The most expensive real estate in Croatia
According to Crozilla, the most expensive city in Croatia to buy real estate is Dubrovnik. It costs around 3,650 euros per sqm for apartment or house, which makes it significantly more expensive than the second most expensive city Opatija, where the price per square meter of an apartment is around 3,150 euros, and a house around 2,250 euros. The third most expensive city in Croatia in terms of the price per square meter of an apartment is Split, where the price is 2,915 euros per square meter of an apartment and 2,650 euros per square meter of a house. After Split, Zadar is on the list of the most expensive real estate in Croatia, where the average prices per square meter of an apartment are 2266 euros, and houses 1645 euros. It is important to take into account that this is the average advertised sale price according to the Crozilla, and the actual average price is in reality lower, since when buying a property the price always drops slightly.
The largest price increase per square meter
The highest annual price increase for houses was recorded in Split (9.5%), while the highest price increase for apartments was recorded in Umag (8.8%). The Croatian capital, Zagreb, recorded an increase of 8.3% for apartments and 6.2% for houses, so the average price per square meter of an apartment is 2,063 euros, and houses 1,339 euros. The biggest difference in the prices per square meter of an apartment and a house of 43.3% was recorded in Bjelovar, where apartments were advertised at a price of 756 euros per square meter, and houses at 429 euros. The difference between the price of apartments and houses is large in Varaždin, where apartments cost 1160 euros per square meter, and houses 748 euros.
Most popular cities to buy real estate
Osijek was among the most popular cities for buying real estate in November 2019. The average price of an apartment there is 967 euros per sqm, and a house 607 euros per sqm. Apart from Osijek, the list also includes Dubrovnik, Split, Opatija, Zagreb and Zadar as most searched locations. According to some estimates, real estate prices are already higher than the possibilities of Croatian citizens, but this does not create a problem and will not cause prices to fall as long as the demand of foreign citizens prevails. Every fifth real estate in Croatia is bought by foreigners, and the percentage is even higher on the coast.Will the price growth trend continue in 2020?
It is very difficult to answer this question, but by all accounts, the answer is yes. While the demand for real estate is higher than the supply, there is no reason for prices to fall, and since the number of foreigners buying real estate in Croatia is expected to increase in 2020, all new buildings on the coast are "safe". Elements for maintaining and rising real estate prices are higher demand than supply, rising labor prices and the obligation of investors to pay 25 percent of taxes are met in Croatia, and we believe that there is still no fear that real estate prices will fall.
Best location
Dubrovnik is considered one of the best locations to buy real estate in. Dubrovnik has been known as the main tourist location in Croatia for years, and with the filming of the Game of Thrones series, an increasing number of tourist arrivals is expected. Coastal properties can bring you passive income during the tourist season and are therefore considered a great investment. Unlike some other forms of investment, real estate is an investment that can be influenced and whose arrangement and renovation can achieve a higher price.
