The Spain residential real estate market size was USD 145.18 Billion in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 264.67 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 6.9% during 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the increase in construction as well as population.
Spain’s real estate market is posting a positive trend, especially in terms of demand. The revival in house sales was high in 2021. For instance, 468,000 transactions were completed by October 2021, a growth of 35.9% compared to 2020 and up by 8.3% on 2019. The activity in the residential sector was highest since 2008. A large part of this revival in demand has come from a reduction in pent-up demand and the forced savings accumulated during the months of lockdown and severely restricted travel, combined with highly favorable financing conditions, which make it more attractive to buy and invest in real estate assets. The residential sector is therefore on track to close 2021 with 545,000 sales in the year as a whole.
Before the pandemic began, the residential real estate market in Spain was growing at a healthy pace, which was then dented by Covid-19 as the construction of housing units came down. However, in 2021, the market was back on track with increase in construction.
As per the latest data from the Appraisal Society, it indicates that the price of new housing has remained stable, in a context of increased sales and improvement in economic indicators. The average price of new homes has grown 0.4% in Spain over the last 12 months to Euro 2,482 (approximately USD 2812) per square meter. This slight increase has been generalized and has been registered in 16 of the 17 autonomous communities.
The economic consequences of the Covid crisis made a dent in the real estate market, and has reflected in the 16.7% collapse of sales in Spain in 2020 to 419,898 transactions. As a result, experimental ways of life are introduced into the real estate market to compensate for the lack of social interaction between people.
