 Spain Prevails

The current mortgage crisis in the United States affecting the real estate industry in that country, as for Buenos Aires apartments in Argentina, but has definitely not affected Spain. Spain continues to draw in huge crowds of tourists mostly coming from Britain who are after hot properties here both for sale and for rent. Spain’s homeowners and property investors have never brought down prices of their respective properties despite the burgeoning housing industry crisis across the Atlantic.

This is largely attributed to the cooperation of the tourism industry in this country to lure in tourists and other investors. Another sector which has lent its hand to help albeit in an indirect way is the government of Spain, particularly its legislature. Spanish government has relentlessly pursued a very sound real estate policy in terms of individual foreign ownership. This is particularly true in a lot of holiday homes in Mediterranean coastlines across the country.

Most of these holiday villas are owned by British tourists who have contributed to the real estate industry themselves by letting these properties to their fellow compatriot tourists. These foreigners are not only here to enjoy the sun, they have found a conducive business haven here as well. For as stated earlier, even real estate tax laws here are quite minimal. A property owner only pays a very reasonable annual income tax as well as the monthly garbage collection tax which goes directly to the local government. In Seville for example, property owners are indirectly encouraged by the local government to lease their empty properties to other tourists or else they face steeper taxes with an increase as much as 50 percent. These properties total to about 40,000 all in all so expect the real estate industry in Spain to enjoy its hype in the months to come even as the United States is currently experiencing a housing crisis.

And as properties in coastal areas continue to dense, many tourist adventurers have set their sights into the hinterlands. There are several real estate opportunities nowadays in areas such as Seville, Cordoba and Jaen. If one wants to purchase properties located within these places or even nearby, it is suggested that they come here at least a week during summer and another week during winter to get a feel of how it is to live in Spain. During winter, tourists are mostly focused on the Alps where a variety of winter sports are played. Therefore, Seville, Cordoba and Jaen are mostly concentrated on the locals at this time.

As stated earlier, tourism plays a key role in increasing real estate opportunities in Spain. Its natural temperate climate during summertime which causes the temperature to rise at a maximum of 18 to 22 degrees Celsius is very conducive for Western and Northern Europeans to relax here indeed. Coupled with a fascination for local customs, dishes, language, environment and the culture in general, these tourists ultimately purchase properties here since going to tropics is not feasible for them considering the intense heat and the presence of exotic diseases like malaria and dengue fever there.
