2021 ends on a hopeful and optimistic note for the Spanish economy and the real-estate sector in spite of the reappearance of new Covid variants and outbreaks, as it hasn’t yet been eradicated. Among the main lines marking the economic landscape and the different segments in the real-estate market, it is worth mentioning:
Macroeconomic environment
Previsiones de crecimiento del PIB del 7%, nuestras estimaciones apuntaban a rangos próximos al 5,5%. La demanda se resiente en confianza de los consumidores y en una subida continuada de los precios (IPC) y de los costes de materiales. La oferta, consecuencia de la situación sanitaria, se ve afectada en prácticamente todos los sectores productivos.

Residential Segment
Esta área mantendrá la tendencia de crecimiento iniciada en 2021 con un aumento de promociones de obra nueva y salida al mercado de las promociones en curso iniciadas en 2021. El mercado del alquilar será un gran protagonista en cualquiera de sus afecciones, y tomará protagonismo la sostenibilidad en las viviendas.

Logistics/Industrial Segment
This segment seems to never peak. Despite all the properties under construction in the major markets, like Madrid and Barcelona, demand continues to be far higher than the current supply, given the lack of product suited to e-commerce and last-mile distribution. The interest in plots of land in Industrial Estates with obsolete product and plots under development will be the target in 2022.
Office Segment
Greater interest in well-located prime areas such as 22@, as shown by the yield compression, with 3.25% in Madrid and 3.5% in Barcelona overall.
Retail Segment
It remains appealing because of supermarkets, as proved by recent major transactions. Caution is still shown towards street-level premises and shopping centres, with greater interest in High Street premises and retail parks.
Hotel Segment
This segment is again experiencing a remarkable level of uncertainty with the spread of the Omicron variant, dragging down hotel profits in both cities and holiday destinations or the seaside. The outstanding level of professionals managing hotels in our country provides them with an exemplary resilience.
Gloval’s Vision
For this month’s GLOVAL’s Vision, we tackle an important topic which is the new Covered Bonds market under Spanish Royal Decree Law 24/2021. This Royal Decree, specifically Title II, Chapter 4, Articles 16 to 18, sets forth the valuation of assets under coverage, where Surveyors authorised by the Bank of Spain (i.e. GLOVAL), will be the firms assigned to conduct annual valuations.
