We are on the edge of Skiathos town from the 12th.. We have contacted 2 estate agents regarding 2 properties although only one initial reply then nothing….maybe it’s the time of year. We are not millionaires only modest budget for a property although I think we might be able to purchase…..thank you

Welcome. You’ll find lots of helpful information here, though I’m not sure any of us who post regularly own property on the island.
I know a few who do, though.

Hello thank you. We have had a look at the website and are viewing a property if still available in June. We contacted Lila from Skiathos property any other estate agents would be helpful. We only have a modest budget so looking for a one or two bed property for just the 2 of us although my children and grandchildren may visit.

This will be perfect, then. wp.skiathosproperty.com/property/5-bedroom-luxury-villa-with-pool-and-outstanding-views/

More generally, how long are you going for? I'd love to live on the island, but I've been 8 times. I think it'd be great to visit a few times, and try to spend a longer amount of time there than the typical 7-14 days. I only really started to get to 'know' Skiathos on my 6th visit or so, and I'd still want to rent there for at least a month before buying. Good luck, and keep us posted.
