Spanish island Majorca's real estate has been popular for several decades now, with many Europeans who have holidayed on the Spanish island deciding to buy a second home for holidays, a business, or for retirement.
Prices have risen on the island as buyers - mainly British and German - have moved in, but there are mixed signals coming from the property and tourist sectors, which could see a freeze in
Majorca property inflation, and possibly even a dip in prices in the near future.
Official figures for
Majorca holidays this year indicate an increase in tourist numbers by between five and seven per cent. And it is from the pool of holidaymakers where property sales often happen a few months later, as some visitors like the island so much they decide to look into buying an apartment or villa, with some even retiring to the island, or buying a business.
With the increase in visitor numbers, property demand should in theory be good.
Cheap Majorca flights have been running for some years now, and even with increased air tax in the UK, Majorca is easily accessible from more than a dozen airports in the UK for property owners and tourists alike, with a flight time of under two hours, allowing a market for weekend homes for overseas property buyers.
Although one of the earliest package holiday destinations with companies like
Thomas Cook, Majorca has had new competition in recent years from the former Soviet Bloc countries in Eastern Europe, that are now able to offer cheap holidays to the British market, and for the property market countries like Croatia and Bulgaria have been able to offer apartments and villas at a fraction of the price Majorca can offer.
In response, the island has fought back showing it's not just the
weather in Majorca that attracts property buyers, but a well established market with the infrastructure in place to protect overseas investors money.
Home Market
Any slow down or possible reversal of property prices could be welcomed by the local Majorca population.
They have seen the price of property in
Majorca escalate, and many have been priced out of buying their own home.
This has led to some protests, with a demonstration against plans for more development in Majorca being held earlier in the year, with the belief that developers will destroy what is left of Majorca's open spaces, and rendering the
map of Majorca unrecognisable in years to come.
With encouraging tourist figures, Majorca hasn't been resting on her laurels. This summer's SuperCup yachting event has seen the appointed of an experenced race organiser, in an attempt to make the event more high profile.
Similarly, neighbouring island Menorca is hosting a Classic Yachts weekend, with entrants expected from across Europe, with the event boosting occupancy for
Majorca hotels.
Of the three Balearic Islands, Ibiza comes top for spending per tourist according to official recent statistics, reaching nearly a hundred Euros a day per tourist, with Majorca second, and Menorca third.
Current prices for property in Majorca include brand new 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartments in Puerto Pollensa at 285,000 Euros, a country house with its own pool at 1,500,000 Euros, and a three bedroom three bathroom villa with its own pool at 900,000 Euros.

Buy to let property is a fantastic way to ensure your future. Why are there so many people interested in purchasing properties? Instead of investing your hard earned money in the stock market some people recommend that you buy properties to let because it can be a much safer and stable way to earn money on your investment. In fact, those people that formerly relied on the dividends provided by shares to build up their pensions are now turning to this type of investment.
Michael Flannagan, a property owner explains why everyone is interested in buying property: “I can trust that my properties will be worth something in the future. It’s not like shares where I don’t have any guarantees and nail biting is common.”
People are buying up property as fast as they can because the return on the investment is far more reliable than any other short or long term investment. Becoming a landlord is an excellent way to earn a decent return on your investment—once the mortgage is paid in full, all of the income associated with the property you let will be profit; less tax and the cost of property maintenance of course. If you do things wisely, the money earned from the property you let can actually pay the mortgage. Unlike the price of shares which can fluctuate wildly, the value of property rarely declines. Clearly, the act of
letting properties is based on the safety of the investment.
Nevertheless, when you start buying properties to let there are a few things that you will need to consider. First, being a landlord is not always a simple task: at least it is not as simple as it first sounds. As a landlord, you will be legally responsible for the property and will be governed by various legislation that applies to letting properties. The best person to advise you about your rights and obligations as a landlord would be a solicitor—one knowledgeable about properties and property letting.
You will also need to consider that there may be times when the property is vacant between tenants so good accounting needs to be applied. Remember, if you are counting on the money you get for letting the property to pay the mortgage you won’t necessarily have the cash immediately available. Clearly, if you begin buying properties with a view to letting them, it would be better that you have a contingency to cover the mortgage during the periods where you will find yourself without a tenant.
Another thing to consider as a landlord is that not every tenant is going to be the perfect tenant. In fact, some tenants may damage the property and you may be forced to make repairs to the property before you are able to let the property again. Again, having a cash reserve for such occasions is warranted in order to be truly prepared for whatever mishap may come your way. Better yet, investing in building and contents insurance is a must if you plan on letting any property—insurance should help you cover some or all of the damage to your property.
When you decide to invest in property you will want to buy in an area that has many resources for the potential tenant. In fact, the more resources available for the potential tenant or tenants the better—resources such as nearby shopping areas, recreational facilities and schools all make the property you plan to let particularly attractive. By purchasing property that is surrounded by resources, you will find that you will have a much easier time in letting the property. This is an important forethought when choosing your property.
Experts also advise that you keep the property you purchase for the long term if you really want to gain better returns from your purchase. Ken Derby, a property agent states it well, “Be prepared to hold on to the property you purchase for the long term. Don’t be in a hurry to make a fast turn around and don’t panic if the property prices drop suddenly. Property prices will rise again and your investment will be fine if you don’t panic.”
Don’t expect to rake in the cash once you purchase a property. Remember, like shares, purchasing property is an investment in the future, one that can make you a considerable capital profit over time. Only after the mortgage is fully paid off will you begin to see a significant turn around in terms of income but on the other hand, you can establish a regular moderate income by letting properties that are geared correctly—where the rent is more than the mortgage payment—of course, you won’t want to set the rent too high as it could deter tenants in a competitive market.
There is money to be made buying properties and letting them as long as you buy the right property and are willing to hold on to your initial investment as well as being properly prepared for the “down” periods. For all intents and purposes, the buy to let trend is replacing the market in shares investment because there are far fewer risks associated and buying a property to let can be a more stable environment for your hard earned cash.
