Real estate is a new “stock” in which the Greeks and foreigners prefer to invest, seeing that they offer extra cost and profit. In many areas of the capital, houses become over-demand as soon as they appear on the market. They change hands for a maximum of two months, and only three years ago they were not in demand.
The real estate market has overcome the difficult days of the crisis. It seems that it has warmed up well, and real estate brokers are expecting even better days in the coming months due to a suspension of VAT for three years. This measure will give a new impetus to the real estate market and is expected to lead to the sale of about 100,000 real estate properties that have been in the hands of developers for many years due to the crisis and high taxes.
