The Fuerteventura Chronicles: John Goldacre Talks Property Trends!
John Goldacre, the owner of Goldacre Estates in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands, shares insights about his background and the real estate market in the region. John recounts his journey from moving to the Canary Islands 25-26 years ago, initially working in Tenerife before relocating to Fuerteventura. He highlights his transition from corporate life to working for a local estate agent, eventually setting up his own company, Goldacre Estates, around 17 years ago. The agency offers a variety of real estate services, including sales, long-term rentals, and small-scale development projects. John emphasizes the unique charm of Fuerteventura, noting its relaxed lifestyle, beautiful beaches, and diverse, friendly community. He also mentions the island’s appeal to a wide range of European buyers, drawn by the sunny climate and safety. John discusses the current real estate market in Fuerteventura, noting a significant surge in demand, partly triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. This increase in interest has led to a shortage of available properties, which is now one of the biggest challenges for Goldacre Estates. Despite this, the company remains positive about the future, citing limited construction opportunities on the island as a factor that will continue to drive property prices upward. John also highlights the value for money that buyers can find in Fuerteventura compared to other regions in Spain and Europe. He underscores the importance of client satisfaction in their business ethos and the innovative strategies they employ, such as virtual property tours, to engage with clients remotely. Looking ahead, John is optimistic about the market's prospects in 2024 and beyond, driven by the island's inherent appeal and the company's dedicated approach to real estate services.
