Vera Matović’s Dedinje Villa and Art Collection Are Reportedly Worth Millions

Folk singer Vera Matović is said to have turned decades of work into an impressive collection of property and art. A report claims that the house she shares with her husband, Ratomir Raca Matović, stands in Belgrade’s upscale Dedinje district and has an estimated market value of four million euros. The villa is described not only as a luxury home but also as a place where Matović keeps a substantial private collection of paintings. The report says the collection focuses on works by Serbian artists from the previous century, although it does not provide an independent valuation of the pieces. Matović has addressed public talk about her wealth by presenting it as the result of years of work rather than inheritance or a sudden windfall. As quoted in the article, she said she had spent five decades working and investing in art, adding that her purchases were paid for with earnings from performances and that she had met her tax obligations. The story also portrays the singer as restrained in her personal spending despite the reported value of her assets. It says she designs and sews many of her own stage outfits instead of regularly buying expensive international labels. That image of careful planning, the report suggests, sits alongside the scale of the property and art collection attributed to her.
