Construction is a sector that has good times and bad times. It is true that this happens in almost all industries and that, in times of recession, people consume less, so money stagnates and moves only in areas of basic products and services. And you will think, isn't housing a fundamental and basic right? Yes, it is, but in bad times, people decide to postpone the purchase of such an expensive and almost unattainable good with savings.
Asking for a loan from a bank binds you for life and if the future situation is not very solid and stable, people stop buying houses, much less new construction.

That is why houses such as chalets, townhouses or with large terraces are in high demand.
