Prosperty revolutionises the way the real estate industry works making the selling, buying and renting of property simple, transparent and efficient for all!

Maria lives in London, but every time she opens Instagram, she’s captivated by snapshots of Athens: trendy cafés and restaurants, lively neighborhoods, cultural events, and bustling squares filled with people. Each year when she visits Greece, even for just a few days, she feels the country is transforming for the better. Streets feel more alive, neighborhoods more refined, daily life more organized. And most importantly: the real estate market is starting to reveal genuine opportunities.

This summer, as she lands at Athens International Airport on a warm morning, that feeling becomes stronger than ever. The city she loves has truly changed, and Maria realizes she’s ready to take the next step.

Enjoying her first coffee in Kifissia, a thought crosses her mind: “Maybe it’s time to buy a property. Something that generates income today, and one day could become my home”. The numbers back her up: property values in Athens and Thessaloniki have risen sharply in recent years, while demand for rental apartments continues to grow. A smart investment now could deliver steady returns tomorrow.

But buying a property from abroad is rarely straightforward. Which neighborhoods have consistent demand? Are the prices realistic? What’s involved in the legal and technical checks? How long will the contract take? And can she even get a mortgage from a Greek bank while living permanently overseas?

There’s still bureaucracy to navigate and she needs trustworthy partners to handle every detail: from clarifying her questions, to managing the legal process, to preparing the property for rental immediately after purchase.

That’s where Prosperty steps in. Not just another real estate agency, but a reliable partner that provides full guidance and peace of mind, powered by data and market expertise. Maria now has access to in-depth insights on each property: area charts, valuations, historical performance, and market trends—all clear, transparent, and backed by evidence. For the first time, her decision isn’t based on photos or word-of-mouth—it’s based on facts.

The very next day, she visits her first apartment. With Prosperty taking care of the legal and technical due diligence, Maria can focus on how the space feels and how she’ll make the most of it. When it comes time for contracts and financing, every step is structured, transparent, and stress-free, even with Maria thousands of kilometers away.

Once the purchase is complete, the apartment is rental-ready. Prosperty handles everything from securing a reliable tenant to managing the lease, so Maria can immediately see her investment generating returns.

Later, sipping her coffee in Syntagma Square, Maria looks around the city she loves and smiles. She didn’t just buy a property. She secured a safe, strategic investment with long-term returns and the peace of mind of having a trusted partner by her side through every step: from selection and checks to financing and property management.

With Prosperty at their side, Greeks living abroad can finally invest back home with confidence, transparency, and professionalism, without stress, and without wasting time.
