Qerret sits along the Kavaje coastline, right beside Golem, with a wide fine-sand beach and shallow, calm water that makes it a favourite for families. Pine groves near the shore and quick access to Durres and Tirana airport have turned this strip into one of the most sought-after holiday spots on the Adriatic. Buyers — Albanians, Kosovars and the diaspora — choose Qerret for second homes and seasonal lets, where summer rental demand stays strong and prices remain gentler than Durres city.
Frequent questions
What do properties cost to buy in Qerret (Kavaje)?
Overall Qerret stays more affordable than central Durres, which makes it attractive for mid-budget buyers. Check the current listings for up-to-date prices.
Is Qerret (Kavaje) a good buy-to-let investment?
Yes. The sandy beach and shallow water draw families every summer, so seasonal rental demand is steady from June to September. Many owners cover a good share of yearly costs from the peak season alone, while capital values have been rising as new developments arrive.
How far is Qerret (Kavaje) from the airport and main cities?
Qerret sits next to Golem, just minutes from Durres and roughly half an hour from Tirana airport by car thanks to the nearby motorway. That quick link makes it easy both for weekend trips and for guests arriving by air.
Can a foreigner buy property in Albania?
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.
How does the buying process work and what does it cost?
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.
Does buying property help with a residence permit?
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.
Why invest in the Albanian coast?
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.
How are rental income and capital gains taxed?
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.
