in general cost of living in Belgrade is quite lower than in other countries in EU. I am sending prices for car rental

It is very inexpensive, comparatively, to rent or buy a home here in Serbia. I live in north Serbia, near the Hungarian border. Apartments for rent are common but house rental is not. I have lived in three rental homes at the cost of 70 to 100 euro per month. It has been difficult as there is not a home rental culture here. My advice is to be sure to have a contract and look for a home that was purchased for the purpose of rental, not the former family home.

Purchasing a home is also comparatively inexpensive. Check out this realtors website: http://ad-acta.co.rs

@Debbie - your experience is from smaller towns or villages. In big cities, like Novi Sad and Belgrade houses and flats are quite expensive. You can check prices for renting in Novi Sad, from 200 EUR to 500 EUR, depending on location. and floor area.
