchard, the Majorca-based sales and marketing director of Taylor Wimpey España, which develops homes in popular coastal areas. « There are several factors at play but people are starting to realise that after years of the Spanish housing market being depressed, it is beginning to pick up. »

https://www.propertyshowrooms.com/

For much of the Noughties, Spain experienced strong economic prosperity and the housing market flourished, with Brits migrating to the country in their droves. But the Spanish property market has gone through a turbulent period in recent years, mirroring the state of the Spanish economy, with prices having plummeted nationwide due to the economic downturn and a chronic oversupply of properties caused by excessive housebuilding, presenting Britons with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase property in Spain at rock-bottom prices.

However, with market conditions now improving as the country embarks on the long road to recovery, and with Sterling also performing well versus the Euro, now really is an ideal time to negotiate a bargain-basement Spanish property purchase. That’ll explain why the sale of Spanish homes to international purchasers is rapidly increasing, according to the Spanish National Statistics Institute (INE), as a growing number of buyers flock back to Spain for real estate with a view to snapping up the best value homes Spain has seen for than a decade.

Marc Pritchard, sales and marketing director for leading Spanish housebuilder, Taylor Wimpey España, comments: “More buyers are taking advantage of favourable exchange rates and reduced Spanish house prices to purchase their dream second home abroad.”

Moreover, for the first time in several years, domestic demand in Spain is also beginning to gather pace.

“We are very confident in the Spanish market going forward and are moving ahead with the development of a number of our Spanish sites,” adds Javier Ballester, also of Taylor Wimpey España.

Organised trip like these are a significant investment in money and time for the agent. So today, many agents will have a long list of questions before they will start booking your flights, designed to ascertain if you are really ready to buy.

Julian Walker at Spot Blue in Turkey feels that is only fair: “we are committing a lot of time and resources, so it seems reasonable to expect that people are upfront about where they are in the buying journey. Are they in a position to buy? Is the decision-maker going to be there? If the clients are serious we would certainly be willing to offer an inspection trip.”

Taylor Wimpey España take a similar approach, at £149 for one person and £169 for a couple, but only after ensuring that the buyers are ready.

“Most of our clients do plenty of homework before they get to us,” says Sales and Marketing Director Marc Pritchard, “normally via the internet and through contacting us, some do buy without visiting the site at all. But this generally works when the client knows the area quite well and knows what to expect. Inspection trips are there if buyers need them.”

Britons are buying a fifth of all Spanish property sold to foreigners, as moribund prices and a strong pound make holiday homes in the sun more appealing.

According to new figures released by the Spanish land registry, Britons, more than any other nationality, are taking advantage of a combination of favourable economic factors. The euro has fallen from about 80p to the pound, to a little over 70p in 12 months, making homes in popular areas such as the Costa del Sol and the Costa Blanca cheaper to buy.

As many as 750,000 Britons live in Spain for at least part of the year. “The British market is by far the most important,” said the Majorca-based sales and marketing director of Taylor Wimpey España, which develops homes in popular coastal areas. “There are several factors at play, but people are starting to realise that after years of the Spanish housing market being depressed, it is beginning to pick up.”

APARTMENT sales are soaring across Spain but rural holiday homes remain empty and unwanted

In the past 12 months, 80% of all properties sold in Spain were flats and apartments, up 28% on the previous year.

This has led leading property developer Taylor Wimpey to declare ‘The rural holiday villa’s days are numbered’.

“Buyers are much more discerning than they used to be when it comes to property type and location,” said Marc Pritchard, Sales & Marketing Director  at Taylor Wimpey España.

“Remote, isolated villas are falling out of favour as second homeowners’ demands have changed.”

The number of Britons buying abroad plunged after the financial crisis but the strong pound and relatively buoyant UK economy are making a home in the sun look more affordable.

Sky-high UK house prices have given many homeowners enough spare equity to fund an overseas purchase, while mortgage finance is cheap.

Clare Nessling, director at overseas mortgage specialists Conti, says: “Spain remains top of the list for British buyers, accounting for roughly half of our enquiries.”

The Costa Blanca is the number one destination for Spanish sunseekers, followed by the Costa del Sol, Balearic Islands, such as Majorca, and the Canaries.

Nessling adds: “The Spanish property market is on the up again after a tough few years and British investors are rediscovering their love for this beautiful country.”
