Methodological note

The Foreclosure statistics provide information on foreclosure certifications initiated and registered in the Land Registers during the reference quarter, relating to all rural and urban properties. The results are broken down on the basis of various variables such as the nature of the property, regime, state and owner of the dwellings with a foreclosure initiated.

The information on foreclosure certifications is obtained from the data contained in the Land Registries of the entire national territory. The Association of Land and Mercantile Registrars of Spain (CORPME) provides centralised information to the INE.
