You have to find a trustworthy Real Estate Agency - and an Agency someone have used them selves.
P.S. We meet George Maragos in 2000, and would not hesitate to use him our self.
George Maragos now have license to: Athens, Piraeus, Corinthos, Patras, to whole Peloponnese, Corfu Island, Lefkada Island, to whole Crete Island, Thesaloniki, Larisa, Lamia, Xios Island, Mitilini Island, Limnos Island, Rhodos Island, Kos Island, Simi Island, Leros Island, Tinos Island, Andros Island.

Then You have to find out, where You want to buy a house.
If You go to Greece by aero plane, it's good to find out if there are train or busses You can use in the future or connection with ferries if You want to stay on an Island.
The prices for the houses depend on where You want to live, some places are very expensive.
When You know all that, You can contact the Real Estate Agency, to know if there are houses for sale in the area You want.
If Yes, You make en appointment, book Your ticket, hotel, and car and go !

You find Your house - and You also must have a lawyer. The price for the fee is a regular salary.
A lawyer in Greece can not work in all the country, so it can happen that You must pay some extra for a middleman.
