4th Quarter Boost in Property Sales In The Canary Islands

With the majority of 2009 behind us it is becoming easier to piece together a picture of how the Canary Islands and in particular Gran Canaria’s and Fuerteventura’s property markets have been moving this year. Compared to mainland Spain the Real Estate market in the Canaries have enjoyed a certain amount of ‘cushioning’ due to its unique geographical position, endless summer climate and restricted supply of luxury second homes, however it has not escaped the general effects of the downturn over the last 18 months with property prices levelling earlier this year.

Higher sales figures this quarter are no doubt due to the specific price deals available on selected products as no doubt were Q1/2 sales when prices had ‘bottomed’ after a long slide in 2008. GoldAcre Estates reported that the return of buyer confidence in Fuerteventura was quite noticeable in Febuary / March showing particular interest in 1-2 bedroom luxury apartments which offer increasingly higher returns as prices had fallen against potential rental incomes.

Resorts in Corralejo like Oasis Papagayo and Oasis Tamarindo were the biggest movers as these had the added advantage of large swimming pools, lush tropical gardens, security and extra sports facilities which make them ideal for holiday rentals. Others like Oasis Royal, Dunas Residential and Atlantic Gardens were a little slower to react to the market changes but offered high value due their central positions closer to the main tourist centre and beaches. In fact GoldAcre Estates said it was not uncommon to see multiple purchases for these style of apartments.

To begin with, Sterling rates dampened the return of the UK investor early in the year and many British buyers lost out to new European markets including the Netherlands and Italy in particular which have not been affected by the need to exchange their monies as they are already euro based.
New flights from these areas including Poland also helped transfer these ‘holiday’ markets into the second home ownership market with buying interest mainly in the North Island of Fuerteventura.

The luxury villa section also saw growth as private owners and specialist developers offered limited price deals. The villages of Lajares, Villaverde, and to a lesser extent La Oliva and El Roque caught the attention of those who may have never considered these areas due to budget constraints. 3-4 bedroom detached villas with large private pools and 1000m2+ plots in a quite country setting yet 10 mins from the beaches were on occasion lower than the magical €300k mark.

Surprisingly despite recent macro economic conditions the trends still follow traditional historic patterns with the main sales in the periods either side of summer holidays. During August as many public services close for holidays including some Notaries and lawyers offices there are fewer exchanges of contracts plus the main holiday markets are busy enjoying the beaches rather than scouting for their next property purchase. August 2009 however saw a high interest level with many visitors taking a serious look at apartments and villa offerings. This has also been extended into the winter season .

In fact the increase of flights to Fuerteventura and Gran Canaria will be a big factor for Q4 as already Christmas flights are becoming booked out. For those existing property owners and clients of Goldacre Estates, Christmas in their second homes in the Canaries never looked brighter. www.goldacre-estates.com

New Yacht Marina Is To Be Constructed In Corralejo, Fuerteventura, Canary Islands

A new yacht marina is to be constructed in Corralejo, Fuerteventura which will provide 650 private moorings in an adventurous expansion plan of the present harbour. The project, which will be funded by the Canarian Government, is in the early stages of planning but it is hoped that it will go out to tender early next year.

Corralejo harbour is one of the busiest in the Canaries with over a million passengers a year using the ferry link to Lanzarote and the project will ensure that increasing passenger demand can be met.

The scheme will create two new commercial jetties and a multi purpose water sports building as well as the marina. Once the construction work begins it is expected to take around two years to complete.

This is good news for home owners and investors as marinas are sort after locations for property purchasers and the construction of the new marina will mean that homes in the immediate area will be at a premium.

Where Is Your Pound going in Spanish Real Estate today

Keith Spitalnick Business Development Manager of Currencies Direct predicts an upward trend for the Value of sterling against the euro by the year end. This is good news for Spanish Real Estate and people looking to buy property in the Canary Islands and Spain, prices could not be better as many new properties today are being offered at discounts and of course you have very good prices on some resale properties from people that are having to sell their Spanish property.

Read Keith full story and prediction of how he sees sterling moving, Keith commented, I keep getting asked is where I see GBP/EUR headed by then. I personally feel that GBP/EUR is in an upward trend however the language from the Bank of England is holding it back, trying to hold the pound low. After Christmas sterling could start to rally. 1.1500 is my short term target.


