LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 1 
Average property prices in the island’s 
capital of Eivissa averaged €2,922 per 
m² by end of June 2014, up from €2,736 
per m² at the end of 2013. As at the end 
of the half-year, average prices in Ibiza 
were €1,234 per m² above national 
averages. 
Overwhelmingly, prime residential market 
buyers over the past eighteen months in 
Ibiza were motivated by the desire for a 
holiday home/second property that they 
can visit throughout the year. There was 
also a small amount of private investment. 
The first two quarters of 2014 have 
seen the Ibiza prime residential market 
continue to perform strongly. There is 
a great deal more confidence amongst 
buyers - in particular international buyers 
- and this is reflected in the increasing 
number of transactions. 
The Balearic islands (which includes Ibiza) 
have seen an overall increase in sales 
activity in the past year, rising modestly 
each month. The number of transactions 
picked up substantially in May, indicating 
the start of the summer period of trading. 
Buyers tend to be younger than in other 
luxury markets across Northern Spain, 
usually aged in their 40s. 
Average rental prices in Ibiza’s capital 
of Eivissa averaged €12.67 per m² per 
month by the end of May 2014. 
Interest in Ibiza properties on the Lucas 
Fox website grew by 60% in the first 
half year of 2014 when compared with 
website visitors looking at Ibiza property 
for the same time period in 2013.

LUCAS FOX / MARESME REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 
Amanda Martí 
Director Lucas Fox Ibiza 
“In the first two quarters of 2014, the property market has been 
very active with lots of enquiries. Many clients have come to the 
island to view properties during the winter, and since March, we 
have been considerably busier than this time last year,” explains 
Amanda Martí, Director of Lucas Fox Ibiza. “Clients seem to be 
more certain of what they are looking for and are ready to buy. 
Demand for quality properties in the best locations still outstrips 
supply, so we are expecting some strong trading across the 
summer months.” 
Although still renowned as a party destination, Ibiza’s 
reputation and appeal has matured beyond the nightlife in 
recent years. It is now also recognized as an island paradise and 
tranquil getaway as well as an active sports and recreational 
playground.Beaches all around the island offer crystal clear 
waters and are surrounded by untouched natural wilderness. 
A golf course, yachting marinas, horse-riding and a full range of 
recreational activities are on offer in addition to the nightlife and 
excellent restaurants. 
With regular flight and ferry connections available to Barcelona 
and beyond, and an increased diversity of residents settling 
on the island bringing in new businesses and economic 
development, there are now more opportunities to live 
year-round on Ibiza. 
IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET: 
SUMMARY 
Ibiza continues to attract HNW 
international clients due to the unique 
lifestyle it offers. More people are 
choosing to relocate to the island due to 
its good schools (including international 
schools), spectacular properties and the 
excellent quality of life. The island now 
offers stronger internet connections (4G) 
and has increased flight connections 
throughout the whole year. 
“DEMAND FOR QUALITY PROPERTIES 
IN THE BEST LOCATIONS STILL 
OUTSTRIPS SUPPLY, SO WE ARE 
EXPECTING SOME STRONG TRADING 
ACROSS THE SUMMER MONTHS” 
A GOLF COURSE, YACHTING MARINAS, 
HORSE-RIDING AND A FULL RANGE 
OF RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES ARE ON 
OFFER IN ADDITION TO THE NIGHTLIFE 
AND EXCELLENT RESTAURANTS

IBIZA PROPERTY TRANSACTIONS 
Sales trading in the Balearic islands (which includes Ibiza) 
has shown a robust incremental increase in sales activity 
over the past year, rising modestly each month, with a 
more pronounced flurry of activity at the start of the year. 
Sales have again picked up in May, indicating the start of the 
summer period of trading. In the first five months of 2014 
(for which data is available at time of press), property trading 
across the Balearic islands averaged 798 sales per month, 
the majority in Ibiza. 
IBIZA PROPERTY SALES PRICES 
While national averages of property prices continue to decline, 
seeking the market bottom, average prices in Ibiza have risen 
for the first half of 2014. According to the two top property 
portals in Spain (Idealista and Fotocasa), prices in the island’s 
capital of Eivissa averaged €2,922 per m² by end of June, up 
from €2,736 per m² at the end of 2013. As at the end of the 
half-year, average prices in Ibiza were €1,234 per m² above 
national averages. 
IBIZA RENTAL MARKET PRICES 
While data has only recently become available for rental 
averages in Eivissa, they point to a strong upsurge in interest 
over the first half of 2014. Average rental prices in Eivissa 
averaged €12.67 per m² per month, by the end of 
May 2014. 
IBIZA PRIME MARKET PROPERTY 
Ibiza is seeing greater activity in the number of enquiries in 
the first half of 2014, and while this has not yet translated into 
increases in sales volumes, it is expected that summer will 
increase transactions for prime market properties above last 
year’s numbers.

LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 4 
Overwhelmingly, prime market buyers over the past eighteen 
months in Ibiza were motivated by the desire for a holiday 
home/second property that they can visit throughout the 
year. There was also a small amount of private investment. 
Buyers tend to be younger than in other luxury markets across 
Northern Spain, usually aged in their 40s. 
Ibiza prime properties averaged 350m² in size, with a land 
plot average of 10,054m², but this varied considerably across 
purchased properties from an interior size of 168 to 650m², 
and from no external space to land plots of 55,550m². 
As a result, it is difficult to calculate average prime market prices 
with such a varied stock, although properties sold in the first 
half of 2014 commanded over €3 million each, comprising 
both substantial villa properties and large land plots. 
FOREIGN INVESTMENT 
Airport passenger arrivals data is a strong indication of 
international interest in Ibiza, as almost all travelers to the island 
arrive from international destinations. In May 2014, the Baleares 
was the second most visited destination for all foreign travelers, 
accounting for one-fifth (22.6%) of all foreign tourists coming to 
Spain. The first five months of 2014 have seen an increase of 8% 
in international travel to Baleares, the majority to Ibiza. 
“The main international interest in Ibiza is still mostly for 
residential properties but the commercial market is waking up 
strongly,” shares Amanda Martí, Director of Lucas Fox Ibiza. 
“Demand has very much increased from the Asian market, 
namely from Korean and Chinese buyers, as well as American. 
There are still many Europeans, especially Dutch, but based 
primarily out of London.” 
Interest in Ibiza properties on the Lucas Fox website grew by 60% 
in the first half-year of 2014 when compared with website visitors 
looking at Ibiza property for the same time period in 2013. 
The majority of interest in prime market properties on Ibiza 
continues to come from the UK, where a quarter of all website 
visitors were residing. Traditional markets with an interest in 
Ibiza continued to dominate. The top ten included France, 
Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands from Northern 
Europe and Sweden from Scandinavia. Interest amongst buyers 
from the United States has jumped over 50% on levels of interest 
from the equivalent period in 2013, while outside of the top 
ten, interest from Brazil grew by 220% and website visitors from 
the Middle East grew 160%. Interest from Eastern Europeans, 
including Romania and Poland, jumped by around 200%.

LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 5 
Amanda Martí 
Director Lucas Fox Ibiza 
LUCAS FOX ANALYSIS AND PREDICTIONS 
“Buyers are mostly interested in second homes, priced from 
€800,000 villas to €2 million,” says Amanda Martí, Director 
of Lucas Fox Ibiza. “Traditional Ibicenco Fincas are becoming 
increasingly popular, though the favourite type of property 
remains minimalist, contemporary (preferably new) and turn-key 
with sea views (sunset views in particular are always a bonus). 
Refurbishment properties are also interesting to many, but are 
snapped up very quickly when reasonably priced. Apartments 
overlooking the marinas are also popular. 
Compared to last year, we are seeing more buyers looking for 
second homes for investment purposes. These tend to be clients 
in their mid-thirties buying to entertain their work colleagues or 
clients, and to show and enjoy the lifestyle the island has to offer. 
The most popular areas to invest in Ibiza are still the areas of 
San José, the marina and properties in Ibiza Old Town. The 
bigger estates, especially in the north, are also proving very 
interesting to clients who are looking for a larger investment and 
who cannot find what they desire in San José, or, even at the €2 
million-plus bracket, can get a lot more for their money in the 
north and choose to invest there. 
In the second half of 2014, we expect prices will start to rise very 
slowly, particularly for truly unique properties in prime locations.”

