Statistics have shown that US investors in Spanish property have gone up by a quarter, as Spain becomes an ever-more popular destination for expats from America as well as Europe. This increase comes after the surprising results of the latest presidential election, naming the real estate mogul Donald Trump as the new President-elect.
