Relocating a US executive to Athens: A recent case we handled

A senior executive relocating to Athens from the US approached us shortly before his move, with limited knowledge of the local market and no clear view of which areas would best support his lifestyle and daily routine.
The initial assumption was that the process would be straightforward, reviewing listings, speaking with a few agents, and identifying a suitable property remotely.
In practice, this quickly proved inefficient.
Without local insight, the options available were fragmented, often misaligned with his actual needs, and required constant coordination with multiple stakeholders.
We stepped in and designed a personalised relocation plan.
The focus was not simply on sourcing properties, but on defining what “the right home” actually meant for him, in terms of location, commute, lifestyle and needs.
Based on this, we:
– Provided clear guidance on areas that aligned with his requirements
– Worked in parallel with our network to identify and filter both on and off market options
– Coordinated directly with agents and previewed properties on his behalf
– Prepared a shortlist of properties and a personalised viewing itinerary ahead of his arrival
By the time he arrived in Athens, everything was planned ahead and within one day, he was able to visit a carefully selection of shortlisted properties and secure the most suitable home for his new chapter in Greece.
The result was a seamless transition and the ability to focus on his new role from day one.

If your organisation is relocating talent to Greece, we would be very happy to support!
