Renting an apartment in Serbia
The best and safest way to rent an apartment in Serbia is to hire a licensed real estate agent to ensure a higher level of legal security and reduce the possibility of illegal mediation activities.
You can check whether a real estate agent has a license on the official website of the Ministry of Internal and Foreign Trade by entering the agency’s name or the serial number under which they are registered. The register also contains all the data regarding the agency and information about agents who work there.
Before making any payments for your apartment, make sure first to sign a contract after you read it thoroughly and ensure that it doesn’t contain any misinformation or terms that weren’t agreed upon.
Here is a list of licensed real estate agencies in some of the major cities in Serbia.
