Owners of real estate in Montenegro: has something changed the new law?
The advantages that owners of real estate in Montenegro received on November 3 are obvious. However, experts are not in a hurry with positive conclusions that Russians will rush wholesale purchases of housing in Montenegro. Obtaining residence permits is, of course, an incentive, but it is not necessary to be an official resident of the country to fully live and work here. Although representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Montenegro are convinced that the new law should be such an incentive, because before that, all owners of real estate in Montenegro without residence permits traveled outside the country and returned back. Now the residence permit in Montenegro for a year will get everyone who has bought an apartment or a house in Montenegro.
While Montenegro is confidently leading the top countries where emigrants from Russia are more willing to buy real estate - at least, from the top ten players, it has not yet emerged.
According to statistics, 90% of our compatriots are interested in beach rest and mountain skiing. Interestingly, property owners in Montenegro mainly buy not the most budgetary options, the average cost of rating options is above 250 thousand euros. The average age of buyers is approximately 35 years. There are more objects, developers are trying to attract the audience with various bonuses - so even the most inexpensive apartments are rented not only with a fine finish, but also with the necessary set of home appliances.
Can sanctions affect the investment priorities of Russians? Here, experts disagree, and yet most of them believe that potential property owners in Montenegro are unlikely to pay attention to such measures - after all, sanctions are related to finances and supplies of energy resources, the housing market in Montenegro is affected only indirectly. And then, if a person has firmly decided to buy an apartment in Montenegro, it is unlikely that he will be stopped by temporary political trends.
As for the value of the residence permit itself in Montenegro, Russian buyers do not consider it a good asset - people are interested in obtaining citizenship, and a temporary residence permit for obtaining a Montenegrin passport does not approximate.
In a word, the owners of real estate in Montenegro, with the adoption of the new law, are, rather, formal advantages, and are unlikely to consider this condition as decisive in the selection of housing in Europe. Specialists also advise to pay attention to buying land at all - this is a more profitable and rational investment. Although, if you are severely limited in the budget, then for 25 000 euros you can afford a pretty furnished studio.
