Interest from American investors in Greece’s Golden Visa programme has risen sharply, with demand increasing by around 49% over the past year, according to analysis from Enness Global.

The programme continues to attract high-net-worth individuals seeking greater global mobility and long-term security, with many viewing residency as a strategic alternative or ‘Plan B’ rather than a permanent relocation. Greece remains one of the few major European markets offering real estate-linked residency and has also introduced a startup investment route designed to attract entrepreneurs.

Growing geopolitical uncertainty and changing attitudes towards global mobility are encouraging affluent buyers to diversify both their lifestyle and investment exposure. Demand is being driven by the flexibility, Schengen access and long-term optionality that alternative residency can provide.

The rise in American interest highlights the increasing importance of second residency and citizenship solutions as part of wider international wealth, lifestyle and mobility planning.
