V² Development · Since 1962

Greece's most institutional developer.

V² Development is the largest real estate developer in Greece. Established in 1962 and headquartered in Athens, the firm has delivered over 7,000 properties across 4.5 million square meters — a track record that places it well beyond boutique competition.

V² is also the single largest contributor to the Greek Golden Visa program by foreign direct investment volume. International offices in Beijing, Shanghai and Ho Chi Minh ensure Plaza Residences operates with global capital fluency that few European developers can match.

This is the company you partner with when capital permanence and process certainty are non-negotiable.

The Project

The most ambitious Athens project after Elliniko.

Plaza Residences sits at the geographic and cultural heart of Athens. After the €8 billion Elliniko mega-development reset Greece's investment narrative, Plaza Residences is the next iconic residential statement — vertically denser, more architecturally controlled, operated as a luxury hotel by V² itself.

Ground-floor amenities are not the standard "gym + lounge" formula. Plaza integrates a fine-dining restaurant, premium bakery, supermarket, gym, pharmacy, laundry, parking, concierge and a private Sky Bar — every facility curated and operated by V² Development directly.

Owners receive a permanent 25% discount across all on-site commercial venues. The project's 24% VAT exemption has been formally approved by Greek tax authorities.

Common Ownership is engineered for the investor who wants the passport, not the property management overhead. Over the 30-year guarantee, ~96% of your capital effectively returns via guaranteed rental income — while permanent residency stays with you and your family.

Application Roadmap

From contract signature to permanent residency.

A five-step process. Single mandatory visit to Greece. Premiere Investr's Visa & Citizenship Desk handles every filing.

Step-by-step process

01
Purchase & Notary Certification
Following property settlement, the notary issues a formal certificate confirming payment and that the property has not previously been used in another Golden Visa application.
~2 Weeks
02
Land Registry Title Transfer
The competent Land Registry office issues the title transfer certificate confirming legal ownership.
~3 Weeks
03
Online Application Submission
Valid passport, entry visa, notarial certificate and title deed are uploaded to the Greek Ministry of Migration's electronic platform.
~1 Week
04
Fee & Blue Paper Issuance
A €16 fee is paid for the electronic residence-permit card. Upon submission, the applicant receives the "Blue Paper" — interim proof of pending Golden Visa status, valid for travel and banking.
~1 Week
05
Biometrics & Permit Issuance
A single mandatory visit to Greece for biometric capture (fingerprints). No residency requirement — you are not required to live in Greece. The five-year permanent residency card is issued, granting freedom of movement across all 29 Schengen countries.
Single Visit

Airbnb is now banned for Golden Visa properties.

Greek law has explicitly prohibited short-term rentals (Airbnb, Booking, etc.) for properties acquired through the Golden Visa program. Plaza Residences sidesteps this restriction entirely: V² operates a long-term institutional rental program — fully legal, professionally managed, and the basis for your guaranteed 3% yield.

Tax Position

Greek residency does not automatically mean Greek tax residency.

A Golden Visa grants you the right to live and travel in Schengen — it does not, by itself, make you a Greek tax resident. Your tax position is determined by physical days, not by your permit.

Scenario A

Less than 183 days per year in Greece

You remain a tax resident in your home country. Greek tax authorities only assess income that is Greek-sourced — your Plaza rental income, for example. Your global income, business operations and investments outside Greece are not taxed in Greece.

Scenario B

More than 183 days per year in Greece

You become a Greek tax resident, and Greece taxes your worldwide income on standard EU resident principles. Most international Plaza investors structure their stay to remain under 183 days, preserving their existing tax residency. Premiere Investr's tax desk advises on optimal structuring.

Investor Intelligence

Frequently asked questions

The structural answers serious applicants ask before signing.

Does the Golden Visa cover my family?

Yes. A single €250,000 investment grants permanent residency to the principal investor, their spouse, unmarried children under 21, and both sets of parents (investor's and spouse's). One of the most family-inclusive programs in Europe.

Am I required to live in Greece?

No. There is no minimum stay requirement to maintain Golden Visa status. You only need to visit Greece once for biometrics, then renew the card every five years — no residency tracking required.

How is the 3% yield paid given the Airbnb ban?

V² operates a fully licensed institutional long-term rental program — lease terms of 12+ months, professionally managed. The 3% net guarantee is paid quarterly directly to your account. Fully compliant with Greek law.

Can I sell the property later?

Yes. After the 5-year initial Golden Visa cycle, the property can be sold. If sold to another non-EU investor, the buyer can use it for their own Golden Visa application — preserving liquidity at exit.

How long does the full process take?

Realistic timeline from contract signature to Blue Paper (interim proof) is typically 4–8 weeks. Final 5-year permit cards are issued within 6 months. The Blue Paper alone is sufficient for most banking and travel needs.

Does this lead to EU citizenship?

The Golden Visa itself is permanent residency, not citizenship. After 7 years of residency status, holders may apply for Greek (and therefore EU) citizenship subject to language testing and integration requirements. Many investors hold residency without seeking citizenship.
