14/06/07 - Cheaper Property Now Available in Spain

Britons looking to invest in foreign property could find that now is a good time to negotiate for cheaper prices, according to one expert...

Thanks to some unfavourable press reports surrounding a property crash in Spain - which some experts deny - opportunities to acquire a property for appealing prices could present themselves, said Miranda John, manager of broker Savills Private Finance International.

She told the Independent that compared to five years ago, some investors are starting to look further afield because of the expense of Spanish property - meaning that there could be more leverage for investors to seek a better price.

"If you buy prudently, now is a good time to negotiate an attractive deal in Spain," commented Ms John.

A recent survey from Banco Halifax Hispania found that nearly two-thirds of Britons living in Spain are under 55 - perhaps contradicting notions that Spain is largely a retirement hotspot for property buyers.

Additionally, the thought of living in Spain seems more attractive to women than it does men, the survey also found.
