If you want to live somewhere with good weather, great food and plenty of history and culture, then Greece is a perfect location for you. Another reason why many Brits are packing up and moving to Greece is the fact that both property prices and the cost of living in Greece are lower than they are in the UK.
If you are after a lifestyle which has a better work life balance, with a healthier approach to life and plenty of opportunities to spend time in beautiful locations outdoors, then Greece is exactly the place you could be looking for!
Unless you are the child of a Greek citizen or have married a Greek citizen, you are not going to be able to have Greek citizenship automatically. However, Greek citizenship by investment, known as the golden visa Greece programme is the best way to gain Greek citizenship.
Buying a property in Greece that costs over a certain amount of money will therefore gain you Greek citizenship.
As well as the property itself, you also need to consider the other costs of moving to Greece. You may want to move items of furniture and other belongings over from the UK so you will need to find a company that can do this for you.
You should also consider what your lifestyle will be like when you are there – will you need to work? Do you have children and if you do what school will they attend? Make a list of all these things to sort out before you move.
