BBC-Greek Series

2011-08-16T03:32:00.000-07:00

The web BBC articles dedicated to the Greek Economy are increasing. The last posted video article is:

Can tourism save the Greek economy?

In that quite attractive question, may we reply? Well, answer is: tourism definitely can help. Tourists in fact help local, at their majority, family based companies around tourism. But their money, even if you pay big tourism complexes, I really doubt which part is collected by the public.

Anyway, keep supporting the people that you know and you trust. You do not help Greece, you support people that you are satisfy with and you enjoy their services.

Ciao.

Property market ideal for landlords

2011-02-07T04:21:00.001-08:00

Evidence continues to mount that market conditions will benefit landlords with rented property insurance for some time to come.

The latest verdict comes from independent letting specialist Leaders which says the new year has got off to a strong start for lettings, with demand for quality rental accommodation at an all-time high.

January is traditionally a busy month for lettings, but this January Leaders said it had seen a significant increase in people looking for somewhere to rent.

During the first three weeks of 2011, 15% more prospective tenants registered with the agency to find rented accommodation, compared to the same period last year.

Managing director, Paul Weller said: "We are seeing ideal market conditions for landlords at the moment, with top-end rents being achieved in many areas, relatively cheap lending and strong demand from professional tenants, which shows no signs of abating.

"For those considering letting for the first time, or extending their portfolios, now is the perfect time to enter the market – with some great opportunities for purchasing property and a better choice of buy-to-let mortgage products now available. For homeowners who would like to move but cannot sell, letting could be the ideal solution until the sales market improves."

Leaders reports that demand is high for all types of good quality property – from small studio, city centre apartments to large family homes in village locations. Good quality means well-presented, with modern kitchen, bathrooms, fittings and fixtures.

Looking forward into 2011, Leaders believe that the improvement in buy-to-let lending and favourable market conditions will lead to more landlords entering the market and existing landlords expanding their portfolios this year, with rents likely to remain stable.

Weller said: "There are numerous buying opportunities for the informed investor who is investing for the long-term. The key is to secure a property that gives a positive cash flow in an area with a long-term strong rental demand. That is why investors should seek expert guidance on exactly what and where to buy: to ensure the success of your investment and avoid any unnecessary void periods."

According to Leaders, residential letting remains an excellent investment in the long-term. The proportion of households in the UK in private rental accommodation has been growing steadily, from 10% in 2001 to 14% today.

No matter the strength of the property market, landlords should always make sure they protect their investment against unforeseen circumstances by taking out the right level of landlord house insurance.

Magic ways...

2010-02-16T09:29:00.000-08:00

The Lake Plastiras area is known for its spectacular natural beauty.
It was created by the waters of the Megdova river, tributary of Acheloos, and took its name from Nikolao Plastira. General Nikolaos Plastiras inspired this ambitious project in 1925. Standing at the edge of the river, where lies today the sluice of Megdoba River (Tauropos), he envisioned this area as a huge artificial lake. In 1959, six years after his death, his vision of a beautiful lake came to life, providing with water the thirsty villages of Karditsa and offering electricity of some hundred million kilowatt-hours.

It is an exception to the rule that human intervention in nature, usually pictures traumatic alterations and concrete monsters. The construction not only affects negatively the natural environment, but also helped and enforced its development.
Covering an area of about 24km2, it is surrounded by natural beauty, beaches, restaurants, hotels and many trails within its vast forest.

The region is considered a "paradise" for the nature-worshippers and offers alternative style of vacation. Here you can walk, drive or bike along fir, oak and chestnut trees down shady lanes with openings to views of immense height and the vast plains below. Fishing, sailing, Kayaking, river rafting, hiking, horseback riding, mountain climbing, cross country skiing and jeep tours are only a few of the ways you can enjoy the natural beauty of this area.

Limni (lake) Plastira is the embellishment of the Karditsa prefecture. It is located 340 km far from Athens and 230km from Thessaloniki.

A different story...

2009-12-10T09:06:00.000-08:00

This time we change a subject and we write a interesting story from Argentina.
Leandro Vesco, a very active Argentinian real estate agent and novelistwrote a novel about the water springs of Carhue village in Argentina. The writer wrote only the begining....the end was written by the village residents.

Everything started five years ago, when Leandro Vesco visited the Carhue village for the first time. The village is located 520km away from Buenos Aires and it is familiar for its thermal springs.

Vesco had already written many stories, which he was telling them only in artistic haunts, and none of them had ever been published. At the end of his stay in Carhue, he contrives a myth about a mysterious water spring of Soda. The water causes amnesia to whoever drinks it and starts the wrtiting of a novel. The characters are real residents of that village, but change their name and their job for their protection.

The novel cronicles the history of Carhue springs in our days, in about 500 pages. The story structures around the mysterious Soda's water spring of lake Epecuen, where Juan Calfulcura's army has gone to heal General Levalle. Nevertheless, the writer leaves the story unfinished.

The time that Vesco completes the first part of his book, he uploads some chapters of Facebook, www.facebook.com/novela.carhue. The second part of his book, it will be written by itself.

So, several Carhue residents, who knew them little, brought new ideas for the novel and they bacame more active characters. Wahtever age, the majority of the residents had an active participation in book's writting.

Other residents, used the Facebook page as a notice board, where the posted poems, notes, even researchning points of view about stray animals.

Until today, more than 1.200 people have visited the specific web page. An impressive number considering that only 1.000 residents of the village are connected with Internet.

Let's hope that we will witness something similar regarding Halkidiki and some of its villages!

Elections

2009-09-23T15:50:00.000-07:00

Dear All,

After loooong time we are here again and ready to blog! I hope that you had a nice summer, despite that this summer for many reasons was different and unique. Anyway.

