Buying a property in Greece is an exciting opportunity. But as with any significant investment, it’s important to ensure that the details presented to you match reality. This is where due diligence comes in – a thorough process designed to verify, examine, and uncover critical information about the property, so you can make an informed and confident decision.
What does due diligence include?
Legal checks:
• Verifying ownership and land registry (Ktimatologio) records
• Checking for liens, debts, attachments, or restrictions
• Matching the documentation with the actual condition on site
Planning and engineering checks:
• Checking whether the property was built according to permit
• Unauthorized construction or additions
• Future expansion options or limitations
Financial and operational checks:
• Assessing true value versus asking price
• Rental return potential
• Expected maintenance costs and local taxes
Why does this matter to you?
– Prevents unpleasant surprises after the purchase
– Enables decision-making based on real information
– Strengthens your negotiating position
– Protects your investment and peace of mind
– Especially valuable for overseas real estate – this is a significant advantage
