Eight in 10 Greeks likely to buy, sell or rent a property in the next years

Almost eight in 10 participants in a survey conducted by the Athens Chamber of Tradesmen on behalf of real estate agencies said that they are likely to buy, sell or rent a property in the next five years.

The president of the Athens Chamber of Tradesmen, Yiannis Chatzitheodosiou, stated: "Despite the challenges, demand for the services provided by real estate agencies remains high. There are therefore significant opportunities for further development of the sector, which will significantly affect the entire Greek economy. After all, we are talking about a sector with strong potential, in which 2019 was considered a milestone year in terms of declared incomes and number of professionals."

More specifically, 76% of participants stated that they are likely to buy, sell or rent a property within the next five years, demonstrating the crucial role of real estate agencies.

The data also showed strong interest in the market in the search for housing, which is already a problem for a large part of society.
