What do the latest figures show?

The most recent data comes from Spanish notaries, which revealed earlier this month that December 2018 saw year-on-year increases in both sales figures (1.2%) and mortgage activity (6.2%).

While these figures are still provisional, they continue to show an upward trend in the Spanish property market that can be traced back to early 2013. Not only, in the final month of last year, did the number of sales and purchases finalised reach 51,603, but there was also a 5.7% jump in the average price paid for units of housing, hitting €1,459 per square metre.

Another increase observed for December was in the number of mortgages constituted on housing purchases, at 23,051, which was 6.2% up on the same month in 2017.
