The General Situation

Mallorca and its neighbouring islands have been favourite investment markets for property hunters now for many decades. A villa, country home or a lock-up and go apartment for sale in Mallorca have always been regarded as solid investments, not only with financial aspects in mind, but also with regards to a benefiting from a completely different lifestyle.

But now the world is facing a huge challenge that cannot even be compared to past financial crisis. This crisis is not just going to blow over very soon, because once the health threat has been resolved by professionals who are frantically working in labs all over the world to find a vaccine, the financial impact of this shut-down in countries including those of the economic giants, will be tremendous and the world will have to deal with this impact for some years to come.

So what does this mean for Mallorca and one of its main income sources – the Real Estate Market? Those who know the island well will not be surprised that there has not been a slow down as far as enquiries for properties for sale in Mallorca are concerned, on the contrary, enquiries are increasing.

Set apart from the mainland, Mallorca and the sister islands have fortunately been protected from the rapid out-break of this pandemic by the sheer distance provided by the Mediterranean. Thankfully, the virus has not been able to spread like in Spain’s major cities, such as Madrid or Barcelona and the few mortality cases on the island (4 in all so far) were down to unfortunate previous health problems.

The natural protection that the Mallorca’s position surrounded by the sea enjoys, and the ease with which all islands have been able to implement a lockdown, which incidentally has been welcomed by all residents, are safe-guarding the inhabitants. Many owners of properties for sale in Mallorca are extremely grateful to be here on the island where they feel much safer, than in their home countries.
