Cheap Flights Boost Majorca Real Estate Market

Spain's Balearic Islands of Majorca and Menorca are very popular award-winning holiday destinations.

A mere hop, skip and a jump from France and Spain, Majorca is now even more easily accessible. EasyJet now offers less expensive, more frequent flights from nearly anywhere in Europe to Majorca. EasyJet, officially known as EasyJet Airline Company Limited, is based at the London Luton Airport.

More flights to the island per week also make it more realistic for Brits and other Europeans to purchase real estate on Majorca. Many Brits enjoy the atmosphere of the Balearic Islands so much that they visit several times per year.

One of Hollywood's favorite couples, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, own a holiday home in the village of Deia. Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, Boris Becker and Claudia Schiffer also own homes on Majorca.

Waterfront property owners understand their property's value. For several years there has been a ban on any type of construction within 25 meters of the coast. Those who already own beachfront property know this means if they decide to sell, they will have the ability to command a very high price. Beachfront homeowners know they're living in a potential gold mine.
