The Reality: No Centralized MLS Unlike the United States, Greece does not have a centralized Multiple Listing Service (MLS). The market is fragmented, and online aggregators (portals similar to Zillow or Trulia) often display inventory that is outdated or no longer available. Note: Because inventory moves rapidly, we cannot guarantee that a specific property advertised online is still active. However, when you arrive, we commit to showing you the best available options that match your criteria.

How We Are Different: True Buyer Representation In Greece, it is common for agents and developers to function solely as listing agents, pushing their own exclusive inventory to close a deal quickly. We operate differently. We bring the US Model of Buyer Representation to Greece.

Fiduciary Duty: We work for you, the buyer, not the seller.

Co-Brokerage: We cooperate with other professionals, developers, and listing agents across the country. We split our commission (co-broke) to ensure you have access to the entire market, not just our internal listings.

⚠️ The "Procuring Cause" Trap (Important) To protect your interests and allow us to negotiate on your behalf, it is critical that you do not contact listing agents or developers directly.

In the US, "Procuring Cause" determines who gets paid. In Greece, if you call or email a listing agent/developer directly, they will "register" your name in their database ("I have this client"). Once this happens:

We are legally blocked from representing you on that specific property.

You lose your advocate and are left to negotiate directly with the seller’s representative, whose job is to get the highest price for the seller.

The "Open Listing" Risk Since there is no MLS, many owners give their property to multiple agents as an "Open Listing." This results in the same property appearing on different sites with different prices and conflicting data. If you call five different agents, you might be inquiring about the same house five times, signaling desperation to the seller and driving up the price.

The Strategy: How We Work Together

Browse Freely: Feel free to search public portals and listing sites.

Send Links to Us: When you find a property of interest, copy the link and send it to us.

We Vet the Listing: We will cross-reference the property across the market to find the true price, check for potential legal/zoning red flags, and verify availability.

We Schedule: We arrange all showings and accompany you, ensuring you remain represented.
