The Sharp Dressing Real Estate Market Still Pose Risks to the Spanish Economy

The Spanish Real Estate market’s (Spanish property) sharp dressing is still the country's economy one of the greatest short-term threat. Dressing for housing prices on household consumption, may also reduce investment in the construction sector. Integrated reported foreign on January 23, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD)pointed on the 23rd, the Spanish real estate market is still substantially repairing one of the greatest short-term threat to the country's economy . The OECD pointed in a Spanish economic survey, although the Spanish house price growth declined, but it’s still nearly 10% annual rate of increase. Since 1996, Spain actual housing prices have risen 130%, it’s the highest growth rate after Ireland and the United Kingdom in OECD countries.
Moreover, Spain, Ireland and the United Kingdom are the ones of the few countries house prices were overvalued with good evidences. It is estimated that the Spanish house prices are overvalued by 30%. However, the OECD warned that even the orderly adjustment of house prices, it may also affect the stability of the financial system in Spain, and it may reduce the perception of an impact on household consumption. Also, OECD said, with residential investment declining margins, residential construction industry may experience landslides. The OECD said housing prices to restore the long-term average level of domestic investment will lead to lower the percentage of GDP three percentage points.

This adjustment will be particularly damaging to the Spanish economy caused by the construction sector in 2005 accounted for 14% of overall employment Spain, and it creates new jobs 44% of the total new jobs.

The upsurge of Spanish real estate begins to decline

In recent years, the market of Spanish real estate (spanish property) is one of the markets that are the most popular in the Europe. Now, the upsurge of Spanish real estate begins to decline slowly. The increasing breadth of the house price in the past year is the lowest than the one since from 2000. According to the announce of house department, “in 2006, the total index of house price is increased by 9.1%, which is the lowest increasing breadth since from 2000.” Fernandez is number two person in the government, and he says that this number is lower than the increasing breadth one or two years ago. The house price is declining slowly, and this is a good news. The increasing breadth of the house price in 2005 is up to 12.6%. For ten years, Spain has been experienced the true upsurge of real estate. The lower interest loan, vital economy increasing and a large number of emigration make real estate industry be hotter and hotter. Since from 1997, the total number of increasing breadth for Spanish house price has been more than 150%. For several months, all indexes shown that the upsurge of real estate is beginning to decline. The vice director of Consumer Association Calais explains that the cooling that people are on the tiptoe of expectation is coming for several years. This promotion agency and expert estimate that the increasing breadth of house price is about 7% in 2007. The professor of commercial college Soares alleges that the first reason why the house price declines is that people can not bear it. He also says that there are some years, the increasing breadth of house price is up to 17%, which is higher the one of family economy ability more over. The other reason why the upsurge of real estate declines is that the family debt is more and more, and this is a foundation stone. In accordance with the latest data that is publicized by the Spain central bank, the total number of Spanish family debt is 765940000000 euros in November of last year, and it is increased by 19.5% than the one of the last year of before. In this data, the proportion that is used for paying off loans is increased fast, and it is 20.2%, and the total number is 560130000000 euros.

