Houses with a terrace and a garden are, if anything, the most desired ones due to the health crisis we are going through. The confinement imposed by the alarm system in which we live, has led investors to the reconsideration of housing in Spain. These investors are now paying attention to some aspects which, previously, were not taken into account but that, currently, have become of special importance. It seems self-evident that everything is viewed in a different way when we are forced to stay at home day after day without being able to go out: space is valued much more and the need for feeling more free at home arises. According to experts on real estate, there is a change in the trend of the potential homebuyer. Until now, we had never spent so much time being locked up at home and this circumstance has made us reconsider some issues. This is the reason why open spaces have become specially important during these last weeks of our confinement. The mentality of the investor has changed to the point that a terrace and a garden has gone from being very appealing to being considered very necessary. This is the conclusion reached by experts. They have detected that the possible homebuyer thinks about a house not only as a place to rest but also as a space to work, living in peaceful coexistence during a long period.
