Peace-of-Mind Services: Your One Stop – 360º Solution Facilitator for Legal, Property and Tax Compliance Matters in Greece

Although a natural born US citizen with a longstanding academic career, somehow, I was always “connected” to my family roots and grandparents who immigrated from Greece many decades ago. At some point, my wife and I decided to buy a small place to stay during our summer visits and ideally when we retire. In recent years, our stay periods have been reduced to under 2 months, so we wanted to consider other options with the property since it was vacant for most of the time. Along came Peace-of-Mind Services with whom we had a detailed conversation on various ideas. To make a long story short, POMS undertook to market our property for short term rental periods, while managing the place. To our pleasure, now we enjoy the best of both worlds, as within a month of assignment, we started to receive rental income while all other issues related to the property are dealt by POMS. We truly got peace of mind and definitely recommend them for any matter in Greece. Much appreciated!

My practice is abroad over the past 30 years however, I have family assets in Greece including property which in the past were remotely managed by me. At some point, I needed extended renovation to be done for my apartment in Athens where we stay every time we visit the country – usually once a year. My challenge was to source the right professionals (interior designer, contractor, crews etc.) who could undertake-supervise & deliver results, on time and reliably. Being quite far away, deprived me from closely monitoring the project, so I was quite hesitant whom to trust, considering the size of budget involved. A friend referred me to POMS who had just completed her apartment. These people truly care. Aside from providing all core services, they worked very closely with me to select finishing materials (tiles, colors…) and delivered ahead of schedule. Upon arrival at my apartment, I was amazed at both quality and cleanliness. Worth every penny spent, I definitely recommend POMS for any construction type work. Thank you very much!

We first visited Greece back in 2016 and fell in love with the place, so we decided to invest there for our future residence. We purchased a lovely piece of land by the beach on the island of Evia and set out to build our dream home. Little did we know of the troubles we were to encounter. Despite hiring various lawyers, accountants and construction crews, 6 years went by and we still did not have a house… An incredible mess: language barriers, bureaucracy, unreliability and just too many chiefs – no Indians. We were at the brink of selling the property until a friend referred us to POMS in the summer of 2022. What a team! Their construction people worked diligently with us, and in just 2 months we moved into our house. But that’s not all; they took care of our tax issues, secured interim residency, completed our Golden Visa application for permanent citizenship status, managed banking issues, provided business strategies and much more. Now, POMS is our go-to facilitator knowing we can expect reliable solutions. After years of doubt, we got Peace of Mind and highly recommend POMS. Thank you & Cheers!

After my father passed away in the US, a number of legal matters related to estate and survivor pension in Greece, had to be resolved. Although I am quite experienced with digital services, there were particular complexities involved with my stepmother’s pension and so, we hired Peace of Mind Services to manage our entire portfolio. Their thorough & diligent work led to successfully resolving all our affairs. For those of you with an open matter in Greece seeking hassle-free solutions, I truly recommend POMS!

My father who passed away in Canada over 35 years ago, owned property on an island that my brother and I wanted to legally divide, register & transfer to our children. I haven’t visited Greece for decades, so we tried contacting relatives to look into this matter. It was so messy and required so many parties to be involved, leading us to just let it go and lose the property. Then, we discovered POMS! They worked diligently for months to resolve our complex matter, were very discreet, courteous and most important… we got a solution at a fraction of the cost we would have spent otherwise in terms of personal travel and stay time in Greece. Truly, after years of doubt, we got Peace of Mind and highly recommend POMS for such matters. Thank you!

Part of the “brain drain” due to the recession, I had to leave Greece 5 years ago, leaving behind some outstanding matters related to property inheritance. Although more than capable to personally carry out what was needed, I faced some obstacles: 10-hour difference in dealing with public services remotely, high cost to fly over and limited free time available due to work. All these factors led me to POMS, who thankfully completely managed our case professionally and cost effectively

We are 3rd generation Greeks and try to visit our roots every 2-3 years, go to the islands and relax. Our last trip though was very stressful. My grandparents had an apartment in Athens, which they wanted me to inherit… The place was vacant for years, so we were interested to upgrade and rent it out, thinking wow… this will pay our trips for years to come. Starting with a local firm, we encountered so much bureaucracy and were so frustrated while our limited vacation days turned into nightmares. A friend referred us to POMS, and with nothing to lose we decided to meet. Best decision of my life! These guys not only finalized the legalities, inheritance and property transfer to my name, they also undertook renovation and renting of the place which they fully manage on our behalf. Now, we receive our monthly rental and look forward travelling next summer, this time with complete piece of mind to enjoy our holidays!

Many times, we don’t give enough credit to small things until we deal with them personally. My experience with POMS is short but sweet. Planning to remarry, I wanted to have my wedding in Greece during the summer. However, this was impossible because while the initial marriage had been registered in Greece, my divorce issued in the country of my residence was not officially declared at local authorities. A visit to the consulate panicked me even more because answers were vague in terms of how long it would take for something I considered quite straight forward. Not knowing what else to do other than hop on a plane and deal personally with this matter, I reached out to POMS online. Within a month, it was all taken care of, sparing me from all the hassles and high expenses to travel & stay for a couple of weeks in Greece, with no pay from my work…Thank you POMS!
