When it comes to choosing property investments in Greece, there is much to consider. After all, there are numerous parts of the Greek mainland and its 1400 islands which would seem to be an excellent place to invest in property. Most people head straight for the coastal area of the Greek peninsula or its famous Mediterranean islands, but investors are starting to look at the property market in Athens, especially subsequent to the significant investment in the city's infrastructure for the 2004 Olympics.

As any coastline is always a big draw for tourists, second homers and investors alike, it is easy to see why Greece's 15,020 Km of coast seems to offer a mind boggling amount of choice. The islands are divided into six groups: the Cyclades, the Dodecanese, the islands of the North-Eastern Aegean, the Sporades, the Ioanian and the Saronic Gulf Islands. The two largest islands, Crete and Evia, do not belong to any group.
