Property in Kotor
 

  Rural stone houses in need of renovation, but with an acre of land, change hands for £40,000 in this region; waterfront properties can be snapped up for £60,000 but may need tidying up
   
 

Kotor and Perast are both UNESCOlisted heritage towns with architecture dating from the 12th to 14th centuries. Budva is the centre of Montenegrin tourism and consists of a small, old town on a peninsula, surrounded by 17 beaches, small islands and a large sprawl of modern developments. .

   
  Lively in summer, rental returns are greatest in this area. Sveti Stefan, made famous as a playground for Hollywood stars in the '70s, is a picturesque island connected to the mainland by a causeway.
   
  Apartments here are already selling at a premium. For long-term investment, the Lustica Peninsula is a hot tip. Home to beautiful beaches and clear, blue sea, property prices are staggeringly cheap: a two-bedroom house in good condition sells for around £30,000. There are no restrictions on foreigners buying property in Montenegro. The buying process can take only a few days using a competent local solicitor. Avoid potential problems by hiring one – local property titles in Montenegro are not always ‘clean', sometimes having been registered incorrectly during the communisat era. Otherwise, Montenegro is very much worth a punt by 2007
