We most wholeheartedly commend and recommend Piers Williams, based upon our association with him over several years, during which acted as our real estate agent in the sale of a Corfu property. We found him to be dedicated and resourceful in the sale of our property.

It was an extraordinarily difficult period in Greece, both economically and in the real estate market. Piers was absolutely focused on finding a buyer and seeing the deal through, despite many unexpected obstacles. We encountered an unusual number of challenging difficulties during this transaction and were particularly impressed by Piers' positive approach to finding a solution at every juncture. If one strategy did not work, he found another path to deal with the issue at hand. He confronted zoning issues, unexpected taxation and legal questions, governmental and regulatory frustrations, as well as dealing with a variety of personalities with a solution-oriented outlook, tact and diplomacy.

We were impressed by the team he assembled and his flexibility in organising them to resolve questions. We found him adept at dealing with the local problems and always finding a solution and at ease with dealing with people in all situations. We felt we could rely upon him to fully represent us in every way. We would recommend him as a dedicated and highly reliable and effective professional.

Robert and Nancy Lamb, New York

“I have spent several years looking into buying land and building in NE Corfu and have now happily finished our dream project.

There are many pitfalls in Corfu and the opportunities to fall into them are numerous. But, Piers has been invaluable to me and helped me to arrive at the right destination knowing the area extremely well. If you are seriously looking at real estate in North East Corfu he is totally trustworthy, transparent and incredibly helpful. His knowledge of the area, the people and the environment for a foreign buyer is unrivalled. I would happily recommend him to anyone thinking of purchasing or building on Corfu.

Simon Daglish, Deputy Managing Director, Commercial – ITV Plc

Piers helped us to find our perfect villa and provided insightful market knowledge during our search. He advised us throughout the acquisition process and introduced us to the best possible professional team. He subsequently located the owners of two neighbouring plots and secured these for us to buy.
He has advised on and overseen various aspects of the renovation and landscaping of our villa and has handled a complex land acquisition with seven different owners on our behalf.

His knowledge and local connections are second to none and he has always acted in a trustworthy and professional manner. We could not have done any of this without Piers, he is an excellent guy and we cannot recommend his services highly enough.

Tom Biggart, Chief Investment Officer and Director, Motor Fuel Group Limited

I have known Piers since 2002 when we met in Corfu. In 2004 we decided to build a property there and Piers sourced us three different but adjoining plots of land. During the acquisition process we granted Piers power of attorney and employed him as our Project Manager.

Over the years Piers has made some very good contacts on the Island of Corfu from builders, solicitors, architects, bank managers - all of whom hold him in high regard. He used these contacts to oversee the construction of our property from start to finish.
With the project of building our house I also gave Piers power of attorney for my bank account and to get all the legal papers done without us having to commute to the island ourselves, which enabled him to pay the constructors throughout the build and enabled him to get the services connected, so we had complete faith in him. Everything that we asked Piers to do - he did and the build came in on time.

The Hon Mrs C Robinson

Piers Williams and his firm, Ionian International, have provided professional advice to my family over the past 14 years in relation to both the acquisition and valuation of property in the Ionian. He has acted for us on a number of occasions and has always been trustworthy, consistently knowledgeable, responsive and professional and I look forward to continuing to work with him in the future.

Lord Rothschild

I first met Piers Williams in April 2006 when I arranged to view a property in Corfu, at very short notice. Notwithstanding the difficult timing, he took a great deal of trouble to show us several properties up and down the North East and we made an offer the same day on the property which we had originally come to view.

The transaction was very protracted owing to the size of the property, the complex title and various other factors. Piers worked very patiently to disentangle the various impediments, negotiated with both the elderly owner and her lawyer and gradually cleared the way to a completion. This included arranging the removals for the vendor.

Since that time, Piers has kept in touch offering us opportunities for further investment on the island as well as offering advice on strategy for the development of our properties. Specifically, he recommended an agent who negotiated the sale of our Athens flat on very good terms.

He has demonstrated detailed knowledge of the property market in Greece and a wide knowledge of who and what is involved. In Greece, this requires the ability to work within a very ‘tight’ society in which transactions are rarely straightforward, and where a greater than usual political skill and patience is required. Piers has managed to retain a reputation for probity and to remain on good terms with everybody there.
