Greece Golden Visa · Athens-based team
Why €250,000 in Athens: these are commercial premises legally converted into homes. Since law 5100/2024 that is the only route at this price — a standard Athens flat starts at €800,000.
Our legal, accounting and property teams in Athens run it end-to-end: one trip for biometrics, a residency card in 6–9 months, rental income from the day you buy.
Curated Selection
Handpicked properties that qualify for the Greece Golden Visa programme — each vetted by our team for legal compliance and rental potential.
You buy a qualifying property; the residency follows for the whole family. No minimum stay, no language test, renewable for as long as you keep the property.

Article 64 of law 5100/2024 bans short-term letting of any Golden Visa property — a €50,000 fine, and in serious cases the permit itself. So the question is not whether your flat will be let long-term. It is who runs it after the lawyers go home.
For 27 owners, most of them living abroad. Tenant screening, rent collection, repairs, the ΑΑΔΕ filing — exactly the work your flat needs from month one.
The lawyer who files your application, the engineer who checks the title and the manager who finds your tenant sit in one office in Athens. Nobody hands you on.
Our management fee comes out of rent that actually arrives. An agency that only sells you a property has no stake in what happens the year after.

Every page in this business shows you the upside. Here is the part worth asking us about on the call.
The €250,000 route needs commercial space legally turned into a home. A municipality can refuse on zoning or structural grounds, and a building’s own regulation can forbid it outright. We list a unit only when its change of use is granted — or we say on the card that it is pending.
A finished, converted flat gets you to a residency card in 6–9 months. A unit still under conversion realistically takes 12–18 months from the first payment, because the conversion has to be complete before the application can be filed.
Not a preference — a €50,000 fine under article 64 and, in serious cases, the loss of the permit. If the plan was Airbnb income, this programme is the wrong instrument.
Law 5100/2024 moved Athens from €250,000 to €800,000 and left conversions as the only entry at €250,000. We tell you what the law says today and put the date on it. Nobody can promise it will hold.
This is not legal advice. It is what we would want to know before wiring €250,000 to another country.