Spain, the rise breadth is considerable

In recent years, with the exception of sea island villas, the rising breadth of Spanish real estate (Spanish property) is considerable. Since from 1997, the rising breadth reaches to 130%. For the inflow of a large number of foreign immigrants, especially the requirements of people who come from the western Europe, the trend of Spanish real estate market is stronger and stronger in recent years. It was only in 2004 that there were 180 thousands sets of holiday villas built at the sea side. In 2005, it appeared the highest rising breadth about 17%. In further ten years, there are one million sets of similar houses in planning.
The policies that foreigners buy house in Spain
People can apply for bank loan if those who have lived in Spain buy house. They only need to pay a certain initial funds to buy a set of house, and the price is doubled within two years, and all foreign investors roll in here. In May 2000, Spanish government also passed a newest law that to protect the buyers’ interest: the agents are responsible for the process of building houses so as to ensure the developing demands. The new item content is insurance obligation, during ten years after building, any the destruction which is related with the houses will be guaranteed to keep in good repair, including the destruction of raw and processed materials. In other words, it is not only your property security can be protected very well, but also the insurance agent will be concerned with it and plays the management and check and accept role in building houses so as to ensure the houses quality and avoid appear some problem in future. The first step is to apply for loan. Please professional people who are good at financial knowledge as adviser, and get ready for all files; the second step is that bank evaluates the current price of the house; meanwhile, the bank sends people to real estate registered office to check that whether there is other burden or not; the third is that bank checkup information, including the individual information, identity and length of service prove and so on.
There are three ways to carry out island living
Although the heaven of spending holidays is far away the Mediterranean Sea, and Chinese people can enjoy villa spending holiday living through three ways. The first, those can buy the old villa of long history through Spanish professional agency. Although it is not easy to operate, if those live there termly, as long as look for local legal agency, they can finish planning. Because Spain is a member of the European commission at the beginning, and it strictly carries out EEC items from beginning to end so as to ensure the consumers and users’ legal interest is inviolable. The second, people buy new real estate items, and there are some items to be provided this service for Chinese people. The items take member system, and as long as they buy a house, they can join in committee and enjoy all services, such as whole laws, business procedures and transacting visa, house management, swimming pool maintain, rent management and so on. The members who buy villa can apply for living right to local government; the third is rent. There is committee that specializes in servicing for Chinese people, and it provides rent villa service. Through this pattern, those who want to spend holidays in there can buy villa; those who want to appreciate the amorous feelings of the Mediterranean Sea can rent villa to enjoy holidays through joining in some committees.
Tips:
The lay procedures of buying house: the first is to subscribe buying or sale notarial deed; the second is to register in property enrollment center. Other expenses of loan: 1. the launch fee of loan is 0.8%-2%; 2. evaluation fee: the bank evaluates, it is about 300 euros; 3. the tax of amanuensis laws behavior: it is difference in accordance with each province and municipality. It is between 0.5% and 1%. But you have to note that it is calculated on the base of loan fees; 4. the notarization fees: the fees are regulated by the royal laws; 5. real estate registration fee: the new landlord must go to real estate registration office to enroll. Or the old landlord can sell it to other people. The fees are also regulated by the royal laws; 6. the commission fees: after signing, those will take all files to financial department to pay tax and to register. All fees are paid by the buyers; 7. property insurance: the loan bank has right to force you to buy insurance until paying off all loan.

Talk about Spanish amorous real estate

How are many monarchs or nobles and fashionable person and stars’ names linked with many islands of the Mediterranean Sea together? There is island Costa del sol (Costa del sol property) for Spanish abundant island resources, and there are more than thousands of European visitors to visit. Meanwhile, the luxurious houses are in the ascendant, and the government also is dedicated in developing “Monte Carlo” of the Mediterranean Sea: the city layout of five million square meters, including perfect roads, lighting, energy sources, telephone system, drinking water system and other town planning service, and forest, golf course and villas and high level construction and construction configuration. The introducing of heat funds makes Spanish real estate (buying property in spain) run up 17%.

The floating free air and heaven atmosphere pillage Valentino and Swarovski and the famous heritor Fiona and Elizabeth Taylor……they forget all flesh and blood with sailor’s striped shirt, luxuriantly green and cultivated grapevine. Fiona will spend many times in private villa in Italian island every year. People often see this designer who walks at the tip of swim to wander between the alleys at will wearing shirt and trousers. He basks in the sunshine in order to get a suntan; designer Valentino says: “it is simply a crazy time.” he bought a villa on the Capri island in 1960s, and it was one of the oldest villas on the island. It is until today that he is living in there. He is used to wear a tint shirt, and the golden skin peers from behind the sunlight. He leans on the brushwood lackadaisically as well as a good dog, and talks about fashion with people enjoyably. The streets are out of the way and quiet, and there are only migratory small dogs and blatant insects. Those who love island life left the most candied times in their lives on the island, and there were no people to leave.

Mallorca (mallorca property), is a habitat of luxurious houses that are in the ascendant

“Mallorca is one of the most beautiful and the most unbeknown places in the world.” George Sang thinks. Although there are more than thousands of European visitors to visit the largest island of the Balearic Islands in Spain, there are 170 beaches that they are too many beautiful things and many valleys and mountains in natural protection area. The pattern of typical sunlight and beach make Mallorca become the most famous tourism resort in the world. However, it is only frequenters know that it is a habitat of several magnates.

