Why this matters

In Greece, the permitting and compliance history of a property directly affects its market value, insurability, refinance-ability and ability to be renovated or repurposed. Resolving these issues proactively—before a transaction, dispute or regulatory problem arises—is far less costly and stressful than dealing with them under pressure. Clean technical files are essential documentation for any property stakeholder.
