Practically, we can say that the pandemic period is behind us, the market is up, foreign investors have returned with interest in Greek real estate, and the Athens Riviera, as well as the redevelopment of more''wide territories significantly influence all these changes' - said Dimitris Melachroinos, CEO of Spitogatos.

In particular, in the third quarter of 2022, house prices across Greece rose by 6.5% for sales and 6.7% for rentals.

The most affordable areas of the country to buy and''continues to strengthen due to an increase in the average home sale price compared to the previous year. As for 2022, the value of housing in the southern suburbs continues to rise, both compared to last year and to the previous quarters of this year. The development of neighborhoods within the Athens Riviera development projects seems to be stimulating investor interest in the southern suburbs of Attica.

When it comes to the housing market in the rest of Attica, it is worth noting that, as always, the center of Athens attracts attention with all its districts such as Goudi, Metz - Kallimarmaro and Ilissia showing big changes compared to last year (27.6% - 26.4% and 22.1% respectively).

At the same time, we also see a greater increase in the average rental price in the areas of the suburbs as well as in the rest of the region. From all of the above, we can see that buyer interest may be shifting to areas outside of urban centers, which has been noticed since the beginning of the year and seems to be taking hold. In particular, areas of the city suburbs as well as the rest of the region stand out in the rental market,''such as Lagada (18.45%) and Naples (13.5%).
