We analyse the trends"},"content":{"rendered":"

If you have been following the real estate market in Galicia for some time, you will have noticed that the rules of the game are changing. After a very dynamic closing of 2025, many of our clients in Mart\u00ednez Nogueira Real Estate Agency<\/strong> We are asked the same question: \u201cIs this a good time to buy or should I wait?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The short answer is that the market does not wait. Recent data indicate that Ourense<\/strong> (along with Pontevedra) is leading price rises in the region. Below, we look at the 3 key reasons why 2026 is shaping up to be a decisive year for buyers and investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. House prices: buying before the rise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The trend is clear: the value of the square metre in Ourense is on the rise. Unlike previous years where the market was stagnant, the reactivation of key areas and the improvement in connections (such as the AVE effect) have revalued the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waiting for \u201cfalling prices\u201d can be a risky strategy in this cycle. Buying now allows you to lock in an asset that is likely to be worth more at the end of the year, protecting your savings against inflation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. High profitability for investors (Rental)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your goal is to buy to rent, Ourense offers a golden opportunity right now. The demand for flats for rent in the city far exceeds supply<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means two things for the owner:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Reduced risk of vacancy:<\/strong>\u00a0It takes very little time to find qualified tenants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Interesting profitability:<\/strong>\u00a0The shortage of supply puts upward pressure on rental prices, offering very competitive return margins, especially in well-connected neighbourhoods or close to the university and hospital area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    3. Ourense as a refuge value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Faced with the volatility of other markets, bricks in our province continue to be a safe haven. Whether it is a first home in consolidated neighbourhoods such as A Ponte<\/strong> or an opportunity for reform in O Couto<\/strong> o Barrocanes<\/strong>, Real estate here offers a stability that few financial products can match today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Conclusion: Experience makes the difference<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    In a rising market, the best opportunities fly fast. Often, the most interesting properties are sold even before they are published on the major portals, thanks to our portfolio of waiting clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With more than 25 years of experience<\/strong> in Ourense, in Mart\u00ednez Nogueira Real Estate Agency<\/strong> we don't just sell flats; we advise on life and investment decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
