Although experts say the real estate sector is slowing down a bit, there is a fraction that does not stop growing and is in the spotlight of most investors: offices.
The creation of new companies and the business commitment in big cities such as Madrid or Barcelona as the main economic, financial and business capitals of our country, is being key so that more than 51% of the current real estate investment is in offices.
So much so that in the Spanish capital up to 490,000 m2 have been hired for offices during the first three quarters of 2019. In recent months, both cities have seen double the sale of premises and offices, reactivating the sector again. While in other years this type of real estate represented only 25-30% of sales, currently its rise is more than 50%.
Only in the community of Madrid, until before summer, more than 10,000 new mercantile companies have been registered, which implies an increase of 2.5% over the same period of the previous year. In the particular case of the city of Barcelona, despite the economic, political and social uncertainty of recent times, the city continues to grow at the business level creating and opening offices. With all this, the neighborhood commerce is being reborn, being able to offer businesses of proximity to the population, destined to the services sector, at the same time that moves them away from the large surfaces.
