According to a report developed by the Claro Sol Facility Services Group, the business that generates the maintenance and conservation of empty buildings in Spain could exceed US $ 7,000 million, not including surveillance and security costs.
In this way, a way out is glimpsed for the real estate sector that little or nothing plans to build new homes in the immediate future.
As detailed in the study, it is based on an estimated five million empty homes in the Iberian country, including used but unoccupied buildings, new constructions that are still empty and buildings for tourist use that are without visitors.
There is a high tendency to outsource all kinds of services by real estate agencies and banks for the preventive and corrective maintenance of this type of property.
Thus, this outsourcing of services allows homeowners to save between 15% and 30% of the costs of management and maintenance of buildings.
To know the exact number, official, of empty buildings you must wait for the completion of the new census that is still in process. However, according to the latest statistics a total of 3,091,596 homes are empty.
