About Durrës

Durrës, Albania's largest port and second-largest city, sits 35 km from Tirana and combines a beach economy with a working maritime industry. Daily ferries to Italy, a population of about 200,000, and the lowest entry prices in Albania's coastal market make Durrës the strongest yield play for investors prioritising rental returns over capital growth.

Why invest in Durrës

Lowest coastal entry price in Albania — apartments from €800/m² inland, €1,200/m² beachfront.
Mixed-demand market: summer holiday lets, year-round port and university tenants — vacancy risk lower than pure-tourism towns.
Italian ferries from the port deliver a steady stream of Italian holiday-makers, raising shoulder-season Airbnb occupancy.
Major new motorway link to Pristina (Kosovo) shortens drive times — expanding the catchment for short-term rentals.
Average gross yields of 9-12% on beachfront one-bed apartments under managed Airbnb.

Neighbourhoods and submarkets

Currila and Plazhi i Iliriasit deliver the strongest beachfront yields; the city centre near the Roman amphitheatre offers heritage-tourism appeal; Shkozet is the affordable inland zone where rental demand from port workers is steady year round.

Frequently asked questions about investing in Durrës

Is Durrës better for short-term or long-term rentals?

Durrës is one of the few Albanian coastal cities where both models work — the port, university and 200k population sustain year-round long-term demand, while the beach generates exceptional peak-season Airbnb returns. Hybrid (seasonal switch) is increasingly common.

What's the catch with such low Durrës prices?

Older inland building stock and inconsistent quality across developers. JHA Holdings vets each building's structural reports, condominium fees and rental-readiness before recommending.

How does Durrës compare to Sarandë for investors?

Durrës is roughly 30-40% cheaper than Sarandë for equivalent apartments and has stronger off-season demand thanks to the port and university. Sarandë has higher peak-season ADR but a much shorter peak window.

Are short-term rentals legal in Durrës?

Yes, with standard registration via the National Tourism Agency and AKBN tax registration. JHA Holdings handles registration and the 6% short-stay VAT compliance for managed properties.
