Legal Advice & Conveyancing

We can ensure you have the best legal help if you decide to proceed with Crete property  purchase. We recommend that a local Greek lawyer be appointed to act on your behalf.

Property Management & Caretaking

If a property is a second home, it can be a worry when left empty and the owners are away. In 1988 we set up our first caretaking service, which is now comprehensively tailored to the property involved. We can regularly inspect, pay relevant bills such as the utilities, open and air the house, and organise any maintenance work that may need doing. Checking and clearing gutters, tiles, looking after plants and so on can all be arranged.
Letting Your Crete Property

Whether it’s to friends or on a financial basis, we can organise a welcoming service. This can include transport from the airport, and introducing the visitors to the house and gardens, and how everything works. This would include; of course, making sure everything is ready for the next set of guests. Everything would be found clean, linen ready, with a welcoming pack in the kitchen. Laundry, cleaning and closing down your home would be done after you or your guests depart.
