The demand for buying flats exceeds for the first time that of renting
In 2022, the demand to buy a home represents 50% of the market, compared to 38% looking for a rental. The remaining 12% search simultaneously in both markets. This is one of the main conclusions of the Fotocasa Research report 'Radiography of the housing market in 2021-2022' prepared by the real estate portal Fotocasa, for the fifth consecutive year, with the intention of making an exhaustive analysis of the situation of supply and demand in the real estate sector. In the case of Catalonia, the situation shows the most extreme features. According to access data to the real estate portal, 29% of Catalans are interacting in the real estate market, both in the sales and rental markets and both from the point of view of supply and demand. But that 29% represents a "drastic" decrease, according to Fotocasa, since August 2021 when 36% of Catalans were looking for a flat. But 29% corresponds to a global participation volume similar to before the pandemic.
