We started our search for a property on Corfu in the summer of 2016. We rang Andy whilst holidaying, he arranged some viewings the very next day and again for several days and evenings taking us all over north of the island. Listening to our requirements and opinions. We kept in contact, then in the spring of 2017 a property came up that meet all our needs.Andy negotiated the sale, saw it through by liaising with our Greek lawyer and even checking on the property after purchase, until we were able to return to Corfu. His colleague Thanos is also very helpful promptly responding to our e-mails and questions. Together Andy and Thanos make a great team, one we would highly recommend for your property search on Corfu.Best wishesAndrew & Janet Davies

Having set my sights on buying real estate in the lovely island of Corfu some years ago, and after a couple of hit-and-miss opportunities, I got acquainted with Roula Rouva, and was able to close a deal within weeks after our first point of contact.The team has proven to be professional, solution-oriented and courteous throughout, making the purchase process a walk in the park, which was most welcome considering I live and work in a different part of the world.It has been a pleasure working with Roula Rouva and I can warmly recommend the team to any aspiring Greek property investors.Many thanks,Lennart

Taken by Corfu passion we planned to live half of the year in this wonderful place.The purchase of a house that seemed impossible was possible thanks to Roula Rouva Real Estate Agency which without a doubt is the company adapted for foreigners in search of a small corner of happiness.The representative of the North, Mr. Andy Marshall, was for us a guide from the beginning of the procedure to the end, the official contract. His presence at our side was very precious, not only during the visits but also in the administrative procedures, and the search for companies to do the necessary work.His availability allowed us to follow the work at a distance and finally to discover a house in accordance with our wishes. Andy Marshall has become a friend and his presence after the end of his mission is always precious.Congratulations to Roula Rouva Real Estate Agency for everything and to have among its collaborators quality agents like Andy Marshall.René Gimeno

Although we had special requirements with our search for a house for 2 persons with 2 apartments on the right, Andy could present us directly a suitable object. The support throughout the entire purchase process was outstanding.Andy had all the people we needed ready for us. The lawyer also looked after us very well through the purchase process and we felt safe.Even the after-sales service leaves nothing to be desired. The lawyer takes care of all necessary things like electricity, a tax consultant was arranged for us. Andy is always available when we need anything, like a craftsman or a gardener.We would buy a house in Corfu with Roula Rouva and Andy at any time.With regards,Nicolas Schraml

During our second visit to Corfu, we decided to buy a family vacation home in Corfu. Corfu is a rather large island and we had been only two locations at north east, and we desperately needed a good advice from competent real estate agents. It was our luck to come across Roula Tziliou and Vasso Zarra. They knew which properties would suit our wishes and budget better than ourselves. We first did nott even consider their suggestions very seriously, but we felt in love with our vacation home at once. The entire purchase process was very quick (as necessary since we had to go back home the next day) and also water tight with a very reliable jurist, with whom an appointment could be made in the evening at the same day.Roula and Vasso, thank you very much for your help with our second home in Corfu. We are really looking forward to going back this summer and having amazing summer in our home in Corfu!Thank you, Roula ;-)!JooYeon

