@rogergarinmichaud I am in the process of buying, so wanted to be 100%. Advantage is they deal with all the Greek paperwork and bureaucracy. If you were taking on a long term rental, might not be a bad idea, but closer to the time. New rules, especially around short term rentals, are being discussed currently.

Thanks for your kind reply... hopefully the new laws being discussed will be favorable to renters, as they have recently in Victoria (Australia)

Why not "equitable for both parties"?聽 There are certainly some pretty shocking landlords in every country, but the behaviour of some tenants is equally appalling!

Agreed there is a tiny minority of renters and squatters that behave like savages but on the other hand you can see landlords in Australia charging 500 dollars a week for dumps not fit for dogs !!!

It's a question of supply and demand, isn't it? If someone needs somewhere to live, they have a choice of renting or not renting any given property.聽 If the rent's too high then only the most desperate will take it, of course - but what's the solution to that?聽 Governments have given up on even pretending to have control of speculators and money markets, and they're happy to take tax off companies mass-producing "killer products" like booze and tobacco (and the victims).聽 Is a landlord some sort of villain if they try to maximise the profit on their investment?

We can blame Capitalism but is there any realistic alternative? As soon as we try to really clamp down and make people "pay their fair share of tax", even assuming that we could all agree on what that means, they'll just move their investment to another more profitable sector - or to another country entirely, and then bang goes all the tax revenue...
