Important Notice for Property Owners in Greece (registration extended until 30 June 2012)
The Greek Parliament passed a new law under number 4014/21-09-2011 which gives the opportunity of regularisation of unlawfully erected structures and installations or illegal building conversions, i.e. conversion of a dwelling into a shop.
As of to date the realisation of any legal transaction is not allowed for illegally erected buildings or buildings with illegal uses. Starting of 21-09-2011 every legal transaction should contain a declaration signed by a chartered engineer verifying building legality.

Building Energy Efficiency Certificate
As of January 10 all buildings of minimum plan area of 50 m. sq. (about 500 sq. ft) need to have an Energy Efficiency Certificate in order to be rented or sold.
These certificates rate buildings according to their energy efficiency and are similar to those issued for electrical appliances. An estimate of their energy consumption will be made in order to cover heating, cooling, lighting and aeration needs and a series of works will be suggested in order to reduce them.
Such certificates are issued by Energy Inspectors.
You can contact us for a fee estimate or any further information.
Legalisation of a conversion (registration date expired)
A new law is passed (Nr. 3843/2010) which gives the right to legalise the change of use of domestic areas from auxiliary to main for a length of time of forty (40) years. For example, one could convert a garage into bedroom or a covered veranda into lounge.
The fine to be paid to the state is rated according to the plan area of the structure to be converted as well as its tax value.
This law covers buildings with a planning permit issued before 2-7-2009, no matter wether they are completed or not. Registration date has been expired.
