The number of mortgages signed for the purchase of homes in Canary Islands was 1,289 in September, a 0.2% increase compared to the same month in 2024, when it was 1,287, according to data published this Thursday by the National Statistics Institute (INE).
In any case, the archipelago was the autonomous community where these operations increased the least from September to September, while in Spain they grew, overall, by an average of 12.2%, according to the latest Mortgage Statistics compiled by the INE.
This details that the capital lent for these operations in the islands rose, globally, to 192.37 million euros, nearly 30 million more than the 166.91 million from those signed a year ago.
The autonomous communities where mortgages signed from September to September increased the most were La Rioja (with 33.9% more), Region of Murcia (30.5%), and Cantabria (27.3%).
After the Canary Islands, the smallest increases were in Castilla y León (1.7%) and Andalusia (6.3%).
