Serbia continues to attract the attention of both local and foreign investors thanks to its stable real estate market and attractive living conditions. In 2024, housing prices remain one of the most discussed topics in view of high demand and limited supply, especially in the capital, Belgrade.
Housing prices in Belgrade continue to rise. In popular central districts such as Vračar, Stari Grad and Novi Beograd, the cost per square meter ranges from €3,000 to €5,000. In less prestigious districts farther from the center, prices vary from €1,500 to €2,800 per square meter, which makes them more affordable for young families and for those looking for budget options.
In Novi Sad and Niš, other large cities of Serbia, housing costs remain stable: a square meter costs on average €1,400–1,800, while in some suburbs prices can fall to €900–1,000.
Serbia remains an attractive destination for citizens of many countries. Its convenient location, the simplified process of obtaining a residence permit and an affordable cost of living all attract new buyers to the real estate market. Belgrade is experiencing a housing shortage, especially in prestigious districts. This stimulates growth in prices on the secondary market and increases the cost of apartments at the construction stage. Improved transport accessibility and the construction of new schools and shopping centers make certain districts more sought-after, which also contributes to rising prices.
Expert of the Belgrade real estate agency Vidovstan Vira Yehorova-Tolstaya notes that in 2025 the real estate market in Serbia will continue to show growth, although the pace may slow down. According to her, the main forecasts include a moderate rise in prices, an increase in the volume of new construction and continued high interest in Serbian real estate from foreign buyers. In the expert’s opinion, stronger competition between construction companies will lead to the emergence of more affordable options in the economy-class segment.
For those planning to buy housing in 2025, it is important to take the following recommendations into account. First, determine your budget and factor in all additional costs: taxes, notary services and agents’ commissions. Second, study the market and compare prices in different districts. Third, seek professional help: the services of realtors or legal advisers will help you avoid mistakes. Finally, consider new-build properties, since buying housing at the construction stage can be a profitable investment.
Serbia’s real estate market in 2025 is showing steady growth, remaining attractive to investors and new residents of the country. Despite rising prices, Serbia offers a variety of housing options suited to different categories of buyers. If you are planning a move or an investment, now is a good time to choose a property, while the market is at the stage of forming new opportunities.
