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

The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup

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?

JOIN US IN PANAMA - FLY'N BUY TOUR

Beginning of Q4, 2024, the Panama government has already stated that they are increasing the investment minimums for immigration from $300k to $500k for real estate; we also expect them to make this process more difficult! Because of this, I have decided to run a few quick trips to Panama for our community. Seeing the real estate in Panama is an important part of the due diligence process, that’s why I would like to pay for you to join me in Panama. All you have to do is sign up for the tour at https://expatmoney.com/fly, pay for the tour, and if you end up finding a property that fits your needs on the trip, then the amount you paid for the tour PLUS your airfare (up to $1000 USD) will be taken off the purchase price, making the entire tour and flights essentially free for you. Why am I offering you this awesome deal? Because my hope is you will hire me and my lawyers to do your immigration work! Our company has helped hundreds of people successfully go through the immigration process in Panama, and we do an excellent job, if I do say so myself. This is a service we offer to everyone in our community, but you have to choose a good property that will qualify you first.

Veritas Panama - Offgrid Community

After 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama! This is the fully off-grid community we are building in the highlands of Panama. We have already started building the roads, subdividing the lots, installing the septic and water, and even installing solar panels, so everything is independent of the power grid! The site we chose is unbelievable; we are up at a flat plateau about a thousand feet up a mountain with incredible unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. To go to the beach, it is just 15 minutes down to the water. We have mature fruit trees on site, including these gorgeous 200-year-old mango trees and many other things, such as avocado trees, papayas, and delicious tropical fruits. You can find out more information and contact us at VeritasPanama.com But please be aware that there are only 100 home sites, and without even talking about this to the general public, a lot of the lots are already sold… So if you dream of living in a completely off-grid community, enjoying the beautiful weather, close to the beach, being food, water, and energy independent, and want to have like-minded and cool neighbours, people who respect personal, medical, and economic freedoms, then I want you to contact us at VeritasPanama.com today
