The beach strip south of the city (Plazh, Iliria, Shkëmbi i Kavajës) is where most sea-view apartments are, and 30% of Durrës listings advertise a sea view. The old town and Lagjja 1 near the port offer older, cheaper stock closer to daily life, while Currila to the north is quieter and more residential. 27% of listed apartments are still under construction, so off-plan purchases with staged payments are common.

Set against the median asking rent for apartments for rent in Durrës, the gross yield from asking prices is about 4.3% before tax and costs. Rental income in Albania is taxed at a flat 15 percent, and the figure is a snapshot of asking prices, not of signed contracts.

Foreigners buy Durrës apartments outright with no residency requirement. Because the beach strip was built quickly, checking that the building and your specific unit are fully registered at the cadastre is the single most important step. Winter is quiet on the coast; if income matters, compare summer weekly rates with the longer-term rents on our Durrës rental listings.
