San Patrik Presented Croatian Real Estate Insights at Dubai Global Symposium

October 10, 2023

Ivan Varat, Managing Director with San Patrik Real Estate, was a speaker at the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® Global Symposium, which took place September 27-29 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The conference attracted top real estate professionals from 31 countries who are affiliated with Leading Real Estate Companies of the World® (LeadingRE), an invitation-only network that connects high quality real estate firms worldwide.

Varat introduced the participants to the Croatian real estate market, providing insights into its current state and trends. He elaborated on typical buyers, price ranges, and shared detailed information on the present dynamics of the market.

He was part of an accomplished line-up of speakers that included LeadingRE Chairman of the Board Finn-Whitney LaCosta of Howard Hanna Coach Realtors in Northport, New York, discussed the importance of leveraging global connections; China PR and Marketing Advisor Sally Maier-Yip of 11K Consulting in London; and real estate leaders from around the world who shared insights on trends and opportunities in key markets, commercial real estate, luxury trends and the affluent market, embracing global business, effective communications across cultures, economic questions facing real estate, effective brand building, the future of PropTech and A.I., professional training in a new era, and more.

“In Croatia, the two primary real estate markets are Zagreb, where about 95% of buyers are locals, and the coastal areas, attracting over 70% of buyers from foreign countries like Germany, Slovenia and Austria. The country’s inclusion in the Schengen zone and adoption of the Euro as a currency, along with good connectivity, have made it even more appealing to foreign buyers,” said Varat.

According to LeadingRE President of Global Operations Chris Dietz, “The success of the event is due, in large part, to the generous contributions of our speakers, who so generously share their insights and expertise. By having some of the world’s best real estate professionals from a cross-section of markets and specialties, we deliver content that is timely and impactful and supports our mission to foster mutual success among our members.”
