CS Group Realty · Buyer's agency · Thessaloniki and all of Greece
Buying, renting, or investing in Greece, with someone on your side
CS Group Realty is an independent buyer's agency based in Thessaloniki and working across all of Greece. We act exclusively for foreign buyers, renters, and investors - sourcing, vetting, and negotiating on your behalf, with no seller-side conflict.
What we do
One job: the right property, on the right terms
We represent the buyer or the renter, never the seller. Whether you are purchasing a home, renting long-term, or building an investment position, the work is the same: find the right options, check them properly, and negotiate hard on your behalf.
Sourcing and vetting
For buyers, renters, and investors alike, we find and vet options that fit your budget and goals. Many of the best properties in Greece never reach the public listing sites, so we work the off-market channels too.
Negotiation on your side
We negotiate price and terms for buyers and renters only, with no conflict of interest. We tell you when a deal is good, when to push, and when to walk away. On rentals, we insist on a registered lease so it counts for everything official.
Investment and Golden Visa
For investors, we identify qualifying properties and explain how the thresholds work. Short-term rental yields in Thessaloniki and select island markets run 5-9% gross. The visa application itself is legal work, handled by the immigration lawyers we connect you with.
Who we are
On the ground in Greece, not a directory of listings
CS Group Realty is a buyer's agency based in Thessaloniki and working across all of Greece. We work exclusively with foreign buyers, renters, and investors making Greece their long-term base. We help them navigate the process, find the right property, and avoid the mistakes that cost real money.
Our work is sourcing, vetting, and negotiation. The legal side - contracts, notary, title checks - and the tax side sit with the Greek lawyers and accountants we point you to. We stay in our lane so the people handling your money and your paperwork are the right specialists for the job.
Why Greece
One of Europe's most compelling property markets right now
Low entry prices relative to Western Europe, strong rental yields in prime locations, and a Golden Visa programme that delivers EU residency for qualifying investments. Whether you are settling in or putting capital to work, this is the market we cover every day.
