Corfu property prices.
What the numbers actually tell you.
Corfu’s historic town, northern coastal villages and southern inland districts should not be treated as one housing market. Heritage status and services also differ by exact address.

Geographic boundary: Corfu island; exclude Paxos and smaller offshore islets from an island-only headline. No unqualified island-wide asking average is presented.
THE BUYER'S QUESTION
Is the property in the heritage-controlled Old Town, an ordinary urban neighbourhood or a rural/coastal settlement?
The widely published ‘Corfu’ asking aggregate uses an older coverage definition that can include offshore islets. We therefore do not publish it as a clean Corfu-island price. Individual zone snapshots are shown with explicit limits.
The historic Old Town is UNESCO-listed, but heritage status does not automatically apply to every property on the island.
A market portal’s older ‘Corfu’ aggregate automatically describes Corfu island alone.
MICRO-AREA COMPARISON
Corfu is not one market.
Neighbourhood figures below are advertised asking indicators only, not completed sales. Each location may contain a different mix of property types and conditions.
Kassiopi
€4,714/m²
Asking · August 2026A higher asking-price coastal zone; avoid treating its villas as equivalent to town apartments.
Korissioi
€1,692/m²
Asking · August 2026A different rural/southern listing mix; the difference is not a measure of relative value without matching property types.
Different local series must not be averaged together into a market-wide figure. Figures are unadjusted for property type, condition, size and legal status.
LOCAL PURCHASE CONTEXT
What changes depending on where you buy.
Old Town
Protected urban fabric can affect alterations, façade work and approvals. Check whether a specific asset lies in a protected zone.
North and eastern coast
Evaluate access, practical year-round services and actual ownership of outdoor/ancillary spaces.
South and rural settings
Verify utilities, wastewater arrangements, road status and any protected landscapes before relying on seasonal use assumptions.
SCREENED TRANSFER RIGHTS
What does the historic transfer register show?
January 2024–July 2026: 128 eligible apartment-right rows, median €1,431/m².
Middle 50% of the sample: €819–€2,436/m². These figures use reported consideration for a 100% full-ownership apartment right divided by its primary living area, excluding unfinished buildings and non-residential records.
Geographic scope: Corfu geographic sample. These historical records are not a matched sample of today's advertised properties.
Aug 2024–Jul 2025: N=48, median €1,077/m². Aug 2025–Jul 2026: N=34, median €1,530/m².
12-versus-12-month comparison: Not shown as a local price trend. At least one 12-month window has fewer than 50 qualifying apartment-right rows.
Important limits: N is a count of eligible rights-record rows, NOT verified unique notarised contracts. Only 31 months were available, not 36. Reporting delays, area coverage, declared consideration and a changing property mix limit interpretation. These are not quality-adjusted indices, individual property valuations or asking-to-sale discounts.
Why asking and transaction prices differ →BEFORE YOU COMMIT TO A PROPERTY
Four checks that deserve a local specialist.
- 01
Check the cadastral identity and boundaries of the precise property; do not use an archipelago-wide average.
- 02
Where relevant, obtain heritage and archaeological permissions advice before assuming renovations are permitted.
- 03
Have an engineer verify permit history, land-use, structural condition and additions.
- 04
Confirm lawful access and year-round water/wastewater arrangements, especially outside Corfu town.
These are prompts for individual legal and technical due diligence, not findings about any particular home. A lawyer and engineer should verify them for the actual property.
METHODOLOGY & BOUNDARIES
Different figures answer different questions.
Asking-price indicator
What sellers advertise in the named area and reference month. It is not a negotiated or notarised sale price. Sample size and composition may not be disclosed.
Bank-appraisal index
National bank-appraisal context only; no island-specific price index verified. Not an index of registered transfers for Corfu.
Recorded transfer observations
Screened 31-month apartment-right records show N and historic median separately from asking prices. Selected 12-month comparisons are unadjusted sample median differences, not a property-appreciation index. They are withheld when geography is mismatched or a period has fewer than 50 rows.
COMMON BUYER QUESTIONS
Questions worth asking before you buy.
Why is there no Corfu-wide asking price above?
The available geographic aggregate may include offshore islets. Until it is reconciled to the island-only boundary, presenting it as an island price would be misleading.
Are all Corfu homes in a UNESCO protection area?
No. The World Heritage designation relates to the Old Town; individual parcel restrictions must be verified separately.
Does a high coastal asking price predict resale value?
No. Comparable completed transfers, property rights, condition, accessibility and market depth must be assessed independently.
