Mallorca is the favourite spot for those looking to buy a property in Spain, a survey has shown.
The Spanish island accounted for 51 per cent of property queries on the country’s largest English language property portal Kyero.com last quarter.
Despite having the second highest average asking price in Spain at €428,300, the island’s glorious weather and beautiful beaches are making it a popular choice with Brits.
The survey also shows that nearly 20 per cent of all Mallorcan enquires in the first quarter of 2023 were for properties with a value between €300,000 and €500,000 and nearly 40 per cent sought just a two bedroom house.
Oddly enough, 64 per cent chose a property without a pool, which is usually a necessity for most other house hunters.
Ignacio Osle, sales and marketing director of Taylor Wimpey de Espana, said: “Mallorca seems be receiving a touch of the Monaco effect, attracting the rich and famous to our shores. The island is already noted for being fashionable, desirable and fantastic for boat owners and beach lovers alike.”
Andratx, on the island’s south-west tip has become a popular destination, catering for the very top end of the market.
