Ever since the late King Fahd decided to build a complex of five palaces and a number of mansions on the exclusive Golden Mile during the 1980s, Marbella’s image has been associated with the
excesses of the Saudis.
Fahd’s building spree followed a successful visit to the ritzy Incosol Hotel In 1979 when he was still Crown Prince, prompting him to choose this corner of Andalusia over the South of France for his summer residence.
But while his presence and that of his extraordinarily extravagant entourage might have made the biggest splash, his Kuwaiti neighbors had already blazed the trail, investing their petrodollars in property and starting a love affair with Marbella that has lasted 40 years.

Eight years after Spain’s property market crashed, house sales continue to increase, with a three-year high registered in June as some 36,856 homes changed hands, up 19.5% from the same
month in June 2015.
Building on the growth seen in April and May, sales for the first half of 2016 were the best since 2010.
However, growth is largely restricted to five major cities and their surrounding areas: Madrid, Barcelona, Alicante, Malaga and Valencia. Total sales for the first half of the year were 207,593.
Residential construction is partly driven by foreign investment, which is pouring into developments in Madrid and Barcelona; a jump in building permits points to more growth to come. Construction and real estate accounted for more than a third of the nearly €22 billion ($24 billion) of foreign investment in Spain in 2015, Economy Ministry data shows.

Is a weak pound and the uncertainty accompanying the Brexit vote having or likely to have an impact on the British demand for property in Spain?
While demand for property has been growing since 2013, a reversal is anticipated given that the market for UK buyers is driven by the strength of sterling.
It is also expected that the buying pond for British owners wishing to sell and return to the UK may also evaporate somewhat in the short term.
However this is not a view shared by those on the ground. Gary Oliver, sales director of Remax property agents, thinks not.
“We do expect some buyers may hold off to see what the coming weeks and months will bring but with little long term impact,” he says.
