\"Andalusia

Andalusian property has recovered well<\/p><\/div>\n

The outbreak of the pandemic in March 2020 led to social changes at all levels<\/strong>: from consumer habits to work routines, through to the way we relate to others. The housing market was not immune to the effects of this dynamic and over the last 18 months the real estate market has registered important changes. Following the reopening of the market, recovery of activity in the housing market has been intense and, in addition, it is generalized in territorial terms: not all the autonomous communities have seen the same levels of activity, but all have seen an increase in the movement of real estate.<\/p>\n

Andalusia has shown a great recovery<\/strong> in the real estate market returning to levels that existed prior to the pandemic. In February 2020 33% of Andalusians between 18 and 75 years old were in some way involved in the housing market (both from supply and demand) that percentage is now 32%, just one percentage point below. However, it must be said that Andalusia has maintained high levels of participation throughout the pandemic<\/strong> and the lowest moment was seen in August 2020 when participation fell to 29%.<\/p>\n

Generally, the sales market has grown in all the autonomous communities. In Madrid, for example, 22% of individuals have participated in it in the last year. In the Basque Country they have been 20%, in the Valencian Community 19% and in Andalusia 17%.<\/p>\n

More Supply and More Demand in Andalusian Rentals<\/h3>\n

The good performance of the housing market is also noticeable in the rental market. In general, both demand and supply are growing compared to before the pandemic and this causes the share of the rental market to grow from 14% before the pandemic to 20% today.<\/p>\n

Prices of Homes For Sale<\/h3>\n

15 years ago the average cost of apartments for sale in Andalusia<\/a> reached \u20ac185,000. Tsis has now dropped to \u20ac133,000 on average<\/strong>. The cumulative price of homes for sale has risen in Andalusia by 16% in 5 years, but has fallen by -11% in 10 years (2011) and -28% in 15 years (2006).<\/p>\n
