Properties’ PricesDuring the last few years Greece has been known worldwide for the economic recession that has been through. The economic crisis has had a significant impact on the prices of the properties. Statistics during these years showed that the properties’ prices have been sharply decreased by 30-50%. Thus, the current economic situation in Greece could be exploited as a unique chance to invest in one of the most beautiful places in the world! “Value for Money”: The economic field of constructions has been edgy for years for the Greek economy. In simple words, this means that there is a huge variety of properties, of very high quality, to choose from. The minimum cost of 250,000€ for a property purchase, in addition to the low property prices, compared to those of other EU countries demonstrate that the combination of value and quality can prove to be a real bargain. However, as any arousing bargain, this can not last forever. There is a worldwide growing interest in investments which could lead to a gradual value rising. This means that anyone really interested should not delay investing at the right moment… which is now!

Due to the country's uniquegeography and rich topography a great variety of climate subtypes, always within the Mediterranean climate frame, are encountered in several regions of Greece. Surrounded by the sea, Greece has a long (total 16,000 km) breathtaking coastline, and numerous islands which combined with the hot summer weather turn to be an ideal vacation destination. The visitor can admire a highly diversified landscape: beaches stretching over many kilometers, sheltered bays and coves, sandy beaches with sand-dunes, pebble beaches, coastal caves with steep rocks and dark colored sand typical of volcanic soil and coastal wetlands. The ideal climate, safe waters and small distances between ports and coasts, and the high level of tourist services have made the Greek islands extremely popular among Greek and foreign visitors. Many of the Greek beaches have been awarded the blue flag under the European Blue Flag Program, providing not only swimming, but also scuba diving, snorkeling, water skiing, sailing and windsurfing.

Culture – History - PhilosophyGreece has a long history, traces of which can be detected nowadays. Travelling to Greece is a route in the evolution of ideas and arts. Democracy was born in Greece and the Ancient Greek civilization is a stepping stone for the modern western civilization. The Classical Greek philosophers have had the highest influence on the western civilization. The geographic location was a reason that made the Greeks travel and make colonies in many areas in the Mediterranean Sea and along the coasts of the Black Sea, exchanging ideas and knowledge with other ancient nations like the Egyptians, the Phoenicians the Persians and nations around the Mediterranean. During its history, Greece had glorious times, during the Golden Age of Pericles of Athens, the Hellenistic times of Great Alexander and during the Byzantine times, when the Byzantine Empire thrived for almost 1000 years, the longest lived empire ever. The ancient Greek monuments like the Parthenon have affected the Architecture of the western world dramatically and many famous contemporary buildings have been built according to this architectural style. Today’s visitors to Greece have the opportunity to trace the “fingerprints” of Greek history from the Paleolithic Era to the Roman Period in the hundreds of archaeological sites, as well as in the archaeological museums and collections that are scattered throughout the country. Greece was the mother country of the Olympic Games in ancient times and for this reason it hosted their revival, the first Modern Olympic Games in 1896 in Athens. In 2004 the Olympic Games returned to their place of birth and were held successfully in Athens. The preparation for the Games helped the improvement of the infrastructure in Athens and many other Greek cities. Last but not least, one of the most entertaining and enticing aspects of Greek culture is its elaborate mythology that involves gods, heroes, deeds, and mortals, all of which colored the physical world with elaborate stories and personalities. Myths, legends, deeds, and heroes permeated ancient Greek thought, enriching a large portion of literature and art.
