Greece offers a regulated route to European residency through investment in real estate. By acquiring qualifying residential property, investors may obtain long‑term residence rights in Greece and benefit from visa‑free travel within the Schengen Area.
Greece is currently the only European country where Schengen residency can be obtained through residential real estate investment, providing an accessible and efficient alternative to suspended European residency programs.
