The Greek Golden Visa property framework does not have one universal purchase threshold. Standard acquisitions depend on location, while qualifying changes of use and listed-building projects have separate lower-threshold rules. Tourism-related contractual routes involve different rights and evidence again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before comparing properties by price, identify the precise legal modality being proposed. This article compares the property and tourism-related framework under Article 100. It does not catalogue every Greek investment-residence category or repeat the full Greece Golden Visa programme page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four questions that distinguish the modalities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Modality<\/th>Minimum reference for a new transaction<\/th>The distinguishing question<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Standard property acquisition<\/td>\u20ac800,000 in the specified higher-threshold areas; \u20ac400,000 elsewhere<\/td>Which location and property conditions apply?<\/td><\/tr>
Qualifying change to residential use<\/td>\u20ac250,000<\/td>Has the legally required change of use been completed and evidenced?<\/td><\/tr>
Qualifying listed-building investment<\/td>\u20ac250,000<\/td>Is the protected status established, and what restoration obligations follow?<\/td><\/tr>
Qualifying tourist-accommodation timeshare or long-term complex agreement<\/td>\u20ac800,000 or \u20ac400,000 according to the specified location rules<\/td>What rights does the qualifying contract actually grant?<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The amounts are qualifying references, not total transaction budgets. Earlier acquisitions, transitional cases and renewals may need a separate historical analysis. Do not apply a new-buyer summary mechanically to an older file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standard acquisition: location and one-property conditions matter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Article 100, as replaced by Article 64 of Law 5100\/2024, sets \u20ac800,000 for Attica, the Thessaloniki regional unit, Mykonos, Thira and islands with more than 3,100 residents under the relevant census. Other regions have a \u20ac400,000 reference. The standard purchase is in one property; built property, or property with a building permit issued, requires at least 120 square metres of main spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ask the lawyer and engineer to identify the address, legal property description and qualifying main-space measurement. A listing’s advertised area and the legally relevant area should not be assumed to match. Likewise, a collection of individually attractive apartments is not automatically one qualifying transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, a buyer comparing a compact apartment in an \u20ac800,000 area with a larger property elsewhere needs more than two asking prices. The location rule, legally relevant size, title and exact transaction structure must be checked before deciding which proposal is viable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Change of use: the lower threshold is conditional<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The current Mitos procedure describes a \u20ac250,000 acquisition involving one property whose main spaces change to residential use, without the standard 120-square-metre limit. The qualifying change must be completed after 5 April 2024 and before the residence application. The required technical report is central evidence; industrial-property cases have additional conditions concerning previous industrial activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A building that could be converted is not the same as a completed qualifying conversion. Ask which planning act supports the change, who carries out the work, who certifies completion and when those documents will exist. A marketing label such as conversion project does not answer those questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep the construction budget and completion obligations separate from the qualifying acquisition value. If the transaction depends on future works, obtain advice on the contractual protections and the consequences of delay. Do not treat an expected completion date as existing application evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
