Greece has long captivated international buyers with its ancient heritage, breathtaking coastlines, and relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. Today, property for sale in Greece represents not just a lifestyle upgrade but a strategic opportunity for investors and holiday-home seekers alike.
From whitewashed villas on the islands of Mykonos and Santorini to city apartments in Athens or restored stone houses in the Peloponnese, Greece offers a diverse and accessible market. With competitive prices, improving infrastructure, and Golden Visa incentives, now is an ideal time to invest in Greek real estate — and Fraser Bond is here to guide you through the process.
Greece remains one of the most affordable markets in Southern Europe. Prices are significantly lower than in Spain, Italy, or France — offering excellent value, especially outside of the main tourist hubs.
Investors who spend €250,000 or more on Greek property may qualify for the Greek Golden Visa, which grants five-year residency (renewable) with visa-free Schengen travel for the entire family.
With over 30 million tourists annually, Greece supports strong demand for short-term holiday lets and long-term rentals — particularly in island and coastal destinations.
With 300+ days of sunshine a year, world-renowned cuisine, and a laid-back pace of life, Greece is ideal for retirees, remote workers, and holidaymakers seeking a better lifestyle.
Following a decade of correction, the Greek property market is rebounding steadily, particularly in urban and tourism-driven areas. Early investors are positioned for strong capital growth.
The capital is experiencing a revival, with regeneration projects, tourism growth, and increased interest from digital nomads. Key districts include:
Kolonaki – Luxury apartments in a central, high-end area
Plaka – Historic centre with traditional homes and tourist appeal
Glyfada and the Athenian Riviera – Beachfront living and strong rental yields
One of the world’s most iconic islands. High demand for villas and cliffside homes, ideal for short-term rentals and premium buyers.
A haven for international luxury buyers. Offers large villas, beach properties, and exclusive investment potential.
Greece’s largest island — with inland farmhouses, coastal homes, and city apartments in Heraklion and Chania. Great for year-round living.
Rising in popularity for retirees and investors, offering affordable stone houses, olive groves, and seaside villages with excellent value.
Known for their natural beauty and solid infrastructure. Ideal for second homes or lifestyle retreats with income potential.
Seaside Villas – With pools, terraces, and unobstructed views of the Aegean
City Apartments – Often restored or newly built, offering access to culture and commerce
Traditional Stone Houses – In mountain or village settings, popular with lifestyle buyers
New Developments and Resort Homes – Found in Athens Riviera, Crete, and island hotspots
Historic or Renovation Properties – Available at lower prices, ideal for restoration projects
