Renovate
an Old Stone House – Property.
We will explain you what can be done to the property starting from legal
aspects and static and going to more detailed aspects. Once you decide on
what you want we come to contract where will be everything in a detailed
description and after 9-12 months you can make your holidays in your house.
The cost of renovation can vary between 500-1500 €/m2. This depends on the
building, on your decision how much money you want to invest and your
taste.
Renovating an old stone house is sometimes more expensive than building a
new one but its value is higher than a new one as well as his local
character is always an added value.
Process Buying a property
After you have searched on our website
www.realestate-thassos.com
or from others and select some properties for sale, you have to arrange your
trip to Greece, dates, hotel tel. numbers etc in contact with us.
If you have your finances ready before you make your viewing trip, the
buying process will be quickly. We can provide you assistance also in the
process with financing (money transfer, loans etc.)
Architectural services
After you have decided for the property of for 2 or 3 of them we can make a
preliminary plan as well as an estimation of building cost and then you can
decide which one you will buy. The service of the plans is free of charge in
case you will decide after the completion of the purchase for the building
permit.
Notary
In the case of properties over 50.000 a Deposit of around 10% is required
usually in order to secure your property on signing a preliminary agreement,
other ways you move direct to the contract. The notary will arrange the
appropriate tax papers and payments.
Lawyer
After you have decided for the property a lawyer, who we cooperate, will
check for clean title, help to fix the “assessed value”, and ensure that the
property is free from outstanding taxes which the new owner would otherwise
inherit. In case you want another lawyer or Notary, we can provide you with
a list of them.
Contract
The Notary will have prepared a contract which will signed at his offices,
in the presence of the lawyers representing both sides. If the customer
decides not to be present, they can agree to a Power of Attorney, for their
lawyer or another person to act on their behalf.
Purchase Costs
The purchase tax, legal and notary fees are paid for by the purchaser in
Greece. These are calculated based on the “officially assessed price” of the
property and not the actual selling price. In order to keep costs down, the
“officially assessed price” can be as much as a third cheaper than the
actual selling price.
Purchase tax 9-13% (of assessed price)
Legal fees 1-2% with minimum 250 € (of assessed price)
Notary fees 1-2% (of assessed price)
Property-real estate agent fees 2% of the actual selling price.
As these percentages are based on the lower “officially assessed price”, you
should allow for these costs to add up to approximately 10% of the sale
price.
Please note that for off-plan house - properties, the purchase costs can be
less than half of those above.
This type of architecture aims when designing obtain conditions of internal comfort, and so substantially increase our standard of living. This can be achieved by making the most of our surroundings, using climate, microclimate, positioning, winds, humidity, underground streams, tellurian currents, electromagnetic fields and of course a good choice of materials to give us a personalised solution for a house integrated into its environment, cheaper, more pleasant and above all ‘healthier'.
Techniques in Bioclimatic Architecture
* Location. Location
determines climatic conditions in which the house will be "connected" to the
environment. We can differentiate between macroclimate and microclimate
conditions.
* Shape and orientation. The shape of the house has to do with: The contact
surface between the house and the outside. Wind exposure. Solar capture.
The orientation of the house has to do with: Solar capture and
Influence of dominant winds
* Passive solar capture. There are several types of systems: Direct systems.
Semi - direct systems. Indirect systems
* Isolation and thermal mass
* Ventilation. In bioclimatic housing, ventilation is important, and has
different uses: Air renovation. Thermal comfort. Conditioning. Air in
movement can remove heat stored in walls, ceilings, floors by forced
convection phenomenon. Infiltration. Natural ventilation.
Convective ventilation. Convective ventilation in attic.
Ventilation heat loss in winter. Ventilated façade.
* Soil climatic advantages
* Stopper rooms. The garage and The attic
* Protection against summer radiation
* Cooling evaporative systems