Through beach and tourism and hotel district, you can see a piece of centralized and covert luxurious house district. It is hard to fine without acquaintances. My good friend Jacopo Peri was responsible for guide in my first seeing house travel. “The Tramuntana Mountains at the northwestern point of Mallorca cross the most gallant mountains district and peaceful villa district and busy beach as well as a mainstay, and Sv. Vita is located at one of the villa district of the bottom of mountains.” Peri is local celebrity, and he deals out the time of all his life to Milan, New York, Paris and Mallorca. Mallorca is center of gravity of his life. If he is not in passenger ships, then he is in his curio shop. He knows the each kind of construction configuration of Sv. Vita. Of course, because he is infatuated with beach, what he enjoys is to see villa of seascape. These villas are built depending on the mountains. The house broker what the landlord consigns garrisons the house that is intended to sale. There is a sale brand hanging on the doorway, “OPENHOUSE” means that this house will be sold. There is house broker’s photo and telephone number on the brand. At beside of brand, there is a small box being hung, and there is some introduction information about the house in it. The seascape villas that the price is the highest, some are that can see sea, and some are with swimming pool or big garden.

To show up luxurious house of more than thousand square meters

What the most impressive is the villa that can see golf course, and it is older than others. Peri says that it is built in 1930s. It covers with an area 3500 square meters, and the living area is 1100 square meters. Among of the first floor part is master room, including huge bedroom, special bathroom, cloakroom, children room and living room. The second floor is independent guest room, including sitting room, bathroom, bedroom and bathhouse and so on. The garden is filled with grape trees and ivies, and they close over others sight. Through schoolroom from cartilage, it is independent sporting space that is designed for masters and friends. It is worthy mentioning that health and sauna area about 162 square meters satisfies with the demands of modern holiday life. Another is normal European style two-floor construction. The pure white doorpost and statuary foil comfort of spending holidays. The villa is located at the extrusive cliffs, and it is not only the platform faces the sea, but also those can enjoy seascape out of the window for all rooms. The open air balcony is on the top and the office, kitchen, bodega and cloakroom are at the underground. There is a big yard at the behind of the house, including surf swimming pool about 18 meters, waterfall and garden. The torrid zone plant encloses a small style tropic rain forest, which makes the best remark for the character of the villa.

The hear funds towards to “Monte Carlo” of the Mediterranean Sea

The real estate of Mallorca is so prosperous in past ten years. Peri tells us that Spanish government is dedicated in developing Mallorca into the “Monte Carlo” of the Mediterranean Sea. It belongs to the private property of the Spanish royalty, and it is not only the first choice place that many celebrities get together, but also is Holy Land that the royal spends holidays and holds meeting and international business activities. There is monopolization shop in Mallorca, such as Cartier, Escada and Chanel; in addition, there are various art exhibition and famous pearl. It provides a high level shopping environment for upper class people. In addition, the government also develops the city planning of five million square meters, including perfect roads, lighting, energy sources, telephone system, drinking water system and other town planning service, and forest, golf course and villas and high level construction and construction configuration.

European real estate analysis-Spain

The development speed of European construction market has reached the highest level in the history from 2000, but the gross domestic product only rose by 2.6% in 2006, it is not satisfying absolutely for this. In despite of this, some European country markets and special fields are still filled with opportunity. Chris Sleight reported.

The forecast for construction industry indicated that the European construction market would reach the peak of development cycle in 2006. However, Europe is a slow development market. Compared with previous years, although European construction market is in the peak of development, the increase rate may be only 2.6% in 2006 (even if is the most optimistic forecast).

Although the increase rate of European construction market is not high, generally speaking, the Europe Union Free Trade Zone which covers 25 countries is the biggest construction market in the world. It is estimated that the total output of the European construction industry ranged between 1.42 trillion dollar and 1.61 trillion dollar, is higher 25%40% than the United States. According to the General Contractor Association statistics, the total output value of construction industry of the United States is 1.14 trillion dollar.

However, one of the main features of the European construction market is that it is a divided market. Construction markets in different countries have different features and the market impetus.

Seeing from market scale, France, German, Italy, Spain and British still take up the main position. The total output value of construction market of above countries account for 75% of the one of the European construction industry. According to the European Construction Industry Federation in Brussels, Belgium statistics, German is still the biggest construction project market, the total output value of construction in German reached 253 billion dollar.

For German, there are many troubles with the European construction market in the past ten years. East and West Germany consolidated in 1990, the construction market of German experienced flourish period about 5 years. The construction market of German reached peak in 1995, the total output value of German construction accounts for 30% of the one of the Europe. After experiencing unprecedented prosperity, following is the inevitable depression. From then on, the Germany construction market had been falling into the more or less long-enduring decline. Since the Germany construction market descended continuously, the other European countries, especially Spain, cut a figure in the construction market. The Germany share which occupies the total output value in the European construction industry reduced to 18%. At present, the difference of public opinion is that if the Germany construction market can increase. One side, the European Construction Industry Federation predicted that the total output value of the Germany construction would be reduced by 1%. The European Construction Group which is composed by many institutes specializing in economy forecast predicated that the total output value of the Germany construction industry would increase 1.2%.

