You love Greece and want to have a holiday home in Greece or even live in Greece to enjoy the Greek life. An important question is then: what kind of property suits your wishes and needs? We hope that the following information will help you to make a decision.
If you choose a newly finished house, it is an advantage that you can live in the house immediately. You can find the type of house you are looking for in the desired location all over Greece. However, you should take your time to compare the locations, amenities, accessibility and quality of the building, which is always reflected in the price. View a large selection of newly finished houses in Greece by visiting our Houses section and select the houses/villas that meet your needs. Don’t hesitate to ask for more information. We can always send you more houses for sale in Greece that fit your budget and wishes.
If you can’t afford a new finished house, then a house within a new development can be an option. Usually a large piece of land that is divided into smaller plots on which houses are built. Sometimes with a communal pool or even a private pool. These types of deals can save you a lot of money, because the builder can share the costs of the plot and building permits, which means less construction costs due to the amount of houses. So it’s worth considering.
You prefer a house with character, with traditional Greek elements? Not many of these types of properties are available that are ready to move into and you will therefore have to renovate/restore the house. The advantage is that you can also give your own personal touch to your house. Read more about the advantages of buying an old house in Greece.
It is wise to hire a competent and reliable architect who can supervise the project and keep you well informed about its progress. The expected cost of the renovation work is not always exactly as high as you had hoped, because no one can guarantee the condition of the terrain, walls, ceilings, plumbing, etc. And if you are thinking of doing a lot of the work yourself, remember that you will always need a permit, because the government is very careful about work near archaeological sites AND you will also have to declare your own work and pay IKA. Through our partners, you can have all the necessary renovation work done that you need and you will not take any risks.
The most flexible choice of all the options is to choose the right plot and build your own house, according to your plans. As mentioned, a competent and reliable architect/builder must be found, who will calculate all aspects of the construction process, who will not underestimate the total amount and who can give you the exact completion date, so that you can wait calmly until you can enjoy your home in Greece.
