Greece Residency Program

Greece is strategically located at the crossroad of Europe,  Asia and Africa.

Greece is known for its rich historical and cultural heritage, stunning natural landscapes, and significant contributions to Western civilisation. Greece boasts over 6,000 islands, with famous ones including Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete, known for their picturesque views, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant nightlife. The mainland features stunning landscapes like Mount Olympus, the mythical home of Greek gods and scenic areas such as Meteora.

Greece attracts millions of tourists annually, drawn by its history, culture, and scenic beauty. Athens, the capital offers a mix of ancient history and modern lifestyles, while Thessaloniki is known for its cultural festivals and vibrant nightlife.

Greek house prices continue to accelerate in the recent years, amidst strong demand from foreign homebuyers, continued economic growth, and growing residential construction activity in the country. Despite this, the real estate prices remain relatively low comparing to many other countries which again acts a magnet to foreign investor who wish to invest or relocate to a popular tourist destination.
