No signs of slowing down for the coastal property rally in Attica: holiday homes near the shore are sought after even beyond the standard Athenian Riviera options of Faliron and Glyfada. Owners no longer rent out properties for the summer season, choosing instead to sell at premium prices reaching up to 4,500 Euros in areas such as Porto Rafti and Rafina, quiet, smaller, yet organized communities that have for years served as classic weekend getaway destinations for Athenians.

Holiday homes have turned out to be a solid investment product for owners, seeing that local and foreign buyers are in the market for vacation homes along the coveted Athenian coastal front. Non-EU citizens, specifically, are expected to expedite their Greek property purchases with the 250,000 Euros limit within the next two months, right before the investment thresholds for the Golden Visa go up.

Coastal properties in areas near the Athens Airport, such as Lavrion and Markopoulo Mesogaias are also high-demand on short-term rental platforms. Short-term rental turnover has skyrocketed in recent years, thanks to the extension of the holiday season and the arrival of digital nomads, with annual return on investment reaching or even exceeding 27,000 Euros.
