The popularity of continental Europe for Property Investment among UK buyers is long established, with many buyers seeking Holiday Homes and Buy-to-Let opportunities in holiday destinations relatively close to home.

Recent years have seen a significant boom in European Property Investment, particularly in certain parts of Spain, and according to figures released by the Office of National Statistics (ONS), this is set to continue into the foreseeable future.
With house prices in the UK having slowed to around 5%, marking a downturn in the market, a growing number of UK Property Investors are turning their attentions overseas, looking for new investment opportunities in foreign markets.
Even though property prices are currently cheaper in some emerging markets, Spain offers more security to the Investor as it is an economically and politically stable member of the European Union and has a track record for providing a reliable source of Investment Income.

The combination of low prices, healthy climate, accessibility and high financial profits make for a compelling proposition.

Demand for property in Spain remains high as prices have jumped dramatically by some 150% since 1997, however, they are still significantly cheaper than the UK where property values are approaching an average of £190,000. Low Interest Rates (around 3%) are helping to keep prices down in conjunction with a steadily expanding economy and declining unemployment rates. Spain has been transformed in the last three decades from a rural, backward agricultural Country into a Nation with a diversified economy and strong manufacturing and service sectors. Capital Growth in Spain is still high and is forecast to continue to grow by at least 10 per cent per year for the next five years of more. Off-plan purchases at promotional prices still offer the best opportunity to maximise profits. This excellent track record provides good grounds for continued confidence in the Spanish Market.
