Increases in the sales of used homes.
Whilst not all good news the figures showed a marked improvement in the sale of resale residential homes with an increase in people buying in Spain. The sale of used homes is now showing a small yearly accumulated increase of 0.7% and is the only area to do so.
New Builds
Sales of new builds continued to decline in numbers for the total year against 2013 but held steady in numbers against last month.
