One city. Two property markets. And most people in central Athens are pricing the wrong one.
For a decade, one buyer set prices across the centre: the investor buying a single flat to let short-term. Since 1 January 2025 that buyer has been shut out of the three central districts — and the freeze runs to 31 December 2026.
What’s left is not one market but several:
◆ Kolonaki €6,100 per sq m. Gyzi €2,600. A 2.3× gap inside one municipality.
◆ Pangrati and Mets hold on Greek families, not tourists — around 60% of buyers.
◆ Plaka, Monastiraki, Koukaki need a new buyer.
◆ Yield has moved outwards: 2.8% in Kolonaki, 4.5% in Petralona.
Our new report answers the three questions we hear most:
→ Investors: where does yield still exist?
→ Buyers: where is value actually holding?
→ Sellers: who is my buyer now?
Plus the four dates and numbers that will move prices next.
