Malaga real estate blog: read about the Malaga estates and Spanish property market after Brexit

Malaga estates and Spanish property market after Brexit

The British prime minister Theresa May announced she will trigger Britain’s formal exit from the EU on 29 March 2017. What does this mean for the property market in Spain and more specifically for Malaga estates for sale?

It is sure that there has been an unvoidable impact for 9 months since the British referendum. Statistically one in five foreign buyers are British, and any fall in their activity is likely to have a noticeable effect on Malaga estates sales. The only tangible effect of the Brexit vote in 2016 was a fall in the value of the British Pound. As a consequence of this, smaller properties and cheaper locations became winners. UK buyers have adopted a ¨wait-and-see¨ policy since February 2017.

Challenges on the Malaga estates market after 29 March 2017

In reality, however, 4 out of 5 buyers are NOT British. In addition, Malaga estates prices may be higher than in other Spanish provinces like for example Almería and Valencia, but this has been the case for many years. In the province of Zaragoza, for example, average prices are around €20,000. Malaga Estates, your Malaga real estate specialist, will do fine thanks to their focus on many markets the British being only one of them. For Malaga Estates, Brexit is creating opportunities to serve you as a seller or buyer in the best way possible.

Spanish Malaga Estate – The power of winter sun in Torrox, Nerja and along the Costa del Sol – real estate Malaga

Spanish Malaga Estate – The power of winter sun in Torrox, Nerja and along the Costa del Sol – real estate Malaga

October 2016 reports show foreign buyers went sun chasing in October, with areas like Torrox-Costa, Nerja and the Costa del Sol now trending.

This is something we see basically every year, but it comes at the end of a particularly good year for Torrox-Costa, Nerja and the Costa del Sol. The Ministry of Development (Fomento) just reported a healthy rise in foreign sales, particularly in Torrox-Costa where a major part of all house sales in Q2 2016 went to non-Spanish buyers.

British buyers continue to dominate demand in Torrox-Costa, Nerja and along the Costa del Sol. This will increase in 2017, especially for Torrox-Costa and based on the many efforts the local government does to invite international buyers and tourists to this place known for having the best climate in Europe. Last week the local mayor Oscar Medina España and the Councillor for Tourism Sandra Extremera attended the World Travel Market in London where they signed contracts with various British tour operators.

Property for sale in Malaga – please read this first and save a lot of time! Malaga estates specialists of the new generation

Property for sale in Malaga has been popular since the 60s of the previous century. During the decades the market of property for sale in Malaga has become more and more intransparent and today it can be even named ¨chaotic¨. We have been buyers of property for sale in Malaga for more than 10 years and have learnt that selling and buying property in this market is quite a challenge each time. Sometimes it seems that estate agents never learn! I am not going to sum all the frustrations we have known during the years and would like to give a couple of recommendations of Malaga estates agencies that are specialists in Malaga real estate and of one that specializes in Malaga luxury homes, property for sale in Malaga in the higher price ranges.

1. In Torrox-Costa, perhaps an old-fashioned website yet a well-organized Malaga estates agency: website

2. In Marbella and Torrox-Costa, a Malaga estates agency specialized in property for sale in Malaga province more on the east side in areas like Nerja, Frigiliana, Torrox, Torre del Mar, Rincón de la Victoria. Partners of the Malaga estates agency mentioned in ¨1¨: website

3. In Marbella and Málaga, this Malaga estates agency specializes in Malaga luxury homes: website

LATEST UPDATE: All 3 agencies have decided to use one and the same website from 10 October 2016.

What these 3 Malaga estates agencies have in common:
