What affects the cost of purchasing a new build property in the province of Toledo?

In general, the price per square meter of new build property depends on supply and demand in the province of Toledo. In particular, one element that influences and determines the final price is the location. The proximity to Madrid and good communication with the capital is a key factors in choosing a property in Toledo.

Therefore, some municipalities such as Illescas have a higher number of offers due to their proximity to the Madrid province and direct rail connection with it. Other external factors to consider are the population density of the municipality, the economic and labour situation, as well as foreign investment and tourism in the area.

Regarding the characteristics of the property, the orientation, square meters, materials used, and finishes contribute the most to the final price of the property. The extras are determined by common areas, services, and facilities such as outdoor courts, children's areas, or swimming pools.

If the province of Toledo is the chosen area to finally purchase a property, buying off-plan is one of the best options to obtain a discount. Alternatively, if this is not possible, purchasing in the first phases of construction can reduce the price per square meter by up to 20%.

According to the National Institute of Statistics (INE), in 2020, the sales of these new developments represented 1,462 transactions out of a total of 7,215 property purchases in the province. This represents 20.3%. In 2021, this percentage slightly decreased to 18.7%. Specifically, 1,793 new properties were purchased from the real estate offerings in Toledo, out of a total of 9,603 homes.

What is the importance of buying new construction flats versus second-hand houses in the province of Toledo?

After the economic crisis, the province of Toledo is on the rise in terms of new developments. The guarantee of a brand new home, the ability to make modifications prior to the delivery of keys, and the extra services provided represent major advantages over second-hand properties. The latter require partial or total renovations to come close to the features of new houses.

The biggest difference, in addition to materials and finishes, lies in the common areas and extras such as renewable energy systems (solar panels), swimming pools, centralized air conditioning installations, and outdoor sports courts or playgrounds. In addition, it is very common for new construction developments to include a garage and/or storage space in the final price of the home.
