Advantages
  • Real estate prices and generally lower than in Europe;
  • The best value for money for real estate;
  • A safe place to live and raise children. There is virtually no crime on the island;
  • Relaxed lifestyle, natural healthy food, plenty of light (about 300 sunny days a year);
  • The highest life expectancy in Europe;
  • The Greeks are friendlier and more hospitable than the other nations of Southern Europe;
  • Crete is 20–25 years behind Spain and Portugal and 15 years behind Cyprus in terms of pace and level of property prices. Prices are, in fact, very low if compared with the coast of Spain. In this regard, before the real estate investor opens up an excellent investment opportunity;
  • In the past few years, people from all over the world have been buying property and investing in Crete, considering the island as the ”new Cyprus“;
  • High political stability compared to other Eastern European countries in which to invest;
  • Unlike other Mediterranean and Southern European countries, which attract real estate investors (e. g. Turkey, Croatia, Egypt, Morocco), Greece is part of the European Union;
  • The people of Crete seem to be the friendliest people in Greece;
  • The island is a delightful beauty, a huge variety of landscapes and scenery. Every settlement is different from each other;
  • There are currently 3 airports on the island; ferries depart daily from Piraeus (Athens) and Peloponnesus;
  • The largest island in Greece, full of life in both winter and summer. More economically stable and independent than other Greek islands, as the people of Crete produce everything themselves.
Location and nearby infrastructure

Almyrida was first inhabited by the Phoenicians, many centuries ago, and traces of their settlements can be seen on the hillside of Mavroharakas. Until recently it has been just a fishermen village of 50-100 residents. Due to its wonderful Mediterranean climate, its two clear, sandy beaches and its beautiful nature, the village has recently evolved into a tourist resort. Almyrida is now famous for its taverns’ fresh fish and local delicacies as well as its quality nightlife. The natural surroundings and neighbouring villages offer endless hours of trekking and exploring while there is always one or the other traditional celebration or festival with its local food, music and dances taking place.

The most important archaeological sight of Almyrida is what remains of a three-aisled Basilica of the early Christian era (6th century AD), with its restored, extraordinary mosaic floors. On Finikias hill, right above the Basilica site, one can see the ruins of a greek-roman city. Greek-roman ruins are also found on the islet of Karga, just off Almyrida.

      FAQs
      • How to make payments for property abroad?

        Tranio has a transaction department that provides clients with safe and convenient payment solutions. We monitor changes in currency legislation, strengthen partnerships with banks in different countries, ensuring the legality of transfers and minimal commissions. You can pay in roubles for purchases in Tranio's own development projects abroad.

      • Is it possible to obtain a residence permit when buying property?

        In some countries — yes. Such programmes for obtaining a residence permit in exchange for property investments are called Golden Visas. The most popular Golden Visas in Europe are offered by Greece and Cyprus. In the Persian Gulf, the UAE and Oman also offer residence permits for property owners.

        However, if you need a residence permit to gain visa-free access to Schengen countries or to open an account in Europe, it's not absolutely necessary to buy property. Greece, Spain, Italy, Finland, France, and Portugal have accessible residence permit programmes.

        The choice of programme depends on your goals. Explore all available programmes or contact Tranio's migration department for consultation.

      • How long does the property registration process take?

        The registration period depends on legislation and established procedures in local property markets. Usually, the entire process from selecting a property to registering ownership takes at least a month. In our experience, the fastest transactions occur in the UAE — currently one of the most technologically advanced markets with land legislation specifically designed for foreigners. In Cyprus, registration will take 1–2 months, in Greece — from 3 months.

        In some countries, such as Thailand, transaction registration at the land department occurs after the property is commissioned. Signing a purchase agreement with a developer in Thailand takes from two weeks to a month, while registration at the land department takes no more than a week.
