expatriate property


The standard of rental accommodation in Croatia varies widely, depending upon location. The rental market is quite limited, especially during the summer months.

The main emphasis is on holiday rentals, with fairly high rental rates during the busy tourist season. It can be difficult and expensive to find even short-term rental property during that time.

The widest variety of long-term rental apartments and houses are to be found in the metropolitan areas of Zagreb, Split and Dubrovnik. Foreigners can expect to pay significantly higher rents than local citizens.

It is crucial to enter into a rental agreement with a valid occupational lease within which every single detail of the lease is clearly specified in writing, including early termination clauses, pet regulations etc. It is strongly advised that the prospective renter engage a solicitor to ensure the lease is accurate and that it provides him/her with full protection under the laws governing property rental in Croatia.

The typical lease deposit is the amount of one month's rent, and in addition, on a long-term lease up to three months' payment may be requested in advance. A typical long-term lease is for one year.

It is advisable to contact a reputable real estate agency that is experienced in handling long-term leases and is located in the area in which you are considering living. Commissions vary; be certain to establish the rate prior to going out and looking at property.
