We are German real estate agents and specialize in real estate from Crete. In addition to finding suitable properties on Crete for you, our portfolio also includes organizing viewing appointments on Crete.
We are at your side at every stage of your property purchase in Crete and will accompany you from the first conversation through to the notary contract.Your ideas are important to us, such as the location on Crete in combination with sea views, proximity to the beach, sandy beach, stone house or swimming pool. There are also important points to consider, such as the dimensions of the rooms in a property. In Greece and therefore also on Crete, the walls are included, i.e. external wall to external wall. In contrast to German real estate, here measurements are taken from the inside wall to the inside wall.

Please also note that when specifying the location of real estate offers on Crete, these are approximate values.
The Greek energy certificate (if required) is available during the inspection.Additional costs such as commission, real estate transfer tax, notary fees and legal fees are added to the stated purchase price. You can find more details on our homepage at INFOS.
All properties from Crete offered through our portal have been carefully checked and translated. However, errors can creep in, so we assume no liability for the accuracy of the information.
