Real estate investment in Europe rose 4% in 2011

According to the latest research from CBRE, the push to complete commercial real estate investment deals in Europe before the end of 2011 boosted annual investment turnover to €115 billion, representing a 4% increase when compared with 2010.

The fourth quarter of 2011 saw investment activity rise 15% compared with the previous quarter to €32 billion, despite the uncertain economic outlook.

The increase in real estate investment was particularly strong in France (+65%), the Nordics (+40%) and Benelux region (+42%). Property investment activity in Spain also more than doubled over Q3.

Now is a great time to buy Spanish property as the banks are offering repossessed residential units for sale at dramatically reduced prices.  Many banks are even offering buyers 100% financing and longer-term mortgages.
