A TOTAL of 318,055 homes were sold in Spain last year.
This was a market growth of a massive 11% according to INE.
Sales took a nosedive from more than 700,000 sales in 2007 to fewer than 260,000 in 2012 and had not peeked above 300,000 until this year since.
The numbers suggest the sector is finally recovering after a crash that hit in 2008 and lasted until well into 2013.
