Why buy a house in Greece?

Why buy a house in Greece?

Greece is more than a popular vacation destination. It is also a country where living equals enjoying a relaxed lifestyle, mild climate, hospitable culture and delicious food. In addition, house prices in many parts of Greece are significantly lower than in the Netherlands or other southern European countries. This makes it attractive to both investors and private buyers looking for a place under the sun.

When you are looking for a property in Greece, you can go in any direction. For example, would you like to live in a big city or do you prefer island life, such as Crete, Zakynthos or Lefkas? Greece offers a wide variety of locations to suit a variety of living preferences and the range is surprisingly affordable. Especially outside the tourist hotspots, prices are relatively low and rentals on the islands are popular thanks to the growing tourist industry.

Property on mainland or island

Property on mainland or island

When buying a house in Greece, the question quickly arises: do you choose the mainland or one of the many islands? Both options have their own charms and advantages. The mainland often offers more practical amenities, such as larger cities, better infrastructure and easier access to services like health care and schools. Regions such as the Peloponnese or Central Greece are popular with people looking for tranquility, nature and an authentic Greek atmosphere, but would like to be accessible year-round.

Islands such as Crete, Rhodes, Corfu and Zakynthos are popular not only as vacation destinations, but also as locations for a second home or rental project. Just keep in mind that outside the tourist season, islands can be quieter and sometimes have fewer amenities, especially if they are smaller islands. So the choice between mainland and island depends mainly on your personal preferences and what the intended use of the house in Greece is.

Can I as a Dutchman buy a house in Greece?

Can I as a Dutchman buy a house in Greece?

As a Dutch citizen, you can buy a house in Greece without restrictions. Since both the Netherlands and Greece are part of the European Union, there are no restrictions for EU citizens wishing to purchase real estate such as a home abroad. However, you must adhere to a number of administrative and legal steps. For example, it is mandatory to apply for a Greek tax number (AFM) before you can buy a property. Also, you will usually open a Greek bank account where payments and additional fees will be processed.

In Greece, title deeds and land registrations are sometimes less transparent than in the Netherlands, so legal guidance is recommended. As a buyer, you should also take into account additional costs such as transfer tax, notary fees, lawyer’s fees and registration fees. These come on top of the purchase price and usually amount to between 7% and 10% of the total amount. Despite these extra steps, buying a property in Greece remains quite feasible and legally reliable, provided you get proper guidance.
