Property Mallorca: in Majorca soon will be built more

The real estate market in the Balearics moves slowly again. The recent sales were set in July, leading to the current housing backlog is slowly diminishing. Overall, in the period around 1000 flats were bought, which means an increase of 8.6 percent over the previous year.

547 homes are new construction and 454 are from existing homes. In particular, the marketing of new homes rated the developer as an important signal. It is this the second highest sales rate this year. And despite the increase in VAT in Spain. This could obviously do not disturb the growing demand.
Overall, the positive tendency in this year far greater than generally expected, said the chairman of the Association of the Balearic property developers, Gabriel Oliver. They had expected that only about 3000 in Mallorca new apartments are sold and all the islands about 5,000 Because the numbers are now much higher, so does the inventory of vacant homes decreased more than expected.

The developers expect that the end of the year in Mallorca about 3,800 homes are still not sold. Increased demand will also mean that at least from the second quarter of next year, again new homes are built.
Currently, the construction of new homes is virtually paralyzed. This is partly because the banks are extremely cautious about lending. However, the current vacancy rate is projected to all be sold, so that would also once again a demand in the construction of new dwellings.
