2 Hellenic Cadastre: So that we know what we own! The Hellenic Cadastre is a unified and constantly updated information system that records legal, technical and other additional information about real estate properties on the State s responsibility and guarantee. Its establishment aims at creating a modern, fully automated record of properties. The record s details are of an evidentiary nature, ensuring the largest possible publicity and security of transactions. The amendment of Law 3481/2006 laid new foundations for the Hellenic Cadastre by securing its funding parallel to simplifying and accelerating the cadastral survey procedures. The first generation of cadastral surveys is being currently completed and the Hellenic Cadastre now covers 322 regions and 7,7 million stremmas, has 6,2 million registered property rights and 94 operational Cadastral Offices. At the same time, the Hellenic Cadastre is expanding to 107 new regions of Attica and Thessaloniki prefectures and the capitals of prefectures that have not been surveyed during previous programmes. It is the most important cadastral programme carried out to date, with which 3,1 million stremmas will be surveyed and 6,7 million property rights registered. Upon completion of this cadastral programme, the Hellenic Cadastre will have covered 2/3 of the country s population. Thus, together we are taking a big step closer to the materialisation of a major national project which sets things right and facilitates our lives, since: Its records are based on the property s information and not the proprietor s. So, everything becomes simpler and clearer. The property of citizens is not simply recorded but consolidated For the first time, state and municipal property is demarcated irrevocably. Forests and coastal zones are protected for good, so that they cannot be trespassed, squatted or encroached.. The registered information is guaranteed. Property transactions are simplified and bureaucracy is limited. A secure environment for investing in the real estate market is established. on crystal clear grounds.
