Short-season peaks raise occupancy to 65–90% in summer, with low winter demand (30–50%). Liquidity is moderate—popular coastal units sell quicker. Factor seasonal cashflow, management costs (8–15% of rent) and marketing into returns.

For everyday living choose Central Doanka or University Quarter—easy transport, schools and shops. For short-term rental income pick Marina & Old Harbor for high tourist demand. Hillside Estates offers long‑term rental appeal and family homes. Coastal promenade is best for premium yields and resale, but expect higher prices and maintenance costs.

Expect occupancy 50–80% in summer and 20–40% off-season. Check local limits on continuous short lets and community rules in apartment blocks.

Off-plan buying is common but carries risks: construction delays, permit changes or insolvency. Mitigation: insist on escrow arrangements or bank guarantees, review planning approvals and title availability, include phased payments tied to milestones, and use independent lawyer to confirm building permits and completion guarantees. Typical delivery timelines range 12–48 months.

From offer to keys typically 2–6 months for resale: 2–4 weeks due diligence, 4–8 weeks for contract/financing, 4–12 weeks for title transfer. Off-plan purchases depend on construction stage: 12–48 months until completion. Delays are common due to approvals or financing—build contingency into plans and contracts.

Check permit history and independent land-title records, request past project references, inspect finished units, and verify escrow or bank guarantees for buyer payments. Ask for buyer contracts, completion guarantees and insurance. Use an independent surveyor for structural specs and a local lawyer to confirm planning permissions and that promised infrastructure exists or is guaranteed.
