Rural land is profitable despite external and uncontrollable conditioning factors. In recent years, moreover, its diversity of uses has extended beyond agriculture, as there are several options that can be considered on this type of land.
Innovation has reached rural land and a rural property is a great investment option. In Spain, according to the INE, there are already more than 17,000 rural properties. All of them have aroused the interest of national and international investors who are betting on assets that have a very high revaluation potential.
Gone are the days of farmhouses for agricultural use or livestock farms. Today, these types of properties are looking for profitability with a view to the future. For this reason, rustic land that is dedicated, among other proposals, to renewable energy or rural tourism is triumphing.
More and more people are looking for a quiet retreat, far from the noise and pollution of the cities, even if only for a few days. Rural tourism, therefore, is one of the most profitable options if you know how to choose the best rural property.
It is necessary to analyse well the location, communications and accesses or the proximity, for example, to a big city with all the necessary services. In addition, if the rural property is going to be used for accommodation, it is necessary to evaluate the Internet connection, among other variables that will add extra points to this rural tourism house.
Nowadays, rural properties are also becoming increasingly intelligent spaces. Technology and advances, such as home automation, have also reached nature. In this sense, country estates incorporating intelligent lighting systems or automated waste management are becoming commonplace.
This combination of innovation and technology is increasing the value of rustic properties and making them a great option for living in the peace and quiet of the countryside, but with the modernities of the 2.0 era. And if they are a hit with travellers and tourists, it means that they are also a hit with investors.
Because it should not be forgotten that the war in Ukraine, inflation and other macroeconomic aspects are making investors more cautious. In this sense, the real estate market is presented as a safe haven in which to make a profit. And rural properties, even more so.
