Older properties seek favour in Spain

For those looking for higher priced homes – older more established properties seek favour in Spain.

“Without a doubt those looking to spend in the millions still flock to buy in Spain but they are looking at older, more established properties rather than new build”, says Serge Cowan, Director of Unique Living a company which specialises in quality homes.

Spain has been much in the news in recent months because of worries in certain areas about land grab, but this is a vast country with a great deal of charm, sophistication and a wealth of amenities for those who know how to enjoy life; sales of homes in the higher price echelons have not been affected by any adverse publicity.

Continues Serge, “We are currently averaging two sales a month in Spain for properties £1million upwards. This is because property prices are still rising due to supply and demand in the higher price ranges. Our buyers tend to be those looking for a home but with an eye to it also being a good investment. They very much err on the side of high quality, established homes which is the area in which we specialise”.

Unique Living deals with a number of famous names and high earners keen to have the personal, one to one service, which a company of this size and calibre can provide.
