This increase would have been even higher but it was somehow slowed down by an existing offer of 30.000 to 40.000 properties for sale all over the country.  Another element in the study of the appraisers was that apart from the “classical newly built constructions” there is more and more demand for luxury secondary residences of which the prices reach € 23.810 per square meter on Santorini Island and up to € 11.154 per square meter on Paros Island in some specific areas (Naousa, Ambelas)
