>1) Short the euro against the dollar. The euro is already at risk of devaluation, and if more properties come on to the market in Europe it will put further downward pressure on prices. 2) Go long on commodities like gold and oil. If there is a global economic slowdown, demand for these assets will increase as investors seek safe havens.

Spain and Portugal have been seeing a rural decline for decades as the younger population moves towards the larger cities or other countries for work. This is not a reflection on recent economic situations but due to years of neglect on rural infrastructure.

Those for sale are from British expats. Britain's Brexit caused this a few years ago. Nothing new. Just homes sitting vacant and which have been devaluing the property market with the saturation of excess homes.