Ibiza Market Report Q1-Q2 2014

  • 1. WWW.LUCASFOX.COM LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 1 Average property prices in the island’s capital of Eivissa averaged €2,922 per m² by end of June 2014, up from €2,736 per m² at the end of 2013. As at the end of the half-year, average prices in Ibiza were €1,234 per m² above national averages. Overwhelmingly, prime residential market buyers over the past eighteen months in Ibiza were motivated by the desire for a holiday home/second property that they can visit throughout the year. There was also a small amount of private investment. The first two quarters of 2014 have seen the Ibiza prime residential market continue to perform strongly. There is a great deal more confidence amongst buyers - in particular international buyers - and this is reflected in the increasing number of transactions. The Balearic islands (which includes Ibiza) have seen an overall increase in sales activity in the past year, rising modestly each month. The number of transactions picked up substantially in May, indicating the start of the summer period of trading. Buyers tend to be younger than in other luxury markets across Northern Spain, usually aged in their 40s. Average rental prices in Ibiza’s capital of Eivissa averaged €12.67 per m² per month by the end of May 2014. Interest in Ibiza properties on the Lucas Fox website grew by 60% in the first half year of 2014 when compared with website visitors looking at Ibiza property for the same time period in 2013.

  • 2. WWW.LUCASFOX.COM 2 LUCAS FOX / MARESME REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 Amanda Martí Director Lucas Fox Ibiza “In the first two quarters of 2014, the property market has been very active with lots of enquiries. Many clients have come to the island to view properties during the winter, and since March, we have been considerably busier than this time last year,” explains Amanda Martí, Director of Lucas Fox Ibiza. “Clients seem to be more certain of what they are looking for and are ready to buy. Demand for quality properties in the best locations still outstrips supply, so we are expecting some strong trading across the summer months.” Although still renowned as a party destination, Ibiza’s reputation and appeal has matured beyond the nightlife in recent years. It is now also recognized as an island paradise and tranquil getaway as well as an active sports and recreational playground.Beaches all around the island offer crystal clear waters and are surrounded by untouched natural wilderness. A golf course, yachting marinas, horse-riding and a full range of recreational activities are on offer in addition to the nightlife and excellent restaurants. With regular flight and ferry connections available to Barcelona and beyond, and an increased diversity of residents settling on the island bringing in new businesses and economic development, there are now more opportunities to live year-round on Ibiza. IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET: SUMMARY Ibiza continues to attract HNW international clients due to the unique lifestyle it offers. More people are choosing to relocate to the island due to its good schools (including international schools), spectacular properties and the excellent quality of life. The island now offers stronger internet connections (4G) and has increased flight connections throughout the whole year. “DEMAND FOR QUALITY PROPERTIES IN THE BEST LOCATIONS STILL OUTSTRIPS SUPPLY, SO WE ARE EXPECTING SOME STRONG TRADING ACROSS THE SUMMER MONTHS” A GOLF COURSE, YACHTING MARINAS, HORSE-RIDING AND A FULL RANGE OF RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES ARE ON OFFER IN ADDITION TO THE NIGHTLIFE AND EXCELLENT RESTAURANTS
  • 3. WWW.LUCASFOX.COM LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 3 IBIZA PROPERTY TRANSACTIONS Sales trading in the Balearic islands (which includes Ibiza) has shown a robust incremental increase in sales activity over the past year, rising modestly each month, with a more pronounced flurry of activity at the start of the year. Sales have again picked up in May, indicating the start of the summer period of trading. In the first five months of 2014 (for which data is available at time of press), property trading across the Balearic islands averaged 798 sales per month, the majority in Ibiza. IBIZA PROPERTY SALES PRICES While national averages of property prices continue to decline, seeking the market bottom, average prices in Ibiza have risen for the first half of 2014. According to the two top property portals in Spain (Idealista and Fotocasa), prices in the island’s capital of Eivissa averaged €2,922 per m² by end of June, up from €2,736 per m² at the end of 2013. As at the end of the half-year, average prices in Ibiza were €1,234 per m² above national averages. IBIZA RENTAL MARKET PRICES While data has only recently become available for rental averages in Eivissa, they point to a strong upsurge in interest over the first half of 2014. Average rental prices in Eivissa averaged €12.67 per m² per month, by the end of May 2014. IBIZA PRIME MARKET PROPERTY Ibiza is seeing greater activity in the number of enquiries in the first half of 2014, and while this has not yet translated into increases in sales volumes, it is expected that summer will increase transactions for prime market properties above last year’s numbers. €2,736 END OF 2013 JUNE 2014 €2,922 PROPERTY SALES TRANSACTIONS ACROSS THE BALEARIC ISLANDS, INCLUDING IBIZA, PEAK 2007 & Q3 2012 - Q2 2014 Source: Ine.es 2013 JAN - MAY 2014 JAN - MAY 3,506 3,991 12.15% TRANSACTIONS TRANSACTIONS IBIZA AVERAGE SALES PRICES, Q3 2010 - Q2 2014 Source: Idealista.com and Fotocasa.es 2010 Elvissa average (Idealista) Elvissa average (Fotocasa) 2011 2012 2013 2014 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 Gava (Average between Fotocasa and Idealista Spanish average Peack Q1 2007 AVERAGE SALES PRICES AVERAGE SALES PRICES 2012 2013 2014 Spain (00s) Baleares (inc.

