Properties under 80,000 Euros

There is plenty of choice among the many inhabited Greek Islands to pick up some delightful property for a budget of around 80,000 Euros. Apartments fit into this budget particularly well and most islands have a good selection on offer many with sea views and close proximity to the beach. There is also plenty of renovation property available and some may qualify for government renovation grants, which will cover up to 45% of the costs. Villas are few and far between within this price range, although that is not to say there are none available, you just have to look harder. It’s worth weighing up what the islands have to offer in terms of beautiful scenery, healthy living and a beautiful climate compared to what 80,000 GBP would buy you in the UK. The lovely authentic Greek architectural style and the attractive island locations make property ownership an attractive proposition whether it is for personal use or investment.
