<\/p>\n

The premium real estate segment is strengthening its position<\/h2>\n

Large-area homes, million-euro prices and services<\/a> typical of luxury hotels \u2013 this is the profile defining the boom in \u201cbranded residences\u201d in Spain. This premium real estate<\/a> segment is consolidating as one of the most dynamic in Southern Europe and is bringing the country to a leading position compared with other traditional destinations.<\/p>\n

Report data and market volume<\/h2>\n

This is stated in the Branded Residences Intelligence Report Spain & Portugal \u2013 the first specialized report that provides a detailed analysis of the evolution, characteristics, prospects, and market value of this type of residential real estate across the peninsula and archipelagos. According to the study, Spain and Portugal have 66 active projects and more than 4,100 units with a total value of \u20ac5.216 billion, which will exceed \u20ac6 billion after early-stage projects are completed.<\/p>\n

What are \u201cbranded residences\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cBranded residences\u201d are residential or tourism projects associated with an operator brand that provides services, manages assets, and guarantees a high level of service. This model originated in Anglo-Saxon markets and found fertile ground in Southern Europe, supported by international demand for premium housing in popular resort destinations.<\/p>\n

Spain and Portugal: different approaches<\/h2>\n

The report highlights a key difference between the two countries. While Portugal maintains a more tourism-oriented and mixed-use approach, Spain has developed a clearly residential model designed for long-term stays and for high-net-worth individuals who use these homes as a second, third, or even fourth residence.<\/p>\n

Product characteristics and pricing profile<\/h2>\n

This approach is reflected in the product itself. In Spain, the dominant type is an apartment<\/a> in a resort location, with an average area of 261.8 m2 and an average market value of \u20ac1.9 million. In Portugal, by contrast, smaller tourist apartments prevail, averaging 141.3 m2 and costing \u20ac1.07 million on average. Apartments have established themselves as the main property type in both markets, and the combined construction volume exceeds 700,000 sq m, indicating the maturity and consolidation of the segment.<\/p>\n

Project scale and value gap<\/h2>\n

At the same time, the scale of Spanish projects is significantly larger. The report notes that Spain has 116% more area in projects under construction and 129% more in completed projects than Portugal. In addition, the market value of finished apartments and penthouses in Spain exceeds the market value in Portugal by more than 50%, while in the villa<\/a> segment both countries show similar figures. In projects still at the development stage, the gap widens to 70%.<\/p>\n

Operating model and demand geography<\/h2>\n

From an operational perspective, the co-located format predominates, where residences share a location and services with hotels or resorts. In Spain, it accounts for 52.6% of projects, compared with 75% in Portugal, reinforcing the link between luxury service and high-end housing.<\/p>\n

The segment\u2019s growth also shows strong geographical concentration. In Spain, the main \u201cbranded residences\u201d hub is the province of M\u00e1laga<\/a> (61.39% of the market), while in Portugal this role is played by the Faro region (55.63%).<\/p>\n

Warning about incorrect use of the term<\/h2>\n

Finally, the report contains a warning about the incorrect use of the term \u201cbranded residences\u201d for projects that do not meet the model\u2019s core requirements \u2013 such as having an operator brand, integrated services, and professional management. According to the study, this practice creates confusion in the market and makes it harder for investors and buyers to correctly assess this type of asset.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
