Buying Property in Montenegro: A Guide for International Buyers

Montenegro welcomes international buyers, and in most cases residential property can be acquired on the same terms as by Montenegrin citizens. Certain categories of land are subject to restrictions, which is one of the reasons independent legal advice is essential from the outset.

A typical purchase begins with a reservation, followed by legal due diligence on title, permits and any encumbrances. The sale contract is then concluded before a notary, and ownership is registered with the real estate cadastre.

Our advisors coordinate each step with independent lawyers, notaries and tax advisors, so that you can make every decision with complete clarity. This article is general information and does not constitute legal or tax advice.
