Already in Greece and Ready to Buy a Property?

Get Immediate Legal Support for a Safe Purchase

If you have found a property (or are about to place a deposit), you need legal due diligence and contractual protection before moving forward. Our certified lawyers handle everything – quickly, clearly, and with full representation at every step.

Why You Need Legal Help Before You Sign Anything

already in greece ready to buy a property

Many foreign buyers in Greece commit to a property without checking:

  • Title ownership
  • Building legality
  • Planning permissions
  • Zoning restrictions
  • Outstanding debts or mortgages
  • Seller’s ability to legally sell
  • Validity of the pre-contract

If you are already here and planning to move fast, proper legal support is essential to avoid financial risk, delays, or invalid contracts.

What We Do for Buyers Already in Greece

1. Legal Review

We examine your property – titles, legality, documents, and seller background. You receive clear guidance.

2. On-Site Coordination & Representation

If needed, our team coordinates with:

‣ Realtors
Engineers
Notaries
Banks

We ensure every party follows the correct legal process.

3. Deposit & Pre-Contract Protection

If the seller is asking for a deposit:

We draft the pre-contract agreement
We review any document the seller or agent provides
We ensure the terms protect your rights and deposit
We coordinate with the notary for a safe and valid process

Deposits in Greece are often requested early in the negotiation.

Our role is to ensure you do not commit to terms that expose you to legal or financial risks.

4. Full Due Diligence (Title & Building Legality)

We verify:

20-year title history
Mortgages, liens, debts
Encumbrances, claims, or third-party rights
Seller’s legal capacity to sell
Land Registry accuracy and registration status

Building legality (zoning, permits, extensions) is examined by a certified engineer, not by the lawyer.

We coordinate the process and ensure you receive the engineer’s official report before signing any binding agreement.

5. Notary & Contract Signing Support

Whether you are present in Greece or prefer full remote handling:

We draft and review the final contract
We represent you at the notar
We can sign via Power of Attorney (optional)
We oversee the property transfer
We register the contract with the Land Registry

Finish your purchase legally, safely, and without delays.

Ideal for Buyers Who Are:

‣ Visiting Greece and have found a property

Already living in Greece (e.g. expats)

On tight timelines to complete a deal

Needing independent legal guidance alongside the real estate agent

Ready to make an offer or pay a deposit

Needing immediate legal guidance

Documents We Can Review Immediately

Most foreign buyers do not have all documents at this stage, and this is normal.

We can start with any of the following:

  • The property listing / link
  • Basic information provided by the seller or agent
  • Drafts of pre-contracts or reservation agreements
  • Emails or messages regarding terms, price, or deposit
  • Any documents the seller has already shared

From there, we request the complete set of legal documents directly from the seller’s side and guide the process.

You don’t need to collect all documents yourself.

We coordinate directly with the seller, agent, engineer, and notary to obtain the full legal file required for due diligence.
