Real estate and property

Buying, selling or protecting property in Greece starts with a lawyer who works only for you. We check titles at the Land Registry or Cadastre, coordinate with the notary and protect your ownership if it is challenged.

What we handle

  • Title searches and checks for liens and other burdens
  • Purchase and sale of homes, land and commercial property
  • Coordination with the notary and the other party's lawyer
  • Signing on your behalf under a power of attorney
  • Registration of the deed in your name
  • Court actions to protect ownership and possession
  • Leases and recovery of unpaid rent

How it works

  1. Agreement on price: once you have found the property, retain your own lawyer before signing anything.
  2. Title search: we examine the titles at the local Land Registry or Cadastre.
  3. Corrections: if needed, the seller fixes title issues or removes old liens.
  4. Deed of sale: the notary, chosen by the buyer, drafts the deed with input from both lawyers.
  5. Signing and registration: the deed is signed in person or by proxy and registered in your name.

Documents usually needed

  • Passport or ID
  • Greek tax number (ΑΦΜ), which we can obtain for you
  • Proof that the purchase funds were transferred from your bank abroad to a Greek bank account
  • The seller's title deeds (requested through the seller's lawyer)
  • Power of attorney, if you will not be present
