House-Hunting in Autumn: The best time to buy a property in Spain

The Spanish property market is currently being fuelled by robust economic growth. Backed by better buying conditions and an increased access to credit and loans, local and international investors are being driven to a market that is once again seeing prices rise.

Prime locations in Spain such as the Costa del Sol are seeing an influx of new-build quality homes with high buy-to-let potential. World famous for its climate, the Costa del Sol has 325 days of sunshine per year and average temperatures that rarely drop below double digits. In comparison to the summer months, when the region sees temperatures between 30 and 40 degrees celsius, heaving tourism and heavy traffic, Autumn is a much milder and quieter month to visit and scout out your perfect property.

In October and November on the Costa del Sol, temperatures drop to ideal levels - mild but still warm, falling between a comfortable 20-25 degrees celsius. Less volume of buyers gives investors house-hunting in Autumn further bandwidth to negotiate prices, and take the time to survey areas during the quieter season. Perfect also for morning walks in the campo, lunches on the beach and strolls around the many charming towns dotted along the coast!
