<\/p>\nSpain will become the country of Western Europe with a maximum property price growth rate in 2020. In addition, it will continue to remain one of the European countries with the highest unemployment rate.<\/p>\n
According to the Moody’s research, which includes the\u00a0economic outlook for the Western Europe for 2020, the Spanish property values will grow by 5.5% in the next 12 months. This is the highest growth rate\u00a0among 8 countries analyzed by Moody’s. In addition, these figures significantly exceed those announced by Moody’s for Spain a few months ago \u2013 within 2 – 3%.<\/p>\n
In second place after Spain in terms of house price growth are Ireland and the Netherlands with a a\u00a0rate of\u00a04,5%\u00a0growth. In third place are Germany and Portugal (4%). In fourth place is France (2.5%), y in fifth place is the United Kingdom (0.7%).<\/p>\n
According to this Moody’s research, in 2020 Spain will continue to remain the second EU country with a maximum unemployment rate after Greece. However, compared with 2019, the number of unemployed will decrease slightly \u2013 14.1% in 2019 versus 13.4% in 2020. The expected unemployment rate will also be high in Italy and France \u2013 10% and 8.3%, respectively. In Germany and the Netherlands, the unemployment rate is predicted to be 4% in 2020, in the UK \u2013 4.1%, in Ireland \u2013 5%, in Portugal \u2013 6%.<\/p>\n

With regard to economic growth, Spain will maintain good position in the ranking, although it will slow down. According to Moody’s economic outlook, in 2020 Spain\u2019s GDP will grow by 2%. Ireland will become the leader among the analyzed countries with economic growth rate of 3.2%. Portugal will be in third place with 1.7%. The economic growth rate in Netherlands and France is predicted to be 1.4% in 2020, and in Germany and the UK \u2013 1%. Italy takes the last position with an economic growth rate of less than 0.5%.<\/p>\n
Moody’s estimates the outlook for Spanish market for 2020 (including price increases) as positive. The Moody’s experts ensure that Spain now is much better prepared for a hypothetical crisis than ten years ago. For example, the criteria for issuing mortgages have become much more stringent, the effort rate has improved significantly, the families have reduced significantly the mortgage debt, and fixed-rate mortgages are gaining more and more weight in the market.<\/p>\n
At the same time, Moody’s warns of a possible reduction of mortgage loans provided by Spanish banks, as well as a possible change of the\u00a0LTV \u2013 loan-to-value ratio (the ratio of the amount of the requested loan to the value of collateral).
