Athens Riviera Property

Finding your perfect Athens Riviera Property can be challenging. There is limited availability of property to buy along the coastline and very few new developments. Importantly, you must also take care that all of the title and ownership of the property are in place. Until recently, the property and regulatory structure surrounding Greek property was relatively informal. As a result it can be difficult to trace ownership and liens on some older properties.

As the area is popular with both locals and tourists, there are opportunities for you to achieve rental income. You can usually rent a property on the Athens Riviera successfully during the summer months. You can also usually command reasonable prices and income during peak season because of high demand.

Non-EU owners of property in Greece (over €250,000) qualify for a residency permit for them and their families. The residency permit does not necessarily grant owners the right to work or open a business in the country.
