So, what is it that
makes the Tenerife
property market so strong and makes property
on the island such an excellent investment? The Canary
Islands in general boast a
geographical position that means they enjoy almost constant all
year round good
weather.
Tenerife is actually the largest of the seven islands that make up this
Spanish owned archipelago but it is not the most populated. This island
boasts the highest point in the whole of Spain, that of Mount Teide which
is also the worlds 3rd largest volcano, but don't worry
and contrary to rumours - it is dormant! This volcano dominating
the centre of the island combined with the trade winds and the weather
have created a variety of vastly different and beautiful micro climates
around the island. In fact not only is it one of the few places
left on earth that you will find laurel and pine forests left over
from millions of years ago but Tenerife is also one of only a handful
of places
in the world that you can find such a wealth of climates and conditions
so close together. This means that for tourists and residents alike
there is an area in Tenerife that you won't be able to help falling
in
love with.
With the arrival of the cheap package holiday and flight times
from most UK airports of under 5 hours, meaning no jet lag, Tenerife
attracts
over 3 million visitors every year, many of which are repeat visitors. Tenerife
actually attracts more repeat visitors than any other European holiday
destination which just goes to show just how many people fall in love
with island and the way of life here.
There is a massive expat community in Tenerife and therefore moving
to the island is not such a huge jolt and if you are that way inclined
there are areas where the British community is so strong that you can
still feel you were in the UK except with the added bonus of much
improved weather conditions. At the other extreme if you want to
feel like you are actually abroad there are areas of Spanish communities
where you would need to speak at least the basics of the language to
get by. However, there are many places where the two cultures
meet and blend easily, with typical English bars offering
fried breakfast and pints for a Euro or two sitting comfortably next
to traditional Spanish tapas bars. Fantastic for helping make
you feel right at home!
With all these tourists flocking to the island every year and
all the people relocating to Tenerife permanently, the demand for good
accommodation is as constant as the good weather. With no off-season
to speak of, a property purchased in Tenerife for rental purposes
can easily give you an income all year round. If you are interested
