San Patrik works with clients who value discretion, clarity, and long-term value.

We are best suited for property owners and buyers who are not looking for mass exposure or transactional brokerage, but for thoughtful guidance, strategic positioning, and controlled execution.

If you are looking for an advisory-first approach, limited capacity, and personal accountability throughout the process, San Patrik may be the right fit.

We act as advisors first, not intermediaries.

Our role is to help you make the right decision, not simply to close a transaction.

This means fewer listings, deeper involvement, controlled distribution, and a clear strategy behind every move. We focus on protecting value, privacy, and timing, rather than maximizing volume.

No. We work selectively.

We focus on properties where strategy, positioning, and execution genuinely matter. This includes residential, luxury, and investment-grade real estate, as well as selected new developments.

If a property does not benefit from an advisory approach, we will say so openly.

We provide full seller representation with an advisory focus.

This includes pricing strategy, positioning, controlled marketing, negotiations, legal coordination, and transaction management.

For selected properties, we also offer access to our Luxury Program, designed for owners who require discretion, international reach, and non-public distribution.

We advise buyers throughout the entire acquisition process, from defining criteria and assessing value, to negotiations, due diligence, and closing.

Our role is to protect your interests, reduce risk, and ensure the acquisition makes sense not only today, but long-term, both lifestyle-wise and financially.

Yes, when it adds real value.

Certain opportunities are never publicly listed. We engage off-market and internationally only when it aligns with a client’s objectives and offers a clear advantage.

We do not promote off-market deals as a marketing label.

The Luxury Program is a specialized advisory service for owners of high-value properties.

It focuses on strategic positioning, discreet distribution, controlled exposure, and international buyer access. Each property is handled individually, often without public listings, to protect privacy and long-term value.

Participation is based on alignment, not volume.

Yes.

Foreigners can acquire ownership of real estate in the Republic of Croatia under the following conditions:

• Citizens and legal entities from European Union member states may acquire real estate under the same conditions as Croatian citizens and legal entities registered in Croatia. No special permits are required.
• Citizens and legal entities from non-EU countries may acquire real estate subject to reciprocity and with prior consent of the Ministry of Justice and Public Administration of the Republic of Croatia. This is a standard administrative procedure.

We guide international clients through the entire approval and acquisition process.

A standard transaction typically takes between 30 and 60 days from contract signing to ownership registration, depending on legal structure, approvals, and financing.

In addition to the agreed purchase price, buyers should account for the following costs:

• Agency fee: typically 2% to 4% of the purchase price plus VAT
• Notary public costs for the sales contract, tabular statement, and ownership registration: approximately 50 to 60 EUR
• Real estate transfer tax: 3% of the purchase price (for resale properties)
• Annual tax on holiday homes: approximately 2 EUR per m2 per year, depending on municipality

One-time acquisition costs typically amount to the purchase price plus approximately 6%.

Both EU and non-EU owners may rent out property in Croatia. Tourist rentals require local registration and compliance with applicable regulations.

Depending on location and asset type, properties may be suitable for short-term tourist rentals, long-term residential leasing, or mixed-use strategies.

Agency fees depend on the scope of work, transaction complexity, and asset type.
