Off-plan payment plan

Pay as it's built.

Most new buildings in Vlorë are sold off-plan: a first payment when you sign, then monthly instalments until you get the keys. Try your own numbers.

Many developer plans are interest-free, but terms change from project to project. This is an estimate only, not an offer.

Foreign buyers and the diaspora

Buying from abroad, step by step.

Foreigners can buy apartments and houses in Albania. This is how it usually works, in plain words.

  1. Choose and reserve

    Shortlist on video, then come and see. When you find the one, a small reservation takes it off the market while the papers are checked.

  2. Check the papers

    Ask for the ownership certificate (certifikata e pronësisë) or, for off-plan homes, the building permit. A lawyer checks there are no mortgages or disputes on it.

  3. Tax number and bank account

    Foreign buyers usually need an Albanian tax number and a local bank account. Pay by bank transfer, never in cash.

  4. Sign at the notary

    The contract is signed in front of a notary. Can't travel? Ask the notary whether you can sign through a power of attorney (prokurë).

  5. Register and get the keys

    The sale is registered with the State Cadastre Agency (ASHK) and the ownership certificate is issued in your name. Then the keys are yours.

About us

A small agency on the Lungomare.

Gjiri Homes started in 2014, when two Vlonjatë came home after twelve years in Italy and couldn't find an agent who answered the phone. We still answer it.

We list fewer homes, we visit every one ourselves, and we tell you what we would tell family.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot.

Can foreigners buy property in Albania?

Yes, foreigners can buy apartments and houses. Rules for farmland are different, so ask a lawyer before you buy a plot of land.

I live abroad. Can you show me a home on video?

Yes. We do live WhatsApp video calls, or we send a recorded video tour within 48 hours, including the view from the balcony and the walk to the beach.

What do I pay on top of the price?

Usually notary fees, registration at the cadastre and your lawyer, plus a small yearly property tax. Ask your notary for the exact figures before you sign. Our own fee is agreed in writing before any viewing.

Is buying off-plan safe?

It can be, if the papers are right: a valid building permit, a notarised contract, payments into a bank account and instalments tied to building progress. We show you the permit for every off-plan project we list. Your lawyer should still check it.

How does a long-term rental work?

Usually a 12-month contract, a one-month deposit and the first month's rent in advance. We prepare the contract and an inventory, so there are no surprises at the end.

Can you manage my apartment while I'm abroad?

Yes: tenants, check-ins and check-outs, repairs and bills, with a monthly report on WhatsApp.
