Spain’s Property Market in 2025: What Buyers Need to Know – and Why Mojácar Could Be the Perfect Choice

If you're considering purchasing property in Spain this year, you're entering a dynamic and evolving market. The latest data from Spain’s Notaries, the Spanish Land Registry, Kyero.com and CaixaBank highlight key trends that can help shape your decisions – and potentially lead you to a smart and rewarding investment.

A Strong Start to 2025

January 2025 recorded 60,033 property transactions across Spain, an 8.8% increase from January 2024. This builds on the strong momentum of last year, which saw overall sales rise by 11.5%. However, growth isn’t equal across all regions, with some areas seeing significantly higher activity:

• Canary Islands: +18.8%
• Andalucía: +10.4%
• Balearic Islands: +8.3%
• Valencia Region: +7.9%
• Murcia: +5.6%

For buyers, this shows that location remains crucial. The Canary Islands are surging, but regions like Andalucía continue to attract strong interest – and may offer a better balance between price and growth potential.

Prices and Mortgages on the Rise

Property prices in Spain rose by 6.9% in 2024, with hotspots like:

• Balearic Islands: +15.2%
• Cantabria: +11%

Mortgage activity is also climbing, with loans up 9.4% in January 2025, and the average loan now standing at €155,592.

For international buyers, this signals both confidence from lenders and continued competition in the market. Securing financing early in your property search could help you act quickly and lock in better terms.

What’s Driving the Market

Several key factors are behind this continued growth:

1. A strong recovery in tourism, especially in coastal areas.
2. Greater flexibility for remote workers, making lifestyle properties more appealing.
3. Limited supply of new builds in popular regions, keeping prices firm.
4. Broad economic stability and rising business creation.

According to CaixaBank Research, over a third of Spain’s larger cities will see price increases of more than 10% this year. Tourist hotspots and economic centres are expected to lead the way.
