Yields from properties in Athens range from 5.5% - 7%, while similar properties in the suburbs have relatively higher yields, ranging from 6% - 7%.

Yields on seaside properties on the main islands range from 5% - 6%. The rental most of these properties is seasonal, reaching its peak between June-September. During these months, yields can go as high as 30%.

The costs of apartments in Athens can range from €80,000 to €280,000 on apartments of between 50 sq. m. and 200 sq. m. Seaside properties on the main islands are more expensive, with prices ranging from €80,000 to €350,000, for similar sized apartments.

There are many off-plan properties, as well as very old stone houses in Crete. Villas and houses that were recently renovated cost from around €100,000 to more than €600,000. The average price is at €2,225 per sq. m.

Global Property Guide does not cite rental yields figures in Crete because rents here are seasonal.
