80% of the apartments under €100,000 are still under construction. That is not a warning sign in Albania, where most new supply is sold from plans, but it changes how you pay: a registered pre-sale contract, instalments tied to construction stages and the final deed only after the use certificate. Our guide to buying off-plan in Albania explains the sequence; the ordinary apartments for sale in Tirana show the whole market for comparison.

In Tirana €100,000 does not reach the centre: it buys about 43 m² inside the ring road, or 60 to 70 m² in the outer districts along the Durrës road, at Kashar, in Kamëz and on the slopes towards Dajt, mostly in new blocks sold from plans. The flats in this band are the ones that let to students and young professionals, and they are the usual entry point for a buyer who wants a year-round tenant rather than a holiday let.

Closing costs in Albania are about 4 to 7% of the price: notary, registration at the State Cadastre, your own lawyer and the buyer-side municipal charge on the transfer, so a €90,000 flat needs about €4,000 to €6,000 more, plus furnishing. The annual property tax is about 0.05% of value, in the order of €50 a year for a flat in this band.
