📣 Investor Briefing: Montenegro’s Fast-Track to the EU – Why Property Prices May Increase considerably.
Montenegro, one of Europe’s most promising real estate plays — and 2025 will be the pivotal year.
After years of slow progress, EU accession talks have accelerated significantly. Most negotiation chapters are closing, with completion expected by 2026 and drafting of the accession treaty already underway.
> “If reform momentum holds, Montenegro could finalize accession ahead of schedule.”
– EU Enlargement Commissioner, May 2025
This isn’t just politics — it’s a clear signal to investors. And the property market is already reacting.
* The real estate surge is, and will be, strongest in Tivat, due to the infrastructure and Port, including Luštica Peninsula around to Krašići , and Kotor Bay from Old town to Perast, even Risan. Prices have risen due to foreign demand, limited availability, low taxes, euro stability, and luxury developments like Porto Montenegro.
Now, with EU membership just 24–30 months away, a second wave of growth is gaining pace.
📊 What to Expect: 📍 Tivat Municipality (Tivat Central, Porto Montenegro, Luštica Bay and coastline down to Krasici) and Kotor Bay (Old Town, Dobrota to Perast side) could see prices rise furthere in the next 1–3 years as it moves closer to EU.
* Prime tourist zones expected to appreciate
* Luxury coastal properties expect a considerable rise depending on location and readiness
* Rental yields to grow as EU entry boosts tourism, flight access, and liquidity
its safe to Invest :
✔️ EU accession de-risks the market: legal protections, financing options, buyer confidence
✔️ Montenegro already uses the euro — no currency risk
✔️ Real estate still provides residency benefits
📬 Investor Takeaway:
Montenegro is on the verge of becoming the EU’s 28th member — sooner than expected! For investors, the time between now and full accession may offer the best value window in a market that’s proving itself.
📍If you're positioned in high-demand coastal areas around the bay — expect high capital appreciation over the next cycle , especially in cases where EU status has not yet been factored into the price, this is not only possible, it’s increasingly likely. At today’s prices, properties are still a bargain.
