Yes. EU citizens can buy property in Greece without restrictions; buyers from outside the EU can too, subject to some additional formalities. You will need a Greek tax number (AFM) and a Greek bank account. We help you arrange both.
Essentially: a valid ID or passport, a Greek tax number (AFM) and proof of the origin of funds. Depending on your situation, additional documents may be required; we guide you through this step by step.
On top of the purchase price, allow for transfer tax (typically 3% on existing properties), notary and legal fees, registration costs and any agency commission. We give you a clear overview of all costs upfront, so there are never any surprises.
On average, a purchase on Crete takes six to twelve weeks from signing the preliminary agreement, depending on the legal checks and the notary’s schedule.
In Greece, it is standard practice for a lawyer to check the title deeds, building permits and any encumbrances before purchase. We work exclusively with trusted local lawyers and have every property thoroughly examined.
Yes! Both long-term and holiday rentals are possible (the latter requires a rental licence/AMA number). We advise you on the options, regulations and remote management.
