POLL: Which type of property are you most likely to choose as a result of the COVID-19 health crisis?
Thursday, April 23, 2020 @ 6:18 PM

Gardens or on everyone's mind at the moment, especially those who don't have one. Once the quarantine is over, gardens, terraces and balconies may be less urgent as occupants will then be able to go outside again and catch some fresh air and sunshine – but if this situation ever happens again, having a private outdoor space is likely to make it far less of an ordeal.

So, has this health crisis changed the way you'll choose your future residence, be it in Spain or any other country?

Residents on urbanisations or in apartment blocks are not allowed to use communal facilities such as swimming pools, gardens or terraces – only exits and entrances – meaning balconies have become hugely important for the latter, and private courtyards, gardens and pools for the former. Ultimately having a garden is to be able to do exercise and stretch your legs may be a decisive factor.

Filters on searches for properties with outdoor spaces, in general, have been applied 40% more than usual, although homes with gardens appear 128% more often than those with terraces or balconies, according to data from property portals across the board.

This begs the question... if you are looking to buy or rent in the future, how are you thinking?

No one seems to write about the extremely high taxes, grossly high; on selling property in Spain

We have a self contained patio garden with pool and Jacuzzi on a residential estate and feel much safer there than anywhere else in the world right now.

Luckily we have a 6000sq m plot with a good wall round it out in the campo. I would not want anything else.
