To be real I think the general view is that there will be some more Spanish developers who will get in to trouble[ just like our Wimpeys!] and that it will be 2010 before there is any improvement and say circa 10 years [ 2018] before the next boom

But for life style buyers, life is moving quickly as always!.....and 2008 is a good time to buy as you will find some good deals [ just ask for details ......even on good locations ]
If for example you are wanting to do what I am doing........bought off plan villa near Huercal Overa for winter use[ prices start from 170.000 € on 400 m2 plots]......due to be ready March 2009 but expect it to be mid summer 2009
So by the time completion takes place and everything is set up , it will be late 2009 early 2010 so that my first full winter will be 2010/2011
By then the market should be picking up and I ' sure that I will look back and think that the price I paid fixed late 2007 was a good deal!!! and in the years that follow we will all look back and say' 2008 was a good year .........to buy'.......well I hope so !!!
