20 14 European immigration?

20 14 development of home ownership in Europe;

Let's start with Spain.

Spain's housing prices have plummeted in the past two years, and international investors are waiting for the bottom of Spain, especially China investors who are eyeing up, and they are full of expectations for Spain. However, while the Chinese are still waiting for the best opportunity to bargain-hunting, the Russians and the British have already started to bargain-hunting.

According to the statistics of the Bank of Spain, in 20 12, the total value of real estate purchased by foreigners in Spain increased by 17%, reaching 5.54 billion euros, the best record since 2004. The highest record was in 2003, when overseas investors bought 7 billion euros of Spanish real estate. After four years of economic crisis, the total amount of Spanish real estate purchased by overseas capital has increased, which is a positive signal for investors.

With the entry of overseas capital, the Spanish housing market will soon pick up. This is very dangerous for wait-and-see investors, because they didn't win the first prize. It is in this context that the Spanish government has redefined the policy of buying a house and sending it to live: 500,000 euros of real estate and 2 million euros of government bonds can immigrate to Spain, which is another big temptation for China investors.

Then Portugal.

Portugal is also a 500,000 euro housing immigrant. Compared with Spain, which implemented the policy only this year, Portugal introduced this policy as early as 20 12: citizens of non-EU countries can obtain the right of abode in Portugal as long as the total value reaches 500,000 euros, and they can apply for permanent residence five years later. Within five years after obtaining the right of abode, investors are required to live for at least seven days in the first year and at least 14 days in the next two years.

Portugal's real estate investment has also grown continuously since 20 12, as shown in the following figure:

According to insiders, since 2000, Portugal's (green curve) real estate investment has been declining, close to the bottom, but the downward trend is relatively stable. What does this mean? It is very important that the relevant policies of Portuguese real estate are continuous and consistent, which is more practical from the perspective of investment.
