The report also found that the majority of buyers wanted a three-bedroom villa; with apartments the second most popular type of property. 55% of those who enquired wanted a property with a pool.
Alicante and the Costa Blancaremain the favorite locations for foreign property hunters, accounting for nearly 35% of enquiries - according to Kyero.com's findings - while Malaga in the Costa del Solfollowed behind with 14.4%.
Commenting on the results, Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Manager at Taylor Wimpey España said: “"The Kyero.com report provides an interesting insight into what buyers want from Spanish property. In 2012 it is important to look at trends in buyer behaviour and the interest generated regarding Spanish property to identify how to grab the attention of this year's property buyers.”
