Reasons for investing in an apartment in Athens
Greece offers a variety of property options with different prices, configurations and locations. The growing economy, warm climate, tourist activity and business opportunities also influence the Republic's demand from investors.

Buying apartments in Athens for investment is profitable for the long term if the owners decide to rent them out. Athens is a famous tourist centre where many travellers vacation to enjoy the history, architecture and local cuisine. 2023 was a record year for visits to the capital, with Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport welcoming over 7 million non-residents. In addition, the city is becoming more popular for relocating local and foreign professionals, students and businesspeople looking for long-term investments in real estate.
Rental prices for apartments vary depending on the neighbourhood. More expensive properties are located near the historical centre and in the suburbs with luxurious recreational areas. Apartments with one bedroom are more profitable – from 5.5 to 8% in different regions of the capital.
Potential buyers can choose housing under construction, which costs less than already completed complexes.
