Comments on: Are House Prices In Barcelona Falling By 20%? http://yannicklaclau.com/2008/03/31/are-house-prices-in-barcelona-falling-by-20/ I'm an entrepreneur based in Barcelona, Spain. This is my personal blog.

Not so long ago I remember people demonstrating about how accomodation had priced itself out of a lot of people’s reach.

Having said that, I’m looking at properties in the Collserola – I’m in the Eixample now, and I rent a studio in the Jewish Quarter (long story – lack of space and a desire to paint). The combined saving on my flat and what I might get for the Eixample flat would still not be enough to rent a good property out there. As for buying… that’s another story.

I think the key is to look at affordability when it comes to making a purchase and don’t be seduced by any other factors.
