Buying an apartment in Belgrade or Zagreb today represents a big financial challenge for many citizens, but buying an apartment in the cities of the region is also a way of “saving” and capital protection.
Apartments are increasingly being bought not only to solve the housing issue, but also as a form of investment. Many investors see real estate as a safer way to preserve the value of money in times of economic uncertainty and inflation.
When comparing the capital cities of the former Yugoslavia, Ljubljana currently has the highest apartment prices, writes Telegraf. In new buildings, a square meter is often sold for between 4,000 and 5,500 euros.
Zagreb is right behind the Slovenian capital, and prices usually range from around 3,000 to 4,500 euros per square meter.
In Belgrade, the average prices of new apartments range between 2,700 and 3,500 euros per square meter, while the most attractive locations record significantly higher amounts. In places like Belgrade Waterfront, Dorćol and Vračar, the price per square meter can exceed 5,000 euros.
In Sarajevo, apartments are generally sold at prices of around 2,300 to 3,000 euros per square meter, while in Podgorica prices are usually between 1,900 and 2,700 euros.
In Skopje, apartment prices range from 1,700 to 2,500 euros per square meter, Telegraf reported.
