Spanish real estate has the highest yields vs many European Cities. More and more people are beginning to realize that they not only can but should, invest in real estate and contract professionals to manage their households. Our economy is moving increasingly onto service-based platforms.
More real estate agents are hired by people eager to turn over the management of investments in their private or commercial properties to someone they can trust. And the profession itself becomes much more accessible and standardized.
The professional real estate specialist, both for private and commercial properties, requires a wide range of skills and know-how to provide the high-end service that investors are looking for.
The real estate sector is changing daily: new types of both, private and commercial properties, are appearing (co-working, co-building, co-living, co-housing, and networking). This is the social and labor tendency.
Spain is the sweet spot for investment in real estate, both in private and commercial properties. Barcelona and Madrid are the 5th and 8th most expensive European cities in terms of price/m2. Madrid has the highest rental yield in Europe and Barcelona is the 4th in Europe with the highest yield according to Deloitte.
The main teaching language is English. The study plan includes an intensive foreign language study module to choose from Spanish for foreigners, French or Russian. After the theoretical modules are completed or simultaneously with it, all students have to complete an internship period in one of the companies in the sector in Spain or abroad. The theoretical part takes place in our school located in Barcelona or Valencia, Spain.
During the program, each student will have the opportunity to actively engage in the business world through an in-company internship. With a minimum of 240 hours of practical work, the compulsory internship will contribute positively to the student’s experience and professional profile.
