Girona proving to be one of spain’s better performing property markets

Girona has been named one of Spain's best performing real estate markets thanks to a variety of unique assets, according to an independent market research study based in Madrid.

Whilst the overall Spanish property market experienced a downward trend in 2011, prices in several towns in the province of Girona remained stable with increased demand from buyers in France, England, Scandinavia and Russia.

This increased demand and the consistency of property prices can be attributed to Girona's temperate year round climate, its proximity to the Coast, the Pyrenees and Barcelona and the wide range of leisure, culture and haute cuisine available within the region.

Furthermore, the sterling's current strength over the Euro alongside the continuation of the reduction of VAT to 4% throughout the country suggests that 2012 will be an opportune year to invest in the region. To add, the region was recently named the best golf destination in Spain by Today's Golfer Travel Awards.
