Every Greek short-term rental must be registered in the AADE Short-Term-Stay Property Registry (Μητρώο Ακινήτων Βραχυχρόνιας Διαμονής) and show its registration number (ΑΜΑ) on every advert. There is no public lookup, so Brixfox shows a number only where the listing itself discloses one and never presents a listing as registered.
An ΑΜΑ is issued to the person who registers the property under their own Greek tax number (ΑΦΜ) — it does not transfer with the sale. The buyer registers afresh: have a Greek accountant confirm the municipality still accepts new short-term-rental registrations (central Athens has been frozen since January 2025) before underwriting rental income.
Portal coordinates are fuzzed by about 200 m, and a direct-agency listing sits on the agency’s own pin or its village centre, so every position here is approximate. Freehold, priced in EUR.
Matched on the listing's stated area; a home described as two areas can appear under both. Prices in EUR as listed.

Net yield is the median fully-managed after-tax net on all-in cost of the 12 listings scoring 90.8 or more on BrixfoxScore here (the top decile, ties included), the cut every Brixfox market and region card leads with; the median across all 125 listings with a net figure is 3.0%. €/m² over 125 listings with a stated building size; gross yield is projected STR revenue over true all-in acquisition cost, over 125 listings with an estimate. Net yield after management and tax is on each property page.
