Housing Crisis Is Worsening In Athens
Residential apartment buildings with the Acropolis in the background in Athens, Greece, on September 1, 2024. Greece faces a worsening housing crisis. Soaring construction costs and the Golden Visa Scheme skyrocket house prices, while short-term leasing reduces the number of houses available for long-term rental and increases rents. The Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is expected to announce measures to ease the crisis. (Photo by Nicolas Koutsokostas/NurPhoto)
