⁠Greece’s Rising Potential as a Top Investment Destination

Greece continues to strengthen its position as one of the most attractive real estate and residency-by-investment destinations in Europe. With political stability, economic recovery, and strategic location bridging Europe, Asia, and Africa, the country offers a compelling case for global investors.

In 2025, Greece remains a magnet for foreign capital, especially in sectors like tourism, renewable energy, and real estate. The continued development of landmark projects like The Ellinikon — Europe’s largest urban regeneration — is reshaping the image of Athens and boosting demand for premium properties.

Additionally, Greece’s Golden Visa program, despite tighter regulations, still offers one of the most affordable paths to EU residency, especially when compared to similar programs in Portugal and Spain. Investors continue to see value in the combination of lifestyle, climate, safety, and long-term returns.

The rise of remote work and the trend of “living abroad” have also made Greece — with its islands, culture, and cost-effectiveness — a top pick among digital nomads and expats.

At Zeleia Investments, we believe Greece’s momentum is only beginning. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or an experienced investor, now is a strategic time to enter the Greek market.

Starting January 1 2025, prime zones such as Athens, Thessaloniki, Mykonos, and Santorini now require a minimum real‑estate investment of €800,000, while most other regions remain at €400,000. A few niche restoration or conversion projects still qualify at the previous €250,000 threshold.
