Reasons to invest in Athens

The timing is perfect

Athens has recently become one of Europe’s hottest destinations for real estate investors. House prices have risen consistently since 2018, and specifically by 16.5% in 20221. Yet, it remains more attractive than comparable capitals such as Madrid and Lisbon, with city center prices that are 35% and 45% lower respectively2.

Tourism is booming

Not only is Athens the top tourist destination in Greece even compared to Santorini, but it also took 7th place in the most visited cities in Europe in 20223, surpassing Rome, Berlin, and other prominent cities.

Since 2019, visitor numbers have jumped by 80%4, and the demand for short-term rentals has increased by 20%5.

Athens is a starting point for travelers

Due to its 167 flight routes and 81 maritime routes, Athens is the best arrival spot in Greece, and the preferred kickoff point for traveling across the country including island hopping.

Getting around the city, ports, and airport is easy too—the Greek capital has 6 metro and tram lines, with another metro line in construction.

Massive development is taking place

Alongside the historic city center, a smart district is coming to life on the Athens Riviera. Initiated in 2022, The Ellinikon is Europe's greatest urban regeneration project with an €8 billion investment.

The world-class “city within a city” is projected to boost house prices along the capital and host a million visitors annually.

Low threshold for EU Golden Visa

In addition to a steady increase in property values and high demand for rentals, non-EU investors and their families can benefit from the Greek Golden Visa Program.

The minimum investment for getting a permanent residency and further applying for Greek citizenship is one of the lowest among EU countries, starting from 250,000 €.

Big thanks to Athinon for helping me secure two awesome apartments in Athens! They are total pros—found the best deals, and handled all the paperwork.

Athinon’s not just about closing deals; they go above and beyond. Sorted me out with a reliable lawyer and accountant, and now both places are rented, giving me a solid ROI.

For a smooth property hunt in Athens, Roy's your guy. Seriously, A to Z, he's got it nailed. Highly recommended!

Athinon provided a super professional service—from finding the best properties out there and negotiating with sellers—to completing the purchase.

They have a friendly English-speaking local team that takes care of all the bureaucracy and documents needed.

My two apartments have been rented for years now, providing me with a double-digit gross yield, which is more than I expected. I recommend their service to anyone looking to acquire a property in Athens hassle-free.
