Greece offers international investors a rare combination: a residency-by-investment route into the Schengen Area, a recovering property market with real upside, and a legal system where a notary — an independent public officer — guarantees the security of every transaction.
Our office works with buyers, sellers, and Golden Visa applicants from abroad. Below are the three areas where investors most often need a Greek notary, each with its own detailed guide.
Buying and selling property
Whether you are acquiring an apartment in Athens, a holiday home on an island, or selling a commercial space, the notary certifies the contract, verifies the title, confirms payment, and registers the deed with the Land Registry (Κτηματολόγιο). This is the step that makes the transfer legally valid.

Read the guide →Residency by investment
Greece's Golden Visa grants a renewable five-year residence permit — and visa-free Schengen travel — in exchange for a qualifying property investment. The threshold depends on the location and the type of property.

Signing from abroad
Most international investors never need to fly in for the signature. A Power of Attorney (πληρεξούσιο) authorises a trusted representative — often our office — to sign on your behalf. There are three valid ways to prepare it, each ending in a document ready to use in Greece.
Three ways to sign a Power of Attorney from abroad
A PoA signed at a foreign notary needs an Apostille and an official Greek translation; one signed at a Greek Consulate does not.
