A Greece Golden Visa through a EUR 400,000 property

Written by Global Immigrate consultants · Reviewed by Oscar Yip, Founder & Managing Director

Summary

Ms Hui’s Greece Golden Visa experience. She wanted a family base in Europe.

Background

Ms Hui, from Hong Kong, applied with her husband and two children. She wanted a family base in Europe.

Main concern

Her budget did not stretch to a EUR 800,000 property in Athens.

Our approach

In a EUR 400,000 area she chose a single property of more than 120 square metres and arranged a long-term let.

Process and outcome

She received five-year residence cards, and the property is let long term.

Adviser’s comment

Choosing the right area for your budget is more practical than chasing the most popular cities.

Greece Golden Visa application process

  1. Assessment and property search (1–2 months): We shortlist qualifying properties by budget and area.
  2. Purchase (1–3 months): Obtain a tax number, open an account and complete the purchase.
  3. Application (Per scheduling): Submit the residence application and register biometrics.
  4. Residence card (Depends on processing): Once approved, collect your five-year residence card.
