Barcelona has undoubtedly become one of Europe's most coveted cities, with more and more foreigners attracted to its vibrant nightlife, trendy arts scene, incredible atmosphere and international inhabitants. Needless to say, the Spanish property market is also growing steadily in popularity meaning there are lots of new properties on the market to suit all kinds of tastes. With developers building swanky new urban homes in the city centre to people selling their old properties in need of refurbishments, Barcelona is simply bursting with interesting projects for foreign buyers looking to break into the Spanish market.
Spain has also become a popular place for buying investment properties and many people in Britain are opting to buy their first homes in Spain rather than their own country. The Spanish Housing Ministry recently released figures that property prices in Spain had risen by 9.1% in 2006, down from 12.8% in 2005. However, real estate experts have suggested that this may make it the perfect time to pick up a property in Spain, before the prices rise again, as they are expected to.