It’s been another busy week for GBP/EUR as the fallout from the latest Quarterly Inflation report was digested in the papers; the Banks assessment for growth is now twice the latest consensus of their panel of independent forecasters and their predictions for inflation and interest rate levels over the next couple of years have been revised sharply higher. This helped to boost the pound ahead of the Bank of England minutes last Wednesday. The pound also rallied as we saw the UK inflation numbers come in higher than expected. This gave Sterling a strong boost all round, on expectations that, with inflation “surging”, rates might have to be raised sooner rather than later. I think that this is an unlikely scenario and that Base Rates will remain at these low levels until the 3rd quarter next year, possibly longer.


The Euro was not so fortunate with comments from ECB president Trichet rattling the euro. He commented that the fiscal situation in some European countries is so bad that there is a danger that markets will lose faith in them. At last a bit of plain talking from the ECB! In addition we saw the Euro current account showing a deficit of €5.4 billion - this was concerning as it identified a surge in imports and slumping exports; this could bring the strength of the euro back to the fore as a red flag for the ECB. If this issue is raised it could start to turn the tide on recent euro strength…

Unfortunately the pound could not hold onto its gains after peaking at 1.13. This was due to the split decision from the Bank of England who were split three ways on the November Quantitative Easing vote. 7 backed the £25 billion increase, David Miles wanted a £40 billion increase and Spencer Dale wanted no change. This undermined sterling which immediately dropped over half a cent against the USD and the Euro. The split has highlighted the indecision on future policy and this is hardly surprising given the implications on monetary policy decisions within the current economic climate.

So overall its the same old problems hurting the pound in the form of QE and concern over public debt. However it is widely expected that UK GDP will be revised higher next week for the third quarter and that fourth quarter data will show an exit from the recession...therefore the pound should start to perform better going forward. Last week we also witnessed one or two red flags from the Euro zone and the recent support of the euro against the US dollar could wane if more concerns arise...this would certainly play into GBP/EUR gains.

GoldAcre Estates launches Fractional Ownership properties in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands, Spain

GoldAcre Estates Fuerteventura’s leading Estate Agent has just launched a fractional ownership program in conjunction with the Fractional Property Group which will eventually rolled out throughout the Canary Islands and Spain.

John GoldAcre stated that the Spanish Real Estate market was going through a significant change, not just because of the current economic downturn but in general a lot of the ‘quick buck Estates Agents’ have now gone and we are starting to a core of more professionally run Estate Agencies throughout Spain, that are more focused on clients needs and the key element of client satisfaction.

New products are being investigated by Real Estate Agents such as the growing market of Fractional Ownership which is being driven by consumer demand for high quality properties without the need to obtain mortgages, client recent experience with banks have made them look differently at their overseas purchases and the amount of money they are prepared to expose themselves to, Fractional Ownership provides the client with the opportunity of owning freehold property in the Canary Islands without the need to commit to the full capital value of the property.

John commented that it was very important that the integrity and value of any program is maintained as otherwise Fractional Ownership will just end up falling into the same category as timeshare, for example some Real Estate Agents are trying to introduce 10 or 12 shares on property just to try to make it look cheap.

The maximum John GoldAcre said that GoldAcre Estates will arrange any Fractional Ownership program for is 4 or 6 shares, which would give each individual owner either 2 or 3 months usage of their property spread throughout the year.

All the properties with be furnished to a luxurious quality with everything taken care of the for the owners, the owners useage program will be based on a 4 year rolling calendar which will give the owners useage every season and every month of the year over the 4 year term, each owner can sell their shares independently of the other owners at any time.

GoldAcre Estates Fractional Ownership program commences with two different styles of property, one being frontline Apartments to the sea the other being Villas.

The apartments are Luxury 3 bedroom 2 bathroom sea facing, close to a marina and Blue flag beach. Each apartment has 42 m2 terraces and has it own parking underground, the facilities include a 27 m long pool, Gym and lifts to all floors, 1/6th Shares are only 45,000 euros each, John made the point that at this price this was less than the cost of a cheap one bedroom apartment.

The Villa is situated close to one of the main towns in the North of Fuerteventura and features Two Bedrooms parking and Gardens and 1/6th shares are only 32,000 euros each.

GoldAcre stated the advantage to a buyer of Fractional Ownership is that each owner does not have to worry about the day to day running of their property all bills are paid all the cleaning and maintenance is taken care of and the property is prepared and ready for each owners visit, unlike a wholly owner property where each owner is required to pay all their own bills organize maintenance etc ..

GoldAcre Estates have been in Fuerteventura Real Estate for the last 8 years and some 12 years in the Canary Islands in total, they have offices in Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Greece.
