List of 3 large real estate investors in Spain

To give you a better idea of our list, we briefly introduce three companies that are included in our address database of the largest Spanish real estate buyers. Our team deals intensively with the respective markets and analyses the most important players in detail before we prepare our lists. In this way we ensure that the most relevant companies are really included in our overviews and that you don’t acquire outdated data.

1. Merlin Properties (Madrid) – focus on Spain & Portugal

The real estate investor Merlin Properties is based in Madrid. The company focuses on commercial properties in Spain and Portugal and is one of the largest listed companies in Spain. The portfolio includes office properties, retail properties and shopping centres, logistics properties and hotels. The company invests primarily in Madrid and Barcelona, but has assets throughout Spain and Portugal.

Update 2023: Spanish real estate investor Merlin Properties acquired one of the most iconic properties in Lisbon at the end of 2022 for approximately EUR 113 million; specifically, the Novobanco headquarters on Avenida da Liberdade. According to experts, it was even the biggest real estate deal in Portugal in the complete last year.

2. CORESTATE (Luxembourg) – focus on student housing, micro apartments & office

With CORESTATE , one of the largest European investors is also active in Spain. Although the company’s regional focus is on Germany, some high-profile purchases are also being made on the Iberian Peninsula. They include a student residence in Seville and activities in the co-living segment together with MEDICI LIVING.

3. ORES Socimi (Madrid) – focus on retail in Spain & Portugal

Our database contains not only large, globally active buyers, but also smaller specialized companies with a regional focus. A good example of this is ORES Socimi. This investor focuses entirely on retail properties and invests in shopping centers, retail properties and commercial properties for use in the retail segment (e.g. supermarkets). The company has been active on the market for 25 years and is one of the most important contacts in Spain in this asset class.

Where are the investors from ?

Naturally most Spanish real estate investors are headquartered in Spain. The investors are located in the major cities, for example, Madrid, Valencia or Barcelona. However, many foreign property investors are now also active in Spain. Multiple investors from London, Paris or Munich have already made investments on the Iberian peninsula in the past.

Our database of RE investors in Spain

Research Germany provides the most comprehensive database of Spanish real estate investors. Our overview is perfect for all players in the real estate industry who are looking for the right buyer for properties of different types. We have already helped numerous brokers, project developers, co-investors, consultants, developers and asset managers to acquire customers and partners in Spain.

Our well-researched list of the largest real estate investors in Spain is guaranteed to include companies that you do not yet have in your address database. The listed real estate buyers come partly from Spain and partly from abroad.

Property investors with international origins

Spain is one of the largest economies in the EU and has been attracting increasing numbers of investors from all over the world in recent years. For this reason, our database of the most important real estate buyers contains not only companies from Spain, but from many other countries. For example, professional real estate investors from the UK, Germany, France, Singapore, USA, China or Switzerland are included in the overview. Many of the companies listed are active throughout the country, with Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Bilbao and Mallorca being particularly popular with many buyers. Especially investors for hotels, resorts and holiday properties are highly interested in coastal regions like Costa Blanca, Costa del Sol or Costa Brava.

Asset class: residential, office, logistics, retail, care, hospitality, light industrial, debt

The real estate market can be divided into different asset classes, which are characterised by very different structures and characteristics. The team of Research Germany knows that specialized investors operate in the individual segments. To help you easily identify the right real estate buyer for your project, our overview contains several columns that show all relevant asset classes. With just one click you can filter by investment companies that invest in residential real estate, office real estate, retail and shopping centers, logistics or light industrial real estate, hotels and vacation properties or care properties. The largest companies are often active in several segments, while smaller companies often focus on individual areas.

Based on extensive research and deal monitoring in the market

How do we get to the data in our list of the most important real estate investors in Spain? The answer to this question is that we and our team conduct detailed market research and have a constant look at current deals. In this way we can find out who has bought which building and which co-investors may have been involved. Once we have found out the name of a relevant investor, we analyse their purchase profile and any other information we can find. We then summarize the research results for you in a clear and concise manner. It is also important to mention that all information is publicly available on the website or in the annual reports of the companies. So you don’t need to be afraid of data protection issues and can use our product with a clear conscience.

The list is part of our European dataset

We offer lists of real estate investors from different countries in Europe. In addition to the real estate investors Spain list, these include, for example, our overview of the largest real estate buyers in Germany or the database of the most important Swiss real estate buyers. All regional lists are excerpts from our comprehensive database of the most relevant real estate investors in Europe. We have closely examined the European real estate market and are now able to map more than 1200 investors. If you are interested in specific sections of our database, please do not hesitate to contact us. For example, a list of the largest buyers of logistics real estate in a specific region or a list of investors who are active throughout Europe would be conceivable. We look forward to receiving your message.

1 review for List of the 150 largest real estate investors Spain [2023 Update]

  1. Julian Long (verified owner)

    I received very swift response to my initial enquiries about the products and since purchase have found the lists to be extremely useful. As we work extensively across Spain (and Europe) having detailed lists of companies that we can then target as possible clients is really important. ResearchGermany have been able to provide this detail and we are very happy to recommend them to others.
