Barcelona, Spain. Info in Areas.

Carlos Bautista
Posted

Hello Everyone, 

I am Carlos and I have just discovered about real estate investment. I am currently renting here in Barcelona city. Me and my partner decided that we want to relocate and buy a property. Instead of renting high price here in the center. 

My plan is to buy a property where will be living and then when we get settled i want to start and invest already in rental properties as well. 

Does anyone know of good areas near Barcelona to live in? preferably with good commute transportation. 

i have been searching in the internet most results are in badalona and santa coloma, I have visited badalona but just once don´t know that much and as for santa coloma dont really know anything about it. 

I am also searching maybe more outside barcelona. I do not know because it has been years i have been living in barcelona area as an expat. Barcelona center is expensive already to buy a property. 

Thank you.

@Carlos Bautista, it depends a lot on your preferences/strategy.

Do you have a clear idea of what your budget will be, how far away from Barcelona you would like to live, with what characteristics you will feel most comfortable, etc. 

Badalona could be a good idea if you are searching a location close to Barcelona and reachable with metro, or for Tarragona the same story a bit further with train. Also Sant Cugat is a very pleasant place.
