Is a Spanish investment property only to be found at auction or as a bank repossession?
Spanish banks and building societies are often prime sources of Spanish investment properties as they repossess them to pay off the outstanding debt.
While there are genuine investment properties in Spain available in this way, most are never advertised or made available to the general public. things are changing
A network of insiders
Some Spanish banks make the best investment properties available first to their own employees and, by extension, their friends and families.
Given that the four largest Spanish banks employ over 400,000 people worldwide, it’s easy to see how the most attractive Spanish investment properties are snapped-up by a network of ‘people in the know’ – long before the left-overs are made available to the general public. things are changing
Not always a sound investment
Additionally, in the past when the banks were happy to lend in excess of 100% of the market value of a property, many of today’s Spanish ‘investment’ properties were originally over-valued. This means that even when offered for sale to clear the debt, such ‘investment’ Spanish properties are still over-priced. Just because a property is for sale at debt value, or direct from the bank does not automatically make the property a wise investment. things are changing
Property auctions
Many investors assume that the surest way to find an investment property in Spain is via a property auction. However, only a tiny fraction of desirable properties find their way through to the auction process. This means that much prime property stock remains hidden from the majority of buyers. Even when a property is presented for auction, it will often be saddled with an unrealistic reserve price. things are changing
The truth is that the vast majority of investment properties in Spain, including those marketed as distressed or repossessed or available at auction simply do not represent a genuine investment opportunity, nor a substantial discount below current market value.
Things are changing
Now, because of the large stock of unsold Spanish properties, things are finally changing.
Builders and developers are having to take a different approach to sell the stock of properties. A few of the larger and more well-established developers are making selected key-ready properties available to the general public at discounts of up to 50%.
These properties are not distressed, repossessed or off-plan developments. They are new, fully finished, fully legal and ready to move in to. In most cases they come complete with the builders’ 10-year government-backed guarantee.
HomeEspaña have forged strategic relationships with well-known and reliable builders and developers. They have whittled down the vast stock of available properties to only those which are:
- Fully completed with all licences in place
- In superb locations
- Finished to a high standard
- For sale at least 40% off peak prices
