In the last few years, the Zagreb real estate market has become increasingly dependent on tourism. Many bought apartments to turn them into apartments for rent to tourists. A very classic story considering that almost 20 percent of Croatia’s GDP comes from tourism. For property owners damaged by the earthquake, one of the key problems is reconstruction. While newer properties have stable prices in 2021, properties damaged in the earthquake without renovation will be very difficult to sell even at significantly lower prices.
