While Ireland, Portugal have ended their Golden Visa programme, and with Spain also soon to end it, Greece continues with its Permanent Residency programme, which is currently the fastest-selling and most economical in Europe. Under the Greek programme, foreign investors can obtain residency permits by making a minimum investment of €500,000, with some exceptions for certain areas such as Crete and Paros, which have a lower investment requirement of €250,000.
The programme has been popular among foreign investors, particularly those from China and Russia, and has been a significant source of foreign investment for the Greek economy. It is worth noting that Leptos Estates, a leading property developer in Greece, has been actively promoting its properties in Paros, Crete, Athens, and Santorini under the Greek Permanent Residency programme. Leptos Estates has been offering a range of properties that meet the programme's investment requirements, but also offers buyers the opportunity to start a new life in the Mediterranean. By investing in Greek real estate, foreign buyers not only gain residency permits but also the chance to enjoy the country's rich culture, beautiful landscapes, and favourable climate.
