If you are a U.S. citizen of Greek descent and own real estate in Greece, registering your property with the Greek Land Registry (Ktimatologio) is essential to legally secure your ownership rights. Whether your property was acquired through inheritance, purchase, or donation, failure to register it may result in loss of ownership rights or legal complications in the future.
Our law firm specializes in property management for Greek-Americans, handling the entire process—from document collection and property declaration submission to final registration in the Land Registry, ensuring that your rights are fully protected.
Step-by-Step Guide to Registering Property in the Greek Land Registry
1. Verification and Collection of Required Documents
The process begins with gathering all necessary documents to prove your ownership. We handle the following:
✔ Ownership Titles:

•Deeds of acceptance of inheritance or donation
•Court decisions regarding inheritance disputes
✔ Tax Compliance Certificates:
•Official confirmation from the Greek Tax Authority that all property taxes are paid
✔ Topographic Plans (if required):
•We arrange for the issuance and certification of topographic surveys by licensed engineers
For clients residing in the U.S., we provide full guidance on obtaining and legalizing documents through the Apostille process or the Greek Consulate.
2. Submission of the Property Declaration
Once the necessary documents are collected, we proceed with submitting the property declaration to the competent Land Registry or Mortgage Office.
✔ We ensure the declaration is filled out accurately to avoid errors that may cause delays.
✔ All supporting documents (titles, topographic surveys, tax certificates) are submitted properly.
✔ We verify compliance with Greek legal requirements to ensure your ownership rights are fully protected.
3. Correction of Errors or Omissions
If errors or missing information are detected during the submission process, we take immediate action to correct them. Our firm liaises with the Land Registry Office to:
✔ Complete missing information in the documentation
✔ Rectify errors in previous registrations to ensure a smooth process
4. Final Registration and Issuance of Titles
Once the process is completed, we provide you with officially registered ownership titles from the Greek Land Registry. This ensures that your property is fully secured, allowing you to manage it without legal obstacles in the future.
