How do I find a place to live in Mykonos?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"Finding a place to live in Mykonos, involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from a small apartment to a luxury villa. Next, you should research the different areas of Mykonos to decide where you'd like to live. Some popular areas include Mykonos Town, known for its nightlife, and Ornos, which is more family-friendly. Once you've decided on a location, you can start your search for a property. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for rentals or properties for sale in Mykonos, such as HomeGreekHome, Spitogatos, and Airbnb for short-term rentals. You can also contact real estate agencies based in Mykonos, such as Mykonos Real Estate and Mykonos Properties. They can provide you with listings that match your criteria and arrange viewings. When you find a property you're interested in, make sure to inspect it thoroughly. Check the condition of the property, ask about any additional costs such as utility bills or community fees, and find out about the terms of the lease or sale agreement. If you're planning to move to Mykonos permanently, it might be worth hiring a lawyer to help you with the legal aspects of buying a property in Greece. Finally, once you've found your dream home and everything is in order, you can proceed with the rental or purchase process. This usually involves signing a contract and making a payment. Remember, finding a place to live in Mykonos can take time, so it's important to be patient and not rush the process," remarked one member in Mykonos.
