Property for Sale in Currila, Durrës – By the Sea

Yes. Its closeness to Tirana and central Durrës, plus the clear water and views, make Currila appealing for seasonal summer rentals. Sea-view units and those near the restaurants typically see the strongest demand. Income is mostly seasonal, so base your yield calculations on the busy summer months.

Currila is only a few minutes from central Durrës and roughly 40–45 minutes by car from Tirana International Airport and the capital, via the Tirana–Durrës highway. That proximity is one of the main reasons buyers choose it for a second home.

Yes. Foreign individuals can freely buy apartments and buildings in Albania in their own name, with no citizenship or residency requirement. Agricultural land is the main exception: foreigners cannot own it directly, but may access it through a local company or a long-term lease.

Purchases are finalised before a public notary, who verifies title, then registered at the State Cadastre Agency (ASHK). Budget for notary fees, a property transfer tax of roughly two to three percent of the reference value, and modest ASHK registration fees. Registration usually takes a few weeks.

Owning property can support an Albanian residence permit application, typically issued for one year and renewable. Property ownership alone does not grant automatic citizenship. Recent amendments to the law on foreigners may set minimum investment thresholds, so confirm current requirements with Albanian immigration authorities before relying on them.

The Albanian coast benefits from fast-growing tourism, with record visitor numbers and surging short-let demand. Coastal short-term rentals commonly target high single-digit to low double-digit gross yields, while prices remain well below neighbouring Mediterranean markets. New infrastructure, including Vlora airport, supports continued interest.

Rental income earned by individuals is generally taxed at a flat fifteen percent, with certain maintenance and management expenses deductible. Profit on resale is subject to capital gains tax, also fifteen percent on the difference between purchase and sale price. Keep documentation to support any deductible costs.
