Before we start, we must comment on the current situation in Spain: Being such a large territory, there is a lot of opportunity for property investments, but we must know what we are doing at all times to avoid making mistakes that affect our profits. That is why we must always take into account all the aspects related to the actions whether we want to buy a flat in Barcelona or, on the contrary, we have a property and we are looking for a real estate agency to help us to sell our flat or house in Barcelona (we always talk about Barcelona, as it is the area where we are specialists).

It is important to know that when we consider the option of investing, we must be very precise. Asking whether to invest in a property in Spain is asking a question in too wide a territory, as it will depend on the exact point, whether it is a good idea to invest or not. We recommend that before anything else, you focus on a specific point to make a good decision, and that it is not so risky.

Things to consider when investing in a property in Spain

Places to invest in Spain

In the last few years, we have had a very difficult situation. The pandemic meant that we had to stay at home and property prices have suffered the same. It is true that many places in Spain tend to keep the same price due to their location, for example Barcelona, Madrid, etc. It is very important to know the places that are profitable, and those that are not, to begin with, we are going to know the most expensive, and the cheapest.

Most expensive places to buy property in Spain

To make the decision about where to buy property, it is very important, as we have mentioned before, Spain is a very large territory and the decision could vary depending on where we are.

Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Madrid, Galicia, Vizcaya, Barcelona, are some of the examples of places where investing in property is more expensive. In recent years, due to the pandemic, prices have tended to rise, which is why the average prices of these places have been affected.

As we at Bcn Advisors are experts in the Catalan capital, we recommend that you take a look at some of the articles we have created where we talk about the upper area of Barcelona, as well as the best neighbourhoods and areas to live in Barcelona.

If you want to know more about the most expensive areas of Barcelona, take a look at the 2 articles where we explain in much more detail why to live in Pedralbes and why to live in Sarrià.

Cheapest places to live in Spain

Although property prices in Spain tend to rise, we can highlight two places that tend to always remain low. The prize for the cheapest place to invest in property in the country is in Castilla La Mancha, specifically in Toledo, but there are also other places where it remains low, such as Palencia.

What is the optimum profitability percentage when investing in a property?

It is important to know what the profitability of your investment is, and it is advisable that we do not proceed to buy and rent a property that does not have at least 5% profitability. This will ensure that the profit we get from this management, is the highest possible.

In conclusion, if you have in mind to make an investment to obtain the highest profits, we recommend without a doubt that you invest in this sector, in fact, according to many sources, the real estate sector is one of the best to obtain one of the highest profits from your investment. From Bcn Advisors, we encourage you to inform yourself correctly about the optimal way to invest in a property, and in a short time you will be able to see how the returns on your investment increase. Good luck!

We had a fantastic experience with BCN Advisors right from day one when we reached out to view a property. Unlike other real estate agencies we had contacted previously - where the only goal seemed to be pushing any apartment on the market - the team at BCN Advisors took genuine time to listen, understand our exact requirements, and prioritise properties that truly matched our criteria. A special thank you to Yolanda for the smooth initial coordination and introducing us to Sylwia. Sylwia was absolutely phenomenal throughout the entire search. Extremely professional, dedicated, and attentive, she went out of her way to show us apartments that fit our profile and was the main player in finding our ideal home. When it came to the deposit phase, meeting Raul was pivotal, he was refreshingly direct, business-oriented, transparent, and key to securing the property while ensuring we had total clarity on the current market. The whole experience was seamless, trustworthy, and stress-free. We cannot recommend the BCN Advisors team highly enough!

We started looking at flats to buy with the expectation that it would take long to find one. Might take even years. Two months in, we met with Marisa from BCN Advisors to view a property and we all knew immediately that we found it. Being first-time buyers and not at all prepared for an immediate buy, we had to organise ourselves quite quick not to lose this opportunity. The BCN Advisors team did their best to help us out. Francisco and Raul conneced us with some top local companies to help with financial and legal services and informed us proactively on the status of the process. The team has deep market knowledge, a wide network of connections and the empathy to handle clients with the right level of handholding. We are now happy property owners, and immensly thankful to BCN Advisors.

We sold our house through Bcn Advisors and I would like to commend the staff for the consistent flow of viewings with buyers who truly matched our property type. I was pleased by their dedication throughout the process. A special mention goes to our agent, Sylwia, who was incredibly professional. She successfully closed the sale by effectively highlighting the apartment's full potential and unique features to the buyers.

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from BCN Advisors. They were truly outstanding from start to finish. They handled the sale of my flat with the highest level of professionalism, created a wonderful presentation that really showcased the property and achieved a great price. Thanks to their extensive network, including collaboration with other real estate agents, the flat reached the right buyers quickly and effectively. What impressed me most was how smooth they made the entire process, offering clear and reliable legal guidance and taking care of all the necessary documentation so I didn’t have to worry about a thing. A seamless, stress-free experience and a result beyond my expectations. Thanks Raul and Jose!!
