Croatian Times

Foreign interest in Croatian real estate has increased as the definite date for its accession into the EU is now known, reports Croatian radio television.

Croatia will become an official member state of the EU on 1 July 2013 and already there is increased interest from European investors in owning property in Croatia, which will have an effect on real estate prices in the country.

Foreign property buyers interested in real estate in Croatia have said that clean titles and saftey are the biggest priorities when deciding to purchase property.

A recent survey has found that Croatians prefer to own their own apartments. Some 86 per cent own their own apartments in Croatia, compared with the rest of Europe where the average is only around 20 per cent.
