City Expert are the first in Serbia to offer “virtual tours” or video visualization of an apartment under construction
The first Serbian online real estate agency City Expert occupies a dominant position in the real estate market due to its innovative business. What started as an idea in 2015, today has grown into an agency with more than 10,000 sold and rented apartments in Belgrade and Novi Sad and growing business in the European Union, namely Ljubljana. City Expert is constantly improving its business, and this time around, they offer the improved service of the Credit Advisor, who provides support to clients in search of the best housing, cash loan or dream apartment, completely free of charge. We talked with the CEO of City Expert, Igor Jović, about how long it took the agency to upgrade their Credit Advisor service and what benefits does it provide to tenants, developers and banks.
What is the Credit Advisor service and what benefits does it bring its users?
Credit Advisor is an improved, fully digitalized and free service provided by City Expert that will help everyone who is looking for a housing or cash loan, as well as real estate to easily, quickly and safely finds the best offer with the help of a personal advisor. Everyone who has thought about buying real estate at least once has found themselves in a situation where they are confused by banking terminology, do not know where to start or simply do not have time to spare to look for the best offer. City Expert’s credit advisor solves all the above mentioned problems.
How does the City Expert Credit Advisor service work?
Credit advisor is a service that is available on the website kreditnisavetnik.rs . After filling out a relevant form, the team of advisors personally dedicates themselves to each client and request individually. With a simple free online application on the Credit Advisor page, clients will receive answers to all of their questions about financing and the required documentation, regardless at what stage of seeking financial services they are currently. The waiting time for response depends on the specifics of the request itself, but most often the client receives the first offer within 24 to 48 hours.
City Expert’s Credit Advisor provides support, saves time, finds the best financing offers from banks and saves money because the service is completely free of charge.
Who makes up the City Expert Credit Advisor team?
Our team of experts consists of Snežana Vukmirović, an economist with 15 years of experience in banking and insurance, Jovana Rančić Korovljević, a licensed real estate agent with a five-year-experience in renting and selling real estate and Nikola Čobić, an economist with more than six years of experience working as a licensed real estate agent.
You have recently introduced a new service for developers of new real estate. Tell us more about it.
Our team listens intently to the market and the needs of both buyers and developers. That is why this year we launched a new service for developers of new real estate, which in addition to standard services of renting and selling real estate with maximum legal certainty, also provides advertising and 3D modelling (rendering) of apartments. We are especially proud of our “virtual tours”, more precisely the video visualization of an apartment under construction, and the fact that we are the first to do so in Serbia. In the last few months, we have signed cooperation agreements with over 20 developers who will present their projects in this way and thus reach satisfied customers more easily, transparently and safely.
Are you planning further expansion and what are your goals?
Since 2017, City Expert has expanded its business to Novi Sad, and we can proudly say that for more than a year, we have been successfully operating in the European Union market, in Ljubljana to be more precise, under the trade name Zwelo.si. This service is completely identical to the City Expert service. Zwelo.si has been successfully reshaping the real estate market in Slovenia by offering users quality media presentations, professional photos and videos that take them on a virtual tour of the apartment.
Our mission is to become leaders in real estate sales and leases, through innovations that we implement, making the whole process faster, more transparent, safer and more affordable.
