Porto Heli has emerged as a strong investment “hot spot” in recent years, with foreign investors targeting every available plot of land.
Porto Heli is already one of the most expensive areas of Greece as many well-known business names have acquired holiday homes there and not only that.
TAIPED proceeded with the re-announcement of an international tender for the exploitation of the property in the Ververonda area in Porto Heli, after the decision to declare the previous tender barren at the end of February.
Thus, TAIPED has set a date for the submission of binding documents offers from the prospective investors on July 18, 2024. It is recalled that this is a one-act procedure, usually the investor with the highest offer is preferred.
The property is a non-coastal parcel with a panoramic view of the Argolic Gulf and has an area of 627,417.92 square meters. It is located at a distance of approximately 500 meters from the center of the Porto Heli settlement and 300 meters from the Ververondas lagoon and the coast of Portoheli Bay.
The main stages of the Competition

It is recalled how in the previous tender a unique binding financial offer was submitted by Goutos Oikodomi E.E.
TAIPED was not satisfied with the offer submitted by Goutos Oikodomiki E.E., the only company that was interested and participated in the tender for the area in question.
The initial offer submitted by the company of interests of the real estate family of Goutou, which has been active in the area for decades, moved to the level of 5,000,000 euros. An amount, however, that was considered extremely low for TAIPED, as the independent appraiser determined the value of the property in Porto Heli at four times that, i.e. at 20,000,000 euros.
