Why Spain is One of the Best Places to Buy in 2017

 

There are very few locations on the planet that are perfectly suited to every type of home ownership, but Spain is versatile enough to handle all comers.

Whether you’re looking to invest in property, buy a holiday home or move to Spain, the Spanish property market is a hospitable place, that can cater to any need.

Listed as one of the top 10 places to buy in 2017, Spain is in a unique position in that it’s a country with a warm climate in a desirable location, whilst being relatively close to the UK. Tourism is presently booming, the economy is growing and unemployment is dropping. The property market continues to improve following the crash in 2013. Property sales are up by 12% and have grown at this level since March 2014.

So which areas are currently considered to be the best for property? Murcia is currently a big up and coming area. Just off the south eastern coast of Spain, Murcia is home to world famous sporting resort, La Manga Club. Property remains affordable in this desirable area.

Surrounded by quaint fishing villages and with the city of Murcia a short drive away, there’s plenty to do outside the resort territory, all of which are dedicated to relaxation around communal pools and golf courses.

So why Spain?

1. The weather – It’s glorious in Spain pretty much all year round. For some that would be a good enough reason to make the move
2. The cost of living – The cost of everything is Spain is considerably lower even when the exchange rate is not at its best, from essentials like fuel and bills to the fun stuff like food and alcohol.
3. Jobs – Experts are predicting Europe will be seeing 6% more business this year. The upshot of this is Spain is predicting a rise in the number of jobs in hospitality – perfect for those with English as a native tongue.
