Las Palmas property 2021: Expert analysis from top-selling Gran Canaria estate agent Laura Leyshon

After the events of 2020 it feels like folly to write a guide to the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria property market for 2021: So much in Gran Canaria depends on the speed of the vaccine rollout and the return of tourism.

But look forward we must because the end of the Covid-crisis is within reach. Covid or no Covid, Gran Canaria remains a wonderful place to live and own property. [Read more…]

Gran Canaria Property: Coronavirus Market Update

April 21, 2020 by Laura Leyshon

At the end of 2019, before the world realised how dangerous the Coronavirus was, I wrote a Gran Canaria property guide for 2020. I predicted a slight drop in property prices on the island.

The market showed signs of a slowdown with February sales figures across Spain down 6% year-on-year.

However, all bets and predictions were off once the Coronavirus pandemic took hold. We are now in uncharted territory and won’t know the full effect on Gran Canaria property for some time. [Read more…]

The Changing Market For A One Bedroom Las Palmas Apartment

November 26, 2019 by Laura Leyshon

OLder local couples looking to downsize are now the main buyers of one-bedroom Las Palmas apartments

The one-bedroom apartment is a good seller in Las Palmas. In recent years the mix of people viewing one-beds has been predictable. Lots of holiday rental investors, some non-residents, and a few first-time buyers and downsizers. Most were bought by the investors.

However, holiday rental investors have stepped back from one-bedroom apartments as there are plenty on the portals. Instead, they buy larger apartments and top floor properties with large terraces.

The people who now view and buy one-bedroom apartments are mainly older local couples looking to downsize. [Read more…]

Las Palmas Property 2020: Local Market Insight

November 25, 2019 by Laura Leyshon

Expert local insight into the Las Palmas property market in 2020; by top-selling Gran Canaria estate agent Laura Leyshon.

Every year, I write a guide to the current state of the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria property market and give my predictions for the next 12 months. Here’s the Las Palmas property 2020 report.

It’s a tricky job this year because there are so many factors that could affect property prices. Mostly, it has to be said, in a negative way.

On a local scale we have a deflating touristic bubble in Gran Canaria, the collapse of Thomas Cook, a decline in holiday rental investment and a big increase in new-build property. [Read more…]

Selling In Gran Canaria: Exclusivity Means You Only Get Pestered By One Agent

November 6, 2018 by Laura Leyshon

You only get pestered by the estate agent you choose, rather than by lots of estate agents you've never spoken to before.

I’ve written before about the benefits of using one estate agent to handle the sale of your Gran Canaria property via an exclusive contract.

But somehow, I’ve never managed to explain it in a few words (until now).

Exclusivity means…

  • You only get pestered by the estate agent you choose, rather than by lots of people you don’t know.
  • All the island’s agents work to sell your property, but your agent is in charge of the whole process; marketing, viewings, paperwork, contracts, etc.
  • Your chosen agent is there to look after your interests.

An exclusive contract with a good Gran Canaria agent means that you have complete control over the selling process.

Working exclusively with a good agent gives you the best possible chance of selling promptly and at the best possible price.

I’m Laura Leyshon and I’m one of Gran Canaria’s top-selling estate agents. If you have a property to sell in Gran Canaria, please feel free to contact me for a free appraisal and valuation.
