How to Buy Real Estate with Crypto in Greece: A Step-by-Step Guide

1. Onboarding:

Your journey begins with the onboarding process in our client registry. You will be required to complete a brief form with your personal or company details, including your passport or EU ID, tax residency, and the wallet addresses to be used for the crypto transaction.
This information will be used to assess your eligibility as a client under Greek regulations.

Throughout this process, your privacy will be safeguarded in compliance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and international anti-money laundering (AML) laws. We will provide a response within a maximum of 48 hours.
For seamless communication, a direct channel will be established between you and one of our legal advisors.

2. Private Legal Agreement:

Once your eligibility as a client is confirmed, we will formalize our professional relationship through the signing of a private agreement that outlines the scope of our legal services throughout the property acquisition process in Greece.

3. Property Selection & Reservation:

After reviewing available properties and selecting your preferred option, the property will be reserved upon signing a preliminary deposit agreement with the seller. This will temporarily remove the property from the market and secure your rights as a buyer.

While we do not conduct property searches directly, you are welcome to present a property of interest, or we can connect you with trusted real estate agencies across Greece, including Athens, Thessaloniki, Crete, and the Greek Islands.

4. Legal Due Diligence:

We conduct a comprehensive legal due diligence process to ensure a safe and transparent transaction. This includes verification of ownership titles, property records, building permits, planning status, outstanding debts, service charges, and any encumbrances or restrictions.

Our team will also assist in drafting reservation contracts and sale agreements, and accompany you to all required legal formalities. Additionally, we provide guidance on the taxes and legal requirements applicable to non-resident investors in Greece.

5. Cryptocurrency Conversion & Payment Process:

Through our licensed partners, we facilitate the secure and legal conversion of your cryptocurrency into euros. This ensures that the transaction is fully compliant with Greek financial and anti-money laundering regulations.

You will not be required to register with a crypto exchange — our legal team handles the process through regulated OTC desks. We support multiple cryptocurrencies and networks, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), USDT, and USDC.

6. Signing of the Public Deed & Ownership Transfer:

We coordinate the signing of the public deed before a Greek notary, ensure payment of the Property Transfer Tax, and complete the official registration of the property under your name with the Land Registry and Cadastral Office.

Upon request, we can also issue a compliance report (AML) certifying the legal origin of funds — a valuable document for visa, tax, or banking purposes.

7. Post-Sale Legal Support:

Even after the purchase is complete, our team continues to assist you with important administrative tasks such as utility registrations (electricity, water, etc.), property tax declarations (ENFIA), and legal representation for non-residents.

We also support clients who wish to apply for the Greek Golden Visa, provided the investment meets the minimum legal requirements.