We have to wait for a few months if we want to know the development direction of the Germany construction market. Even if the Germany construction market turned out well, but if it can last is another pair of shoes. The total output value of the Germany construction industry slightly rounded in 1999. However, from then on, the trend of construction market had fallen down.
The chairman of the Alliance Party Anger Merkel was elected as German premiers in November 2005. Anger Merkel promised that she would carry out reform on German labor law and social welfare system in order to improve the German economy competition power. In fact, after she won the election, people expressed the phenomenon that consumer confidence index greatly increase in “Merkel phenomenon”. But Ms. Merkel needed to prove that she could lead demos waltz through the test of reform, since the reform is a painful and unpopular in short time. And the German economy and construction market needed to carry out increase continuously.

As the same as Germany construction market, the prospects of Italian construction market is not optimistic. At present, there are some large-scale constructing projects in Italy, including some high speed railway projects of the north and middle areas. Also including hanging bridge project which across Messina channel, links southern mainland and Sicily Island. The whole bridge costs 7.68 billion dollar and is 3.3 km long.

However, besides these conspicuous projects, the Italian economy development is too slow, there are many problems as same as German, such as the employment system is not agile and high revenue and so on. Stagnant economy has bad impact on the development of the Italian construction industry.

Bright point, it is not certain that 5 construction markets have bad future. The Spain construction market is a star in Europe without fail. For ten years, the Spain construction market demonstrated strong growth, but it is still good. The total output value of the Spain construction industry rose by 4.6% in 2006, which reached 173 billion dollar.

Tow or three years ago, the large Spanish property market nearly collapsed. However, after December, the European Central Bank (ECB) consecutively increased the interest rates of 0.25% for four times. At present, the Spain real estate market has turned the corner.

Spain government devotes to basic construction unalterably, so Spain construction market gets benefits from it. Spain government had succeeded in making plan for basic equipment construction investment from 2000-2006, which had been replaced by 2005-2020 investment plans that were announced in July 2005. In this new plan, the total investment in the project of Spain will reach 319 billion dollar in the next 15 years. About half will be used to build railway network.

The performance of the British construction market was good in the past ten years. The increase rate in 2002-2003 reached peak. The British construction market slightly descended in 2005, but it began to rebound in 2006.

After experiencing the difficult period at the beginning of century, French construction market also came back..  People predicated that the increase rate of French construction market would exceed 3%, which is similar with the increase rate of 2004 and 2005.

For smaller scale mature market in Europe, there exist some bright spots. At present, the development trend of the northern Europe construction market is good. The increase rate of construction market of Sweden, Norway and Finland had reached 3% or higher in 2006. However, Denmark, which is the fourth largest market of the northern Europe, the development trend is bad.

In other northern Europe countries, it is predicated that the total output value of construction market of Ireland and Belgian would greatly reach 5% more or less. Netherlands is the sixth largest construction market in Europe, which the prospect of development is very optimistic. The annual total output value of Netherlands is 6.4 billion dollar, the increase rate also reaches 3.5%4.0% more or less.

The construction industry development of southern Europe is not ideal. Austria and Switzerland located at the Alps. The construction market hardly increased in 2006. The difference with Spain, the prospect of Portugal construction market is not optimistic.

As the same as Portugal’s situation, there is ubiquitous problem in Europe Union. 1990s in the 20th century, Portugal and Greece are the least developed countries of 15 Europe Union member countries. Portugal’s situation means that it is loan recipient of for two major European development banks---EIB and EBRD. Portugal also enjoys the unconditional gift of the Europe Union’s annual budget. The construction funds of the Europe Union come from the tax revenue of the Europe Union countries. At present, it accounts for 1% of gross domestic products in Europe Union, is about 154 billion dollar. These investments cause Portuguese construction market large-scale develop. The annual total output value of Portuguese construction industry rose by 10% or higher in 1990s of 20th century. But the construction market of Portugal decline severely in 2002. The reason is that the newly elected Portuguese government carries out severe policies. In the meanwhile, European loan subsidizes turned to other 10 European countries. Eight of them are poor countries in the central and eastern European which joined the Europe Union in May 2004.