I do not know how many of you aware that Greece is running an election period as many other European countries. I will post for you the main political parties by mentioning further that these parliament elections have an urgent profile. Consider that the last elections were 2 years ago. The prime minister Mr. Karamanlis announced that such elections were needed for the reason of the financial problems that the country faces due to the global financial crisis.

The main political parties are:

* New Democracy: The party in the goverment now and its leader is Costas Karamanlis. Their page is: New Democracy (Nea Dimokratia). New Democracy expresses middle-right ideas and has some past roots with the extreme right.

*PA.SO.K: Pasok is quite well known in Europe due to its founder, Andreas Papandreou and his actions over 70s and 80s. The party's web link is: PASOK and their english version is: PASOK. Fairly suprisingly their english page is quite poor and out dated. At this moment PASOK is leading galops before the elections. Today's leader of PASOK, is the son of Andreas Papanderou: George Papandreou. Apparently, Pasok expresses the socialist middle.

* K.K.E: The communist party in Greece. KKE has a long history and for many years till late 70s was illegal. In the last elections was the third party in the parliament and its votes seems to be quite constant. The website of the party is: KKE and is leadered by Aleka Papariga.

* SYRIZA: a coallition of left parties. The main party in this coallition is the party of SYNASPISMOS that means coallition. A party expressing radical socialist opinions and we could say that is the party that the young people vote. Its leadered by Alexis Tsipras, a young politician.

Other two parties, is LAOS leadered by an ex member of the New Democracy. LAOS recently is very popular among the right wing voters and is very likely to be the fourth party in terms of its power in the new parliament. The last party is the Green Party, belonging to the wider movement of Green around Europe.

I forgot to say that the elections are on 4th of October. I know that many of you are not interested about politics but I thought due to the recent financial crisis to be updated about the politics in Greece. In the meantime if you are looking for a house in Greece, please check this website out: Properties in Greece.

The train is 106 years old and has been implemented by the engineer Evaristo De Kiriko, father of the famous painter Gorgio De Kiriko. The train was constantly operating till 1971. The train was used for transporting products from Volos to Pelion and vice verca. This year the train strats its trips from 11th of April and from 1991 is used only for touristic purposes. The trip is about 40 minutes and passegengers will view one of the most beautifull parts of Pelion.

The local name of the train is: Μουντζούρης meaning roughly in English "grease monkey".

About Halkidiki

Halkidiki is a Greek peninsula, located in the North Greece, near the city of Thessaloniki. It has three peninsulas, Cassandra, Sithonia and Mt. Athos.

Halkidiki is an area that combines everything, sunny, golden sandy beaches, deep and picturesque gulfs, traditional villages and modern tourist resorts, small islands and sheltered bays, pine-clad hills descending to the sea, Mediterranean climate and magnificent natural beauty.

Besides the beautiful beaches there are also a lot of archeological treasures and historical monuments.

Either you prefer to visit or stay in Sithonia, or in Cassandra the result will not fail to please you. Both peninsulas have tourist facilities and properties, built in the traditional Macedonian style, designed to enhanced and rather than detract from the environment. The third peninsula, Mt. Athos, is a monastic state, a shelter of Byzantine monasteries.

Summer in Halkidiki

2008-09-06T14:27:00.000-07:00

The summer is now over, and I really hope that you enjoyed your
vacations. This Summer for Halkidki (Chalkidiki) was a peacefull one. Many Tourists around, nice weather and more or a less, a nice summer.

Regarding me, I made a couple of visits. I went to Olympus, I stayed at Litochoro, where then I could walk up to the mountain. I spent also some days at Oraiocastro in Thessaloniki, and I understood that this area has a long property development. I spent suprisingly enough one week at Athens, where I went to Agioi Apostoloi, a sea area near to Athens.A lovely Greek summer there too. I really enjoyed walking at the street near to the sea of my house.

But later on this month, I will start posting some more particular news about the real estate bussiness in Greece.

Many wishes for a creative winter for now.

More News

2008-06-30T23:27:00.000-07:00

After a long discussion with many local real estate agents and collecting data from different property markets in Greece, we made the following observation considering also the high prices of the oil:

If you want to buy a house in Greece then YOU NEED TO SEARCH! YOU NEED TO SEE THE PLACES!

You need to do that even if you want to work as a real estate agent. Till now looks that the individual constructors or individual sellers mainly of traditional houses, they will be able to keep the house prices around the same levels. But this is not the case for big construction companies that of course need to get the maximum payoff from their investments. But on the other hand, big construction companies offer different property products with different services than the individual sell. At the most of times when you buy a traditional house you will need to re-innovate. Therefore the price that you paid does not match exactly with the work that you will need later for developing your house.

Therefore what sort of house to buy and especially in Greece depends mostly on your needs. And as a final conclusion, fell free to ask and especially your real estate agent. The agent should your guide-your friend that does his best for you. Do not forget that.

We will post late this month too.

Sorry for not posting some time now....But we read with great interest the news about the oil prices and how this affects the house prices in Greece. We have already noted many price changes in the local properties market due to the new prices in the building products. Note that the workers pay rate remains the same, therefore the new prices are mostly because of these new inflated rates in the basic building products. We follow the news and we will update you asap.

An Update

2008-06-10T10:46:00.000-07:00

To be honest I have many things to write about. For instance, I will need to say that Greece, despite the frequent earthquakes that happen there, is a safe country. The civil engineering rules for building a house are very strong and the Greek engineers are very well educated and experienced for constructing safe buildings. An example is the recent earthquake in Greece -Peloponnisos (Peloponnese), where despite its size, the damages where limited to mostly in old agricultural style traditional houses. But I will definitely post soon, about more info about the greek constructions.
