The moment of acquiring real estate is always very exciting, and if this property is located in another country and is acquired for permanent residence, then the choice of a property should be approached with all responsibility. The Spanish real estate market is rich in a variety of types of housing: from low-budget apartments in the old fund, located in the rural outback or on the outskirts of cities, to luxury villas on the sea coast or in the capital. Most buyers, as a rule, choose something in between. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to townhouses in Spain.
Townhouses in Spain are an excellent solution for those who have spacious rooms, balconies, terraces and their own courtyard among other criteria for choosing their home. Townhouses are rarely one-story, as it is normally a two- or three-story house with a large area and modern finishes. The townhouse is a component of a number of similar structures. In most cases, it is a part of a community that has its own rules and regulations. And all property owners must comply with them, including financial participation in maintenance.
Having shared amenities and shared locations has its merits. The common recreation area, garden, swimming pool, sports and playgrounds require investment for their maintenance. Such costs are usually covered by monthly or annual payments made by the owners of townhouses. These funds also go to the maintenance of general communications and the security system.
Comparing a townhouse and a private house, the investor will take into account his own preferences and financial situation. A house will be chosen by those for whom the main argument is not the price, but the quality of the property. The house will also be more attractive for investors who want to receive income from the rental of real estate. Buyers who lead a secluded lifestyle and prefer to have their own amenities will also buy a villa. A townhouse will be chosen by those who prefer relatively inexpensive housing and having common amenities is also acceptable for them.
Why you should opt for a townhouse
Townhouses in Spain can be purchased in any province. Each area has its own advantages: in large cities there are many locations where masterpieces of world culture and architecture are concentrated, smaller cities are famous for their national flavor and rich cuisine, resorts on the sea coast are known for magnificent beaches and plenty of entertainment, and small villages will provide you with comfort and hospitality of local residents. Especially popular are the Costa Blanca, Costa del Sol, Barcelona and Valencia.
Experts note the following advantages of owning a townhouse:
1. The price of a townhouse depends on its location and characteristics, but it will definitely be lower than the price of a private house.
2. Modern amenities require attention and certain costs, both financial and physical. Having bought a house with a private pool, you will constantly have to maintain it. This also applies to owning a tennis court, a garden or just a lawn. The community in which the townhouse is located will take care of these, and all you need is timely financial participation.
3. Townhouses are preferable to apartments. More and more young families and older people are choosing townhouses because of their spacious premises, their own plot of land and other amenities that are not available in high-rise residential complexes. When relaxing on a sun lounger on the lawn near your own home, you will have no doubts that you have made the right choice in favor of a townhouse.
4. Compared to a high-rise building, a townhouse will provide you with a certain amount of privacy. You will not have neighbors above and below, which reduces the noise level. You will have your own garage and a small plot of land. But at the same time, due to the fact that the neighboring townhouse is located right behind your wall, you will not experience loneliness. In most cases, friendly relations and mutual assistance are established between neighbors.
5. The community can provide you with amenities that not every luxury villa owner has. For example, a golf course, a tennis court, a cinema hall, a hall for receiving guests and holding holidays, etc.
6. If you buy real estate for subsequent rental, then it is the townhouses in Spain that are in high demand in the real estate rental market. Therefore, the construction of new townhouses today is carried out at a high pace.
So, among the many types of real estate for sale, it is the townhouses in Spain that have undeniable advantages and are worthy of your attention.
