For the second consecutive year, yesterday we had the pleasure of attending the leading event for the residential real estate sector in the Balearic Islands as co-sponsors. Organised by El Económico and the Borbalán media agency, Mallorca Real Estate Summit brought together all the companies in the sector at Castillo Hotel Son Vida.
The sector's most pressing matters were discussed in the morning session, ranging from the latest real estate market trends to the challenges that we are currently facing in the Balearic Islands, including the approval of a new land-use plan, the renovation of the Paseo Marítimo, the construction of a tramway that will connect the whole bay area, the renovation of certain neighbourhoods, the rising cost of building materials, the upcoming elections and, more particularly, the lack of affordable housing.
All the attendees had the opportunity to listen to some of the most prestigious speakers in the real estate, construction, investments, architecture and interior design industries, such as Carme Pinós (National Architecture Award), José Hilá (Mayor of Palma) and Francina Armengol (President of the Regional Government of the Balearic Islands).
After the presentations, all the firms were able to exchange views during the Networking lunch held at the Castillo Hotel Son Vida.
As we already commented last year, the Mallorca Real Estate Summit is a much-needed event given the relevance of the matters presented and debated every year, and the importance of the fact that companies and leading personalities in the residential real estate sector in the Balearic Islands have a forum to meet and prepare new strategies as well as to find synergies.
To facilitate the attendance for all those professionals in the sector who wish to do so, both locally and internationally, the event is always streamed, in Spanish and in English.
