Investment Overview
Greece and its capital city are gearing up to a slow recovery and investors are more upbeat about the city’s prospects. In Greece there is equity interested in prime, core investing in Athens, and there is opportunistic international capital which is mainly available for office, retail and hotels/tourism and for buying distressed debt and NPL portfolios.
The government has also vowed to push on at once with the redevelopment of Hellinikon, the vast former airport site south of central Athens, introduced for 10 years. Unlocking this site is going to be a watershed moment and will spark interest from other investors. Investors see offices as offering good prospects due to the limited availability of grade A space and the deterioration in quality of existing stock over previous years.
Views on tourism are more mixed. Conversions to hotels or to flats for holiday rentals are popular in the earliest stages of recovery.
International banks are not yet lending, and debt is more expensive than in other European cities. But availability of debt is expected to improve next year because after years of moving at a glacial pace, Greece’s four systemic banks are in a frenzy to sell off their NPLs by an end of 2020 deadline
