317: Montenegro: A Hidden Gem In The Balkans – Ladislas Maurice

During my recent trip to the beautiful Balkan nation of Montenegro, I had the chance to sit down with my good friend Ladislas Maurice, who has lived and invested in the country for years. In this conversation, we talk a bit about immigration, taxes, company formation, etc. Enjoy this first-hand account of living in this gorgeous hidden gem in the Balkans.  

TODAY’S DISCUSSION ABOUT MONTENEGRO WITH LADISLAS MAURICE

• Listen in to learn how my friend Ladislas became aware of Montenegro and why he quickly started getting involved in real estate projects in the country. 
• Discover the rapid changes to the real estate market over the last few years, spurred on by an influx of foreign investment.
• Tune in to learn why Montenegro has such a “Geneva vibe,” with expats from various different cultures and political backgrounds all gathering peacefully. 
• Is it easy to become a resident of Montenegro? Learn about the various pathways available for expats to obtain a residency in this Balkan nation.
• Uncover why countries like Montenegro (and much of Latin America) are a lot more “chilled out” when it comes to rules and regulations than many North Americans are used to - and why that’s a wonderful thing.
• Hear a full breakdown of the tax situation in Montenegro, from corporate to personal to property tax. How does it stack up to its European neighbours?
• Learn everything you need to know about property and real estate in Montenegro from a firsthand expert in Ladislas.
• For Ladislas, Montenegro is a “Plan A.” But how does it stack up as a Plan-B for expats?
