Athens · Leonidio

The deed and the cadastre often disagree.

Before a deposit, we read the sheet against the deed and write down what can go wrong.

Athens seat. Presence in South Kynouria.

Or read what we take on first. Nothing on this site asks you to commit before you understand the position.

Three ways in

Pick the one that describes your position, not your legal question.


01 · You are buying

A title check before you pay a deposit

The papers are clean, the notary will handle it.

We read the cadastre sheet against the deed, then write down what can go wrong and what it would cost to fix. Before your money moves.

Read what that involves →

02 · You inherited

A house in Kynouria you cannot travel to

Κληρονομήσατε πατρικό; Μην κατεβαίνετε.

Acceptance, inheritance tax, the cadastre entry and the transfer, run from here under a power of attorney we prepare and send you.

03 · You are already in a dispute

The builder stopped mid-works

The polite phase is over.

A cold written assessment of the claim and the evidence first, then the formal notice, then the filing. Escalation, not explanation.

How escalation runs →

Two levels, one file


The first level

Complex commercial, construction and administrative litigation, framed by European law.

The second level

The daily practice of the Arcadian countryside — cadastral offices, planning departments, municipalities, surveying engineers, site inspections.

In practice, the second decides the first.

A legally sound position filed at the wrong office, or unsupported by the right survey, is not a position.

Κοκκινόβραχος, Leonidio
Κοκκινόβραχος — the iron-oxide rock above the town. The single accent colour on this site is taken from it.

19 August 2026 · In Greek

Κληρονόμησα σπίτι στην Κυνουρία — από πού αρχίζω (χωρίς να κατέβω)

Το τηλέφωνο ήρθε από τον αδελφό, ή από τον δήμο, ή από έναν γείτονα στο Λεωνίδιο: έφυγε η μητέρα, ή μπήκε το χωριό στο Κτηματολόγιο…

Why the square metres on a Leonidio deed are not the square metres on the cadastre

You asked for the papers. The broker sent a scan of a notarial contract from 1974, or 1989, or 2003.

What “Unknown Owner” means on a Leonidio cadastre extract (and why you should not put a deposit)

You searched it this morning. A stone house above Leonidio, or a little further into South Kynouria.