We contacted Andy in December 2016 advising that we had booked 4 days in February 2017 to fly over to Corfu out of season to look at properties. Andy had already booked his holiday in January 2017, but was able, with just a week back at his desk, to pull together an itinerary of 14 viewings over the Saturday and Monday of our long weekend stay.This gave us a great insight into the types of properties available in North Corfu where we had wanted to concentrate our search, his knowledge of the area was great and he is obviously well known to the local Corfiot and ex pat population as we were continuously ‘beeped’ and waved to by passing cars and people as we travelled around.Andy did all of the driving which was really helpful as once off the main beach road it would be easy to become lost and the local code of driving is a little different to the UK!Our visit was really informative and Andy was able to explain details around expected costs for agents and solicitors fees and local taxes when purchasing a property.Within 3 days of returning we decided that there were two properties that we were very keen on and Andy facilitated the contact and negotiations, 5 weeks later we were the proud owners of a beautiful 3 bedroom house in Agios Martinos.Andy introduced us to a really great and helpful lawyer Georgia Koutsouri who is based in Corfu town and was very professional. We have an advantage over some Brits who are looking to buy a house abroad in that we had lived and worked on mainland Greece for 8 years during the 90’s and so have a reasonable understanding of the language, culture and how ‘things work’ in Greece and I can only say that the support we had through the process was very professional and helpful – not easy buying a property when you are 2,000 miles away in the UK and you need the right people you can trust representing you.Andy has also been very helpful since, in that we wanted to build a pool and he introduced us to Panagitis Bolovinos, a Civil Engineer and Spiros Koursaris a local builder, both of whom have been really helpful in obtaining the correct legal paperwork and permissions and worked started on the pool construction this May and should be completed by July.Tim & Melanie Heath, March 2018

A big thank you to Natalia Tsiro Rouva for helping us make our dream of a small house in Corfu come true.Natalia's great professionalism and commitment made the whole buying process from property selection to signing the notarial deed not an iceberg breaking icebreaker but a great stress free pleasure! Although our budget was difficult and our requirements were specific, thanks to Natalia we managed to find our dream house with a small orchard of olives and lemons and a beautiful view of the Ionian sea.When we chose Roula Rouva Real Estate agency we knew it was a good and reliable agency because it has won many awards for the best real estate agencies and now we are sure it will win many more awards because it has such professional agents like Natalia Tsiro Rouva, special thanks also to our lawyer Georgia Koutsouri and renovation contractor Mr. Spiros Koursaris!Corfu is one of the most beautiful islands in Greece, but it is not the beautiful beaches, the magnificent vegetation, the unforgettable views, the Greek music, the Mediterranean climate or the delicious food that is the greatest treasure of this island, but the people we met like Natalia Tsiro Rouva!With great respect,Anita & RichardBoston,UK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Wielkie podziękowania dla Natalia Tsiro Rouva za pomoc w spełnieniu naszych marzeń o małym domku na Corfu.Wielki profesionalizm i zaangażowanie Natalii sprawiły ze cały proces zakupu od wyboru nieruchomości aż do podpisania aktu notarialnego nie był łamaniem gór lodowych lodołamaczem lecz wielką bezstresową przyjemnoscią!!

We have recently bought a property in Kalami Corfu and I would just like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all at Roula Rouva, especially Anna Moraiti. We couldn’t have asked for a more professional, honest and friendly service. All of our questions were answered quickly, no matter what day or time they were sent. Even though the house has all gone through we know that if we have any questions we can still call on our friend Anna and Roula Rouva to help us. Corfu is a beautiful island, but we have found out that the most beautiful part of it is the people.Thank you for all your helpAndy & Rachel

Over the course of the last fifty-odd years we have had to use many different Real Estate Agentsbut only two have stood out as exceptional – one in Dorchester, U.K. and Roula Rouva as represented by their Paxos Office and the very talented Ioanna Aroni.From the very moment we had taken on Roula Rouva to sell our apartment in Paxos, Ioanna was there for us. Nothing was too much trouble for this exceptionally capable lady.Ioanna effortlessly handled all the requirements of the viewings (sometimes under rather adverse conditions), and when actual buyers appeared,she handled all the complex business of tax requirements, accountants, Notaries, engineers (surveyors), powers of attorney etc. for both us and for the purchasers. Nothing fazed her. The whole operation was really dynamic and painless. With true professionalism, the fact that she was also handling several other sales at the same time did not intrude at all.A more energetic, enthusiastic, discrete and cheerful person would be hard to find. Nothing was too much trouble, nothing was impossible. Communication was excellent at all times. It was a real pleasure to do business with Roula Rouva and Ioanna - and as a bonus, we have gained a real and genuine friend.Jenny and Derek DobbsNovember 2018
