Client testimonials

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Roula Rouva Real Estate team for their help in purchasing a house on the wonderful island of Corfu.  Finding the right home can be a difficult process and a real estate agent can provide all the resources needed to make the home buying process simpler, from specific neighborhood information to tools to estimate payments that will help through the home buying process.We often ask ourselves the question “How? How did we manage to find such a house so quickly? And exactly where we wanted it to be?''Because we understand that the path to homeownership is typically a multi-year process and a determined search for the perfect home that fits our needs and budget. Only after rounds of negotiations, inspections and paperwork, do you finally get handed the keys to the front door.  But hopefully, we didn't have to go through all this process alone. All we did ourselves was just choosing the location on the map!!! The rest of the work, all the troubles and worries starting from finding the right location, the price negotiations, and paperwork was handled by the ROULA ROUVA Real Estate team.Roula Rouva Real Estate Team showed us endless hospitality, cordiality, and a sincere desire to help us find the right home, to help us turn our dream into reality, and their advice and support through closing were invaluable.Dear Natalia, Anna, Georgia, Angelica, you are a team of professionals who know no barriers, no limits, no fatigue.In your hearts, there is boundless love for the sunny island of Corfu, for people and for your work, and you selflessly shared it with us.It is thanks to you that we are on the threshold of a new page in our life, new discoveries, acquaintances, adventures, and of course - ON THE THRESHOLD OF OUR NEW WONDERFUL HOUSE ON THE ISLAND OF CORFU.Thank you very much!

We are grateful to everyone at Roula Rouva Real Estate Agency for their professionalism and knowledge.We contacted Roula Rouva Real Estate Agency after the decision was made to retire to Corfu in the coming years so after a trawl through of available properties on their website we met up with them for a more in depth discussion and a visit to some of the properties on the market.We found the people and the company to be very knowledgeable and understanding of our requirements and preferred location and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with them. It became obvious that our initial thoughts of purchasing wasn’t matching up with our requirements being the fussy people that we are so Roula Rouva showed us dozens of pieces of building land and helped us fine tune our location to our budget and size of plot needed.We fell in love with one of these plots and are now part way through our build process.We are grateful to everyone at Roula Rouva Real Estate Agecny for their professionalism and knowledge.

From the moment I met Ioanna, I knew in my heart that I was in safe and very capable hands. I had arrived in Paxos alone and on a mission - to find my dream home on Paxos - the heavenly island I had been visiting for many years. Naturally I was anxious about the paperwork involved and not being able to speak Greek !I originally made contact with the Roula Rouva office in Lakka after I had seen some properties on their website. We arranged to meet in lovely Loggos and Ioanna drove me around. She knows the island like the back of her hand and everywhere we went she was greeted by friendly waves and greetings from the locals. We got on extremely well and her warmth and humour, together with her genuine interest were infectious. I could tell she truly cared and would help and guide me through the process.She instinctively knew just what I was looking for and suggested she show me a property she had in mind the next day. The house took my breath away - it was perfect. Ioanna put in my offer and later that very day, she rang me with the great news. From that moment, she and the amazing team at Roula Rouva, carried me through the purchase process. With seemingly effortless efficiency, the legal work was underway and all the while thetransactions were translated into English with an interpreter on hand to reassure me.At the beginning of February, Ioanna and I took the little ferry to Paxos to complete the contract with the vendors at the Notarys office in Gaios.Purchasing a property abroad can be a daunting process, but not when you have Ioanna and Roula Rouva by your side all the way. We have become great friends and as you can imagine we are both longing to meet up again in Paxos. Any concerns I have regarding the property whilst I am here in England and the Corona Virus rages, are swifty dealt with by Ioanna, I know and trust that she will do her very best for me.Thank you so much dear Ioanna and all the team from Roula Rouva

We found Roula Rouva Real Estate on the web by coincidence.When we started to email about some houses we were interested in, we got very fast and precise responses. Later, when we arrived on Paxos, we met Ioanna Aroni, who was always on time, with a smile on her face. We liked her positive state of mind, her responsiveness and her professionalism. As a native she knows every corner on the island, and seems to know everybody. So we were very happy having her as our agent.The process of the negotiations was accompanied by her and the lawyer she recommended to us, in a smooth and a gentle way. So we highly recommend Ioanna Aroni and the Agency Roula Rouva Real Estate.Louisa and Arthur Galett from Switzerland

So, what made us visit the beautiful Island of Paxos, Greece?In July 2017 we got married, went to a small independent Travel Agent who managed to book us the honeymoon of a lifetime! The first time we experienced Paxos, resulted in falling in love with everything it represents…… peace, serenity and making you want to go back for more.After a lot of thinking and deciding, we looked into coming back to the Island with the sole purpose of making a dream come true! We researched the real estate options and booked a week to explore land, properties and projects. The aim was to get to see as much as possible in in a short space of time.We had contacted different Real Estate agents and consultants….. but one stood out from the rest! We both feel Roula Rouva and her team held our hands all the way, they don’t worry about the silly questions you don’t want to ask and always have time to help with the Greek way of doing things. We didn’t know what it would be like to buy in Paxos, but have had a huge amount of support and expertise all the way. Roula Rouva Estates has the right approach to prospective buyers….. no pressure, honesty and the aim to help you understand the daunting villa/ property hunting process.Our Villa Petaloúda (butterfly) represents so much for both of us and we are more than happy to recommend Roula Rouva Real Estate and her team to anyone wanting to take the first steps in making a change, in their life. A special thank you to Ioanna Aroni….. we won’t forget the bumpy car rides around the island to see all the properties…. navigating up the narrow roads/tracks and continuously smiling at the boundless enthusiasm she always has…. her endless genuine kindness, professionalism and determination to make sure you feel ok, she’s made a huge difference to our journey, to be homeowners on Paxos.Pick up the phone or go online…… you won’t be disappointed!

We would like to thank Roula and her associate Barbara for the excellent work they have done to help us to purchase our property in Corfu.Roula was most helpful in securing a solicitor to act for us and to introduce us to him. She then found a reputable builder to carry out the restoration to our property. She kept us aware of progress by sending photos of the property.We would recommend Roula and Barbara to anyone who was contemplating buying a property in Corfu.Sincerely,Marie & Terry Leyland

We are very happy and privileged to give a recommendation for Roula, as follows:"Roula Rouva is much more than just an agent to us, since our first meeting we have found her professional yet friendly attitude an invaluable bonus, we could not ask for more. Her after sales service and advice is second to none and nothing is too much trouble. We especially appreciated her time in advising us on where to buy furniture and white goods for our house. We take pleasure in thoroughly recommending Roula Rouva".

Dear, Roula & JeanWe would like to show our appreciation, for your help in our search to find our long term rental home, here in Corfu.Jean Bell speedily assisted us in our choice of home and area, she has a wealth of knowledge and gave us so many extra tips and advice where would be without her, also the after sales my wife and I received is second to none.We are very lucky to have found Roula's office in Agios Georgios.Sincerely, Tony & Chris Cosgrove

Our experience of buying a house in Corfu through Roula Rouva has been incredible.Roula is extremely professional, has high standards and at the same time is very friendly. No problem has been too difficult for her to solve. Queries were promptly addressed and she kept us up to date with developments, as our house was built, by sending emails and photographs.Once we arrived in Corfu to furnish the property we benefited from Roula’s intimate knowledge of the island and its retailers. She helped us shop and also dealt with the local utility companies, which would have been very difficult for us, as we don’t speak Greek.We call Roula “Mrs Fix-It” because that is exactly what she does.
