Greece is something of an enigma when it comes to buying a property. Its islands and coastline offer an unparalleled range setting across a huge area, yet there has been very little development on anything but a small scale. As a result, its often easiest to get a house built for you.
The integrated resort, with hotel spa and leisure facilities alongside real estate, is virtually unheard of in Greece , and there are only a handful of golf courses in the entire country. This though is changing. In Crete there is a 12 hole golf course.
Crete is the forefront of development with a lot of estate agents and a lot of house on offer. Mykonos is one of the most expensive islands in which to buy, with Corfu and increasingly Kefalonia among the most popular with Britons. But most developments consist of a few houses that are often build to order. Greece is one of the most attractive countries to buy.
