Types of Flats for Sale in Andalucía, Spain

1. Pre-Owned Flats in Andalucía

This category of apartments in Andalucía is the most popular and dominates the current Andalucían housing stock of flats and apartments. During the Spanish housing boom, property developers discovered demand exceeded supply, unable to keep up with foreign investor appetite for a life in the sun. Consequently, many developers sold the bulk of their flats for sale in Spain (off-plan) before completion.

After the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-8 fortunes changed, as did the landscape of Spain’s real estate market and some projects where halted, other developers went bankrupt, and the remaining (financially stronger) developers continued construction, delivering completed apartments into the crisis. Today, this presents buying opportunities for the savvy investor as the apartments in Andalucía are priced as pre-owned, but relatively new given completion and handover occurred less than 10 years ago.

2. Brand New Flats in Andalucía

Recently completed apartments in Andalucía are back in fashion as investor confidence returns to the market. Previously a favourite of expat buyers for holiday Spanish homes (second to off-plan apartments), brand new apartments in Andalucía are enjoying resurgence in popularity and price since Andalucían property prices have well and truly recovered (after a consecutive 8-year decline). Buying brand new today allows you all the advantages of a new build in addition to cost savings buying direct from the developer, or at minimal premiums (on construction cost) from the secondary market.

3. Off-Plan Apartments in Andalucía

What was once the hottest category amongst foreign investors (pre-housing crisis) has returned to the Andalucían housing market with gusto as developers successfully complete bigger and better apartment projects. Confidence has returned to real estate in Andalucía since Andalucían property prices have officially recovered and residential building permit applications (a measure of construction activity) are on the rise. Buying off plan affords the astute buyer an advantage of lower-than-release price (when completed) direct from developer, cash flow ease with installment options, and greater freedom of customisations and flexibility in finishing standards.
