Plots in Murcia - buy, sell or rent easily

Where to buy land in Murcia

The municipalities with the cheapest urban plots for sale are Cieza and Jumilla. Prices rise on the coast and in the metropolitan areas of Lorca and Murcia. The same applies to developable land, which is concentrated mostly along the coast. Meanwhile, the cheapest land for sale in the province of Murcia is found in the municipalities of Lorca, Mazarrón, Abarán and Jumilla.

The average value of rustic estates is among the highest in Spain. Rustic estates for sale are in great demand, since the terrain, the climate and the fertility of the soil favour above all farming in a region that leads in exports.

In continuous development

The Region of Murcia lies in the south-east of the peninsula and covers more than 1,000,000 hectares, over 2% of Spain's territory. It is an autonomous community with rugged geography, where mountain, plain and coastal landscapes can be distinguished. Its large area and the presence of the Mediterranean Sea also create a certain diversity in climate and rainfall, which shape the use of the land and the way of life in the region.

Urban land covers more than 25,000 hectares. It is concentrated on the coast and, above all, in the three main municipalities: Lorca, Cartagena and Murcia. It should be noted that planning includes rural settlement land in this category, specifically as consolidated urban land. Developable land is found mainly in the urban areas of Lorca and Murcia. Non-developable plots, in turn, cover more than 800,000 hectares. In general, its transport network is well developed, except for the railway network, which is extensive but outdated. The highlights are the road network and the port of Cartagena.

Farming recognised throughout the world

Agricultural estates total more than 350,000 hectares, over 30% of the Region of Murcia. Fruit trees and vegetables predominate, and it is one of the regions with the highest production of fruit, vegetables and flowers in Europe. The crops that cover the largest area and generate the highest production are lettuce, broccoli, tomatoes, lemons, peaches and barley. Vineyards are also especially important, the main ones being in the municipalities of Jumilla, Bullas and Yecla. In livestock farming, pigs stand out, followed by poultry and sheep. With more than 500,000 hectares, forest land covers practically half of the Region of Murcia, most of it woodland.

The urban area of Murcia, an industrial and residential hub

The urban area of Murcia concentrates most of the industrial and residential land in the autonomous community. Industrial plots exceed 3,000 hectares. The leading sectors are petrochemicals and energy, in the Cartagena area, and food and transport, in the Murcia area. Exports are the main strength of an industry recognised worldwide.

The residential area has grown in recent years. It is concentrated in Murcia, Lorca and Cartagena, as well as on the coast, especially in La Manga del Mar Menor, a natural site unique in the world.
