Where people buy on the coast
Most foreign demand concentrates on four areas. Budva and neighbouring Bečići are the busiest resort market, with the widest choice of apartments and the strongest short-let season. Tivat, home to the Porto Montenegro marina, is the higher-end, year-round end of the coast. Kotor and its bay — Dobrota, Prčanj, Muo — trade beach access for UNESCO-listed scenery and quieter, more residential streets.
New-build and off-plan
A large share of coastal supply is new construction. Buying off-plan can mean a better price and a staged payment plan, but it also means checking the developer, the permit and the delivery terms carefully. Our guide on what to ask a developer before you reserve walks through the questions that matter.
