Spain faces a shortage of nursing homes: the country could face up to €25 billion in investment in the coming years.

The growing elderly population in Spain means that the demand for places in nursing homes and medical centers will only increase. It's already clear: the country needs to expand its network of such facilities, and this opens up significant investment opportunities—in Spain alone, this could amount to between €15 and €25 billion.

Why is this important? The number of elderly people is growing every year—we're living longer, and that's a good thing. But to ensure everyone has access to decent care, the country needs more places in nursing homes. Spain currently has approximately 407,000 beds, but by 2040, it will need approximately 632,000—a 55% increase.

The situation in Europe: the picture is similar in other countries.

France needs to invest €35–55 billion to increase its nursing home capacity by 53%.

Germany—€30–45 billion (an increase of 34%). Italy will need less—approximately €5–10 billion—but its bed capacity will also increase more modestly, by about 36%.

Investments have already begun to arrive. Experts say that housing and medical centers for the elderly are currently one of the most promising real estate sectors. In Spain, transactions in this sector already account for approximately 2.1% of the market, and this figure is growing. According to experts, the yield here is higher than in many other real estate sectors: around 5.7%, which attracts investors.

If the government and investors continue to develop nursing homes and medical centers, it will be easier for seniors to find comfortable housing and decent care.

Investment news is a sign that the country is preparing for the future. And we hope that very soon such facilities will become more accessible and closer to all residents—both in large cities and in the regions. https://www.ejeprime.com