  • 4. WWW.LUCASFOX.COM LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 4 Overwhelmingly, prime market buyers over the past eighteen months in Ibiza were motivated by the desire for a holiday home/second property that they can visit throughout the year. There was also a small amount of private investment. Buyers tend to be younger than in other luxury markets across Northern Spain, usually aged in their 40s. Ibiza prime properties averaged 350m² in size, with a land plot average of 10,054m², but this varied considerably across purchased properties from an interior size of 168 to 650m², and from no external space to land plots of 55,550m². As a result, it is difficult to calculate average prime market prices with such a varied stock, although properties sold in the first half of 2014 commanded over €3 million each, comprising both substantial villa properties and large land plots. FOREIGN INVESTMENT Airport passenger arrivals data is a strong indication of international interest in Ibiza, as almost all travelers to the island arrive from international destinations. In May 2014, the Baleares was the second most visited destination for all foreign travelers, accounting for one-fifth (22.6%) of all foreign tourists coming to Spain. The first five months of 2014 have seen an increase of 8% in international travel to Baleares, the majority to Ibiza. “The main international interest in Ibiza is still mostly for residential properties but the commercial market is waking up strongly,” shares Amanda Martí, Director of Lucas Fox Ibiza. “Demand has very much increased from the Asian market, namely from Korean and Chinese buyers, as well as American. There are still many Europeans, especially Dutch, but based primarily out of London.” Interest in Ibiza properties on the Lucas Fox website grew by 60% in the first half-year of 2014 when compared with website visitors looking at Ibiza property for the same time period in 2013. The majority of interest in prime market properties on Ibiza continues to come from the UK, where a quarter of all website visitors were residing. Traditional markets with an interest in Ibiza continued to dominate. The top ten included France, Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands from Northern Europe and Sweden from Scandinavia. Interest amongst buyers from the United States has jumped over 50% on levels of interest from the equivalent period in 2013, while outside of the top ten, interest from Brazil grew by 220% and website visitors from the Middle East grew 160%. Interest from Eastern Europeans, including Romania and Poland, jumped by around 200%.

  • 5. WWW.LUCASFOX.COM LUCAS FOX / IBIZA REAL ESTATE MARKET Q1 & Q2 2014 5 Amanda Martí Director Lucas Fox Ibiza LUCAS FOX ANALYSIS AND PREDICTIONS “Buyers are mostly interested in second homes, priced from €800,000 villas to €2 million,” says Amanda Martí, Director of Lucas Fox Ibiza. “Traditional Ibicenco Fincas are becoming increasingly popular, though the favourite type of property remains minimalist, contemporary (preferably new) and turn-key with sea views (sunset views in particular are always a bonus). Refurbishment properties are also interesting to many, but are snapped up very quickly when reasonably priced. Apartments overlooking the marinas are also popular. Compared to last year, we are seeing more buyers looking for second homes for investment purposes. These tend to be clients in their mid-thirties buying to entertain their work colleagues or clients, and to show and enjoy the lifestyle the island has to offer. The most popular areas to invest in Ibiza are still the areas of San José, the marina and properties in Ibiza Old Town. The bigger estates, especially in the north, are also proving very interesting to clients who are looking for a larger investment and who cannot find what they desire in San José, or, even at the €2 million-plus bracket, can get a lot more for their money in the north and choose to invest there. In the second half of 2014, we expect prices will start to rise very slowly, particularly for truly unique properties in prime locations.” INTERNATIONAL VISITORS LOOKING AT IBIZA PRIME MARKET PROPERTIES ON THE LUCAS FOX WEBSITE,Q1 - Q2 2014 Source: Lucas Fox website analytics UK 26.7% FRANCE 11.3% NETHERLANDS 8% GERMANY SWITZERLAND BELGIUM ITALY SWEDEN UNITED STATES 6.6% OTHER 27% MORE INFORMATION: If you are interested in knowing more about the property market in this region, please contact Lucas Fox on: E: info@lucasfox.com T: +34 933 562 989
