What to do, before I buy a property in Kefalonia

Before you buy a house or a plot in Kefalonia, it would be wise to stay on the island for a few months, especially during the winter months. That way, you will be able to see whether the island is suitable for you.

Here are a few things to consider:

Familiarity with the area: Renting a house in Kefalonia can give you a better idea of the area, including the different neighborhoods, the local amenities and infrastructure, and the general atmosphere of the island’s daily life. This can help you make a more informed decision when it comes to buying a house on the island.

Time to find the right property: Renting first, can give you more time to find the right property to buy. You can take your time to look around, visit available for sale houses, and consider different options before making a decision.

Cost: Renting a house in Kefalonia can be more cost-effective in the short term, especially if you’re not sure how long you want to stay on the island. This can also give you time to save up for a down payment or to get your finances in order before buying a house.

Flexibility: Renting a house in Kefalonia allows you to be more flexible in your decision-making. If you decide that a certain area isn’t right for you, you can simply move out and find another area or neighbourhood to rent. You may even realize that Kefalonia is not the place for you!

Ultimately, the decision of whether to rent or buy a house in Kefalonia depends on your individual circumstances and priorities. Consider your budget, your long-term plans, and your comfort level with commitment before making a decision.
