Different points
▶ Eu countries
Greece is an EU country as well as a Schengen country. Once you have permanent greek residency status, you can freely enter and leave the 26 Schengen member states in Europe.
Turkey is not an EU country, but its passport can be visa-free for more than 110 countries, as well as applying for a US E2 visa to land in the United States quickly, and it is easier to apply for a British visa, these are its unique advantages.
▶ The amount invested
Although both Greece and Turkey invest 250,000 euros in real estate, Greece invests more than 250,000 euros in real estate and Turkey invests more than $250,000 in property.
According to recent foreign exchange rates, Greek real estate investment is about 200,000 yuan higher than Turkish real estate investment.
But relatively speaking, both are relatively low-cost immigration programs in immigrant countries.
▶ Getting identity is different
The permanent residency status obtained by Greek immigrants through home purchase immigration is also known as the "Golden Permit Visa".
That is, the applicant is still a Chinese national. In the Greek context, settled status means that, apart from political rights, all other rights are no different from those of the natives, and the residency requirements are very relaxed.
It should be noted that in the "Golden Visa" programs such as Spain and Portugal, only Greece directly takes permanent residence status.
Turkey is one step in the process of obtaining a passport, which means acquiring nationality, becoming a citizen of this country, enjoying and being a citizen of all the rights and obligations of this citizen. In addition, Turkey has no requirements for residence.
▶ Property holding time
Greek immigration policy is that property is linked to identity, and immigrants cannot sell their property before naturalization, otherwise they will lose their immigration status, but they can rent and live by themselves.
If you apply for naturalization after 7 consecutive years of residence, you can sell the property after naturalization.
In Turkey's Citizenship by Investment Act, the property purchased only needs to be held for 3 years, and the sale after 3 years does not affect the status.
That is, the property is not tied to the identity. At the same time, properties in Turkey can be rented out and can receive a certain amount of appreciation income every year.
▶ Economic aspects
The Greek economy has picked up, the real estate market has bottomed out, and the value-added potential of house prices is large and the room for recovery is large.
The Turkish passport can be used as a second identity asset protection, helping to open overseas accounts and securely allocate assets. It is also an excellent springboard into the United States and the United Kingdom.
Greece and Turkey are both countries that invest in real estate and finally achieve immigration.
Although the advantages of the two countries are different, they can plan taxes reasonably, reduce asset transparency, and settle in Europe to make it easier for children to educate.
