Property Sales Prices in Spain
January 2nd, 2008
A customer from Wiltshire asks
“I have found the kyero website to be an excellent source of information on Spanish property. One thing that I haven’t been able to find though has been a source of information that tells a potential buyer of the actual price a property has been sold for rather than just asking price. We now have various sources that provide this information in the UK. Is such information available to the ordinary person or do you have plans to include it on the kyero site at all?”
Kyero response
It’s a great question – and we, just like everyone else wish that there was a better answer. A while ago we wrote this article about the problem.
The bottom line is that the Ministry of Housing does have access to this information but they choose not to make it publicly available.
Even the information they do have is inaccurate due to a percentage of the sale price of a property not being declared or notarised.
This is the main reason that we publish the Kyero.com Spanish House Price Index (it will be updated later today). It’s far from perfect, but it is a step in the right direction.
