According to reports, prices of luxury properties on the Greek islands are being slashed by up to 45%, as owners look for quick sales to avoid paying the higher taxes of the government’s new austerity measures.
Property publication Property Wire brought to light a half built villa on Mykonos being offered by Athens broker Ploumis Sotiropoulos at the €500,000 reduced price of €2 million, a reduction, and a three bedroom property on Corfu down from €1.4 million to €750,000.
‘It’s a scary place to invest right now. Things aren’t going to improve until the economic picture becomes clearer,’ said Mike Braunholtz, a broker at Prestige Property Group which markets properties on the Greek islands.
