Diana Morales' Marbella Real Estate Market Report 2011

For more than 20 years, chairman and president of DM Properties, Diana Morales, has been a keen observer of the changes taking place in Spain in general and Marbella in particular, especially within the property sector.

Every year we eagerly anticipate reading Diana Morales’ annual Marbella Real Estate Market Report.

This year it seemed to come to us a bit later than usual, I guess because Diana was watching the market carefully and no doubt checking how the land was lying before fully committing to her Report.

We have even waited a few weeks ourselves, for the whole ‘eurozone crisis’ to settle itself back down, before presenting her Report to our own blog and website visitors.

Regardless as ever, whenever it comes, Diana’s Report is always an excellent piece of work and, as every year, we have no hesitation in providing a link to it.

While DM Properties and VIVA of course operate in the same geographical area, our respective markets are, however, quite different…

So if it helps to add our own view to the Report, then we would say that we are greatly encouraged by the fact that the vast reservoir of client interest that both our website and HOT Properties Magazine have been building up over the past several years is turning more and more into new viewings of properties.

Indeed, our property sales revenues are 34% up on last year on a like-for-like basis across each 1,000 clients through the year. This simply means, that forgetting whether we have more clients, which we also do, our revenues are up, which again simply means that a lot more people are buying if they find the right property, with the right company and the right presentation.

Read Diana’s Report whatever your type or level of interest in the market. It’s far and away the best report that comes out each year. In the future, I hope to drop in some smaller blog notes on individual Market Facts that might be relevant, but as always, Diana provides the most outstanding overall review and study of the Marbella real estate market… and you really shouldn’t miss it.
