The rent is very generous: therefore, the steady increase in the number of tourists has also brought about a substantial increase in housing demand. But at present, there are not many hotels in China and Greece, so it is impossible to meet this requirement. Therefore, the rental property management is more and more warmly welcomed by the public in the short term. In just 20 17, about 3 million Greek tourists will move into short rent property management. On Airbnb, a world-renowned service platform in short rent, Greek serviced apartments, holiday hotels in prosperous areas of Athens and other properties are very popular. Not only is the rental rate extremely low, but the rent is also very rich, which leads to more and more foreign investors' interest in learning.
