Aghia Paraskevi, Attica, Greece

A beautiful garden flat, in the newly built Sky Garden Residence, in leafy Agia Paraskevi suburb of Athens, with outstanding Metro transport conveniences a few hundred metres away and access to the Attica Circular Highway, for fast and safe driving to the airport, the ferry ports, the Athenian Riviera and the entire modern Greek Highway system.

The apartment is entered at the ground level, via the 4x4 metres' garden, through the steel plated entrance door, opening to the open plan kitchen, with dining table, leading to the living room, which itself opens to the patio / garden and the lovely cooling pool. The first of the three bedrooms, a double bedroom with good wardrobe spaces and the ample downstairs bathroom, are next to the living room space, the bedroom having direct access to the garden / patio and the pool.

From this level, a modern, incorporated in the architectural design, flight of stairs, leads to the level above, the first space of which could house a secondary kitchen or be utilised as a second living room, a cooling relaxing area or a study or home office. This space leads to the master bedroom, with impressive wardrobe space and the third double bedroom, both sharing an ample shower-room and both having access to a large almost 7 m2 balcony, overlooking the garden / patio and the pool.

This garden flat apartment is allocated its own underground parking space, as well as an own storage space of ample for the purpose footage.

The apartments are all  characterised by their large openings to maximise air circulation, all fitted with high-tech and high aesthetics double glazing and the latest LED technology lightings are installed all over the apartments, characteristics all giving to properties an A+ energy rating.

The position of the apartment, as well as, its desirability as a modern abode, would satisfy not only the new owners living it, but also will attract strong interest from young families of business executive background, who always appreciate comfort, style and proximity to airports, Metro and highway systems, not to mention good schools. Important for families with children, most of the best (and almost always bilingual) schools in Athens, for primary, high school, colleges and unis, are in Agia Paraskevi or adjacent to this leafy suburb and easily accessed by car or bike and of course local basses.

Because of these attributes, investing in this particular apartment could produce very substantial rental income, which consequently would make borrowing, not only on its intrinsic brick and mortar value, but also on its rental income potential, on a mortgage basis, so much easier to obtain and to repay.

Greek banks would be happy to finance this property's  acquisition, offering mortgage finance for up to 65% of the property's value, at an interest rate starting at 2.4%,  for up to 20 years repayment. One could then live oneself in this super apartment or let it to third parties or even to use it as an AirBnB-type STR (Short Term Rentals), operated either by oneself or via a specialist operator.

Strong evidence and proof of the LTR (Long Term Rental) income potential, is that the developers themselves, would be ready to sign a 5 year leasing contract with you, for managing and letting your property, with a guaranteed interest of 4% of the acquisition value of the property, per annum. In this case, they would undertake to equipe all furniture, decorations and appliances, at their own cost, with no cost to you. The developers are hoteliers as well and are therefore licensed to manage any suitable properties, like this one, as hospitality outlets.

On the mortgaging issue, we would be delighted to introduce you to top mortgage brokers, who would be able, free of charge, to successfully handle your mortgage application to any of the high-street Greek banks.

If you would like on top of acquiring this beautiful garden apartment, to also have the benefits, normally attached to a Greek Golden Visa, which in Athens and most Greece has become quite pricy (? 800K+), we would like to remind you, that you would probably qualify for a Greek FIP-Visa, a Financially Independent Persons' Visa, which gives 3-year visas, renewable, to people who can prove that they have secured income of over ? 3,500 per month or other secure means, equal to this. A Greek FIP-Visa, allows one to work from Greece, trading ones' services and wares all over the world and have unincumbered access to the Shenghen Area of the EU.
