Whether you own a villa with a pool in Panorama, a coastal apartment in Kato Voula, or a family home you inherited and visit once a year, you need someone on the ground looking after it. That person is me.
Yanis Zisis spent over a decade as an overseas property owner while living in London. He knows what it feels like to have no reliable person looking after your home in Athens, so he built the service he could never find.
Every property is personally overseen by Yanis. Sole keyholder, single point of contact, and the person who conducts every inspection in Voula.
One person. Direct WhatsApp access. Always the same person who was there last time.
Your keys stay with one trusted person. No subcontractors, no third-party access without your approval.
Timestamped photo reports after every visit. You see exactly what was checked, the same day.

Voula sits at the heart of the Athens Riviera, between Glyfada and Vouliagmeni, with organised beaches, pine slopes, and some of the highest property values in Greece. Villas with pools, gardens, and sea views are the norm rather than the exception.
That coastal setting is exactly what makes Voula properties harder to leave unattended. Salt air, humidity, pine debris, and long summer-only occupancy patterns all degrade a home quickly when no one is checking.
AC units, balcony railings, exterior locks, awning mechanisms, and outdoor furniture all deteriorate faster on the Riviera. Routine cleaning and treatment prevent expensive replacement.
An untreated pool turns in days. A garden left through August is a fire risk and a neighbour complaint waiting to happen. Both need scheduled oversight, not occasional check-ins.
Most Greek insurers void coverage if a property is unoccupied for 30 to 60+ consecutive days without documented visits. On a high-value Voula villa, that exposure can run into hundreds of thousands of euros.
Scheduled inspections, salt-air maintenance flagging, pool and garden contractor oversight, polykatoikia and community representation, timestamped photo reports. One person accountable year-round.
Everything your Voula home needs while you are away. Same comprehensive checklist on every visit, whether you own an apartment or a villa.
Scheduled visits covering plumbing, humidity, electrics, doors, windows, balconies, salt-air wear, and ventilation. Photo reports via WhatsApp after every visit.
Property Check ServicesVetted contractor network for pool service, garden upkeep, exterior treatment, and repairs across Voula and the wider Riviera. On-site supervision and quality verification. Nothing proceeds without your approval.

You own a villa with a pool in Panorama Voula or a coastal apartment near the beachfront. High-value asset, long vacancy periods, salt-air exposure. You need year-round oversight.
You purchased at the €800,000 Attica threshold in one of the most desirable Riviera suburbs. You need documented proof your property is maintained and someone to act on your behalf.
Inherited family villa or apartment in Voula sitting empty for most of the year. Nobody checking the pool, opening shutters, or reading 3V municipality notices.
Renting on Airbnb or long-term to international tenants. The gaps between guests are when the most damage goes unnoticed. We cover those periods and turnover checks.
A WhatsApp call or video chat about your property and what you need. No forms, no sales pitch.
I visit the property, conduct a full baseline inspection, document its current condition with photos, and take a copy of the keys.
Your property goes onto the inspection calendar. After every visit, you get timestamped photos and a clear summary via WhatsApp.
If I find a leak, a broken shutter, a pool issue, or a notice from building management or the 3V municipality, I flag it immediately and coordinate the fix with your approval.

Voula sits on the Athens Riviera between Glyfada and Vouliagmeni, around 18 km south of central Athens. Coastal road and tram access, pine slopes inland, and some of the most sought-after addresses in Greece.
Kato Voula (coastal, beachfront apartments and lifestyle), Ano Voula (residential, family homes, pine slopes), Panorama Voula (elevated villas with sea views), and the Kavouri-adjacent peninsula. Building stock ranges from 1970s villas to new luxury developments.
Voula sits north of Vouliagmeni and south of Glyfada and The Ellinikon, close enough to benefit from the €8 billion regeneration without sitting inside the construction zone. The Riviera Tower, Experience Park, and new mall reshape the entire corridor and push values upward.
Apartments in Voula commonly trade between €5,500 and €8,500/sqm, with new builds and prime addresses reaching €10,000+/sqm. Villas in Panorama and toward Kavouri can exceed €15,000/sqm. Voula sits firmly within the Attica Golden Visa zone (€800,000 minimum).
Voula property is high-value and high-exposure. Salt air, summer-only occupancy, pool and garden upkeep, and 3V municipality matters (Vari-Voula-Vouliagmeni) all need active oversight. We know which streets sit closest to the coast, which villas have shared community management, and what the local notices actually say.
You invested in one of the most desirable addresses on the Athens Riviera. Do not leave it unattended.
