According to the latest figures - provided by the “Real Estate, Hospitality and Construction Capital Confidence Barometer" - Spain is now the ninth most popular country in the world that is considered most attractive to investors looking to make any acquisition in the coming months - within the real estate and construction sectors. To achieve this, Spain has amazingly climbed seven places recently on the ladder to now stand amongst the top ten countries of greatest interest to investors, behind only the United States; the UK; India; China; Canada; the United Arab Emirates; Germany and Sweden. This highlights Spain's favourable evolution in the rankings, despite all the international uncertainties that are affecting optimism over the world economy, and undermining confidence in the capital markets. In arriving at this prestigious position, Spain has now overtaken such countries as France; Italy; Cyprus; Egypt; Saudi Arabia; Indonesia; Argentina and Australia. 

At the moment, therefore, with Spanish Properties still representing superb value for money (although gradual price rises indicate the current increased demand), there is a superb opportunity for investment in Spanish homes and holiday properties.
