The CEO of FORCADELL, Ivan Vaqu\u00e9, analyzes the real estate sector forecasts for this new year in an interview with Econom\u00eda Digital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Although 2025 has only just begun, all signs indicate that, if projections are met, it will be a dynamic year with significant activity in the real estate sector<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

As the CEO of FORCADELL<\/a><\/strong> explains in this interview, 2025 is expected to be highly active<\/strong>, particularly in the residential segment<\/strong>, which is forecasted to achieve record-breaking transaction numbers and a strong boost<\/strong> for the sector. According to the Real Estate Market Report: Current Status and Perspectives 2024, prepared by FORCADELL and the University of Barcelona<\/a>, it is highly likely that transactions at the national level will surpass 750,000 homes<\/strong>, and may even exceed 800,000 units. Of this total, nearly 90% will involve pre-owned homes<\/strong>, solidifying their position as the main driver of the residential market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In his analysis, Vaqu\u00e9 also highlights that the commercial property market is projected to experience a significant revival<\/strong>, thanks to increased credit availability from financial institutions looking to improve their margins. This will enhance buyers’ purchasing power and stimulate transactions in key segments such as office spaces, retail properties, and logistics assets<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In summary, 2025 is shaping up to be a standout year for the sector, with a growing residential market and notable momentum in commercial assets<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Closing a Year of Contrasts<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

These forecasts come after the conclusion of a 2024 marked by contrasts<\/strong>, as noted by the CEO of FORCADELL. The year that just ended witnessed a first half where activity was impacted by restrictive monetary policies, high inflation, and a limited housing supply, which slowed down key segments of the market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

However, the second half of the year saw a notable recovery in several areas<\/strong>, driven by lower interest rates and increased access to credit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

A Sector of Significant Activity Also Facing Challenges<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Despite this expansive context<\/strong>, Ivan Vaqu\u00e9 emphasizes in this conversation with the economic outlet that the real estate sector will continue to face significant challenges that require innovative solutions and a collaborative approach.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

One of the main challenges is the imbalance between supply and demand in the housing market<\/strong>, especially in the rental segment. The limited availability of land, combined with rising construction costs, underscores the need for measures such as the creation of more affordable and public housing stock<\/strong>. In this sense, public-private collaboration <\/strong>is emerging as an essential element to achieve these goals effectively.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Additionally, another major challenge is integrating technology into the sector<\/strong> to adapt it to current needs. Technological transformation <\/strong>should not only streamline work processes but also contribute to improving sustainability, reducing the carbon footprint and construction waste, and optimizing property maintenance<\/strong>. Technologies such as Blockchain and artificial intelligence will play a key role in data management within the sector, providing transparency, efficiency, and precision in decision-making.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

These challenges, though complex, also represent significant opportunities to modernize the sector<\/strong>, make it more accessible, and align it with the social and environmental demands of the 21st century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In this interview, Ivan Vaqu\u00e9 also discusses other topics of interest for the real estate sector, such as the consulting market<\/strong> and its trends, the future of the data center segment<\/strong>, and the role of sustainability and ESG criteria in consultancy strategies<\/strong>, among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
