UK investors savvy with their Spanish investments

The Spanish property market has seen a lot of ups and downs in recent times, with good reason. Yet, despite this, the draw of UK investors to this market is still there and even increasing. Investors must make wise decisions about the best areas to invest and those to stay away from.

One of the best markets to invest in for the Spanish market is the tourism's high rental properties. The holiday letting market is not likely to take a fall because of Spain's international draw.

Yet, when investing in property here otherwise, how can investors know which areas are safe and which are not? Most investors advise to avoid the overpriced larger and even overdeveloped areas and instead seek out the more affordable options available. For example, some of the cities that are considered up and coming include Murcia, which is an ideal investment opportunity for many borrowers.

Another area to pursue includes the properties in university areas which make great buy to let opportunities throughout.

Many investors are staying away from some locations. For example, the beaches of Spain are being cleared to a certain amount in order to provide more favourable conditions for the environment. Additionally, many properties here are overinflated and not worth the investment currently.

Still in terms of a short term investment, Spanish property may not be the place to look. Rather, use Spanish property for its long term benefits. It will continue to rise in the long term.
