Buying Land in Greece
In answer to Rosetta's story this is a sad situation but this does not apply to all areas of Greece. I am from the UK and working in the real estate business in a small family firm on the island of Rhodes. Due to the occupation of the Italians many years ago on the island, all land on Rhodes has been registered so there is legal documentation available to prove who owns what on the island for all land and property. In addition, if you work with a reliable agent, and there are some around including those I work for, they will assist you with the whole purchasing process using an experienced team of personnel including accountants, lawyers, notaries and so on to ensure that you can find your way through the Greek system. So please don't be worried ... buying/selling your dream property/land is possible without problems.