The central and eastern European also begins to build basic equipment. The way is similar with the one which Portugal took in 1990s of 20th century.  The total output value of Portuguese construction industry has remained at 31 billion dollar for five years. Compared with 40 billion dollar highest recording in 2001, it dropped about 20%.

Burgeoning markets. When Portuguese construction market suffered from frustration, the burgeoning markets of the Central and Eastern Europe are increasingly flourish. It is difficult to estimate the increase rate of burgeoning market, however, it is undeniably that the total output value of the European construction industry is growing with the speed of more than 5% every year. It is good to grow for burgeoning construction markets. However, there is a large number of works to do before the burgeoning markets in these countries catching up with mature markets in the Western Europe. For example, the population of Poland and Spain is same, is about 40 million. But the annual total output value of the Spanish construction industry reaches 173 billion dollar, the one of Poland is only 3.3 billion dollar, is 16% of the one of Spain. From the area scale, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Esthonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia joined the Europe Union early or late, there are another 10 countries in the Europe Union. The total population increased 75 million. However, the total output value of construction industry increased by 70 billion dollar. In other worlds, the population of the Europe Union grew 20%, but the total output value of construction industry merely increased 5%. The growing speed of these burgeoning markets is faster than the one of the Western markets, since they are reducing the distance with the construction market of the Western markets. However, even if the development with the current speed, these burgeoning markets will take 20-30 years to catch up with the development level of the Western market.

Driving force. The European real estate market is still strong. The development speed of real estate market was slow in 2005, but it did not burst up. The European Construction Group predicated that the whole European real estate market would increase 3.5% in 2006. The other main driving force of driving the development of the European construction market is civil engineering fields. The increase rate of the Western Europe civil engineering will reach 2.8%, which accords with the development trend of construction market. The construction market of the Central and Eastern Europe is flourishing, the European Construction Group predicated that the scale of construction in these areas will increase by 11%, which is similar with the one in 2005. it is expected to further increase to a double-digit in construction market in 2007 and 2008, since these countries will rebuild and maintain broken high way and railway.

Foreground. The increase speed of the European construction market may be slow in 2 years. The European Construction Group predicate that the increase rate of construction market will fall into 1.7%, what’s more, the increase rate may increase 1.8% in 2008. In the main construction market, Spain is still the champion, the second is British and France. In the drop tendency of the market, the Italian construction enterprise may stagnate, Germany situation is not clear. It is obvious that the development prospect of small scale market is very good. The development prospect of the northern Europe construction market is very optimistic, the civil engineering of the Central and Eastern Europe is thriving. The whole increase rate of the European construction market is not dazzling, but appropriate fields and countries still offer a good chance for the development of construction market.

Spain: the golden age in real estate is end and it faces coast

For the people who live in the big city, the increasing house value is the problem that those care about. So is it in China as well as other European developed countries, such as Spain. The house value in Spain (Spanish property for sale) has been increased 114% in past 20 years. However, overheating real estate market could not hold out somewhat.
In the past 20 years, the house value in Spain has been increased 114%. Spanish economy has been increased for 14 years continuously under the leading of real estate market. But now, the overheating real estate market begins to not hold out. In Spain stock market, the real estate stock falls down for large range, and the five largest real estate stocks lose over 10% on the market. The stock market analyst Felix Martin said: “now, I only say that the golden age of real estate market in Spain has ended.”
The famous “Costa del sol” located at the south in Spain has attracted many European people to buy house at here for the warm climate and beautiful scenery. In recent years, the new built houses at Costa del sol (costa del sol property for sale) are up to 1.5 million suits. In Andalusia area, the new built houses are 17.3 thousands, which is far higher by 36% than the total number in past four years. The real estate investment is current for the house value increases fast. It is said that the house value in Spain has been overvalued about 30% at present from Spain Central Bank.
The news background: the real estate market in Europe lasts fiery-hot
In recent years, the real estate market also lasts calefactive in Europe with the exception of Spain. The house value in British is lasting rise lately. The International Monetary Fund publishes a report and says that the overheating real estate market in British may collapse at any moment. Real estate has become hotter and hotter in France Paris. At present, in the busiest street of Paris, the house value is 27 thousands euro per square meter. The insider estimates that the house value is out of joint with the market at present in Paris. In the past two years, the house value also is increasing in Moscow. It is 8000 dollar per square meter in midtown. The value of the most expensive mansion is 22 thousands dollar per square meter. It is analyzed that the main reason why the house value increases in Europe are that the number of house lacks and the foreign buyers’ investment is swarmed into and speculation.
