Where to buy [property] in Greece, from Athens to Zante

The British have always loved Greece for its undeveloped islands, rustic villas and cat-filled restaurants overlooking crystal-clear bays. Or as Dimitrios Papadimoulis, the European Parliament vice-president, put it in his April statement on Brexit: “Greece and Britain have a relationship. You’ve shared our history, liked our sun and sand and enjoyed a couple of drinks in our tavernas.”

Greece to obtain its own credit bureau in 2017

Greece aspires to have a credit rating authority for taxpayers and businesses by the end of the year.

The idea behind this new institution is to collect data from every possible source regarding consistency or unreliability regarding payments, the grading of people and companies based on that criterion, and the utilization of this rating in drafting loan contracts in a more objective manner.
