IONIAN PROPERTY specialists

Piers was recommended by a close friend as the person to help us find a seafront property in Corfu. He quickly grasped our brief, understanding our key requirements. The service was very personalised, confidential and discreet. We were impressed that he could conduct meetings with us either in Corfu or in London. Piers was able to present to us several exclusive off-market seafront opportunities; it was clear his knowledge of the area and market was second to none. He found us our ideal property, negotiated the deal and held our hands throughout the entire process.

Piers has been on hand to advise, acting in a pivotal role to coordinate our project for renovating the villa and enhancing the landscaping. He has also helped hire key personnel to aid with the day to day running of the property.

It is clear to us that Piers has excellent connections on the island and is well respected amongst the local community. Piers made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Piers and his way of conducting business to anyone considering buying property in Corfu.

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.

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.

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.

I have known Piers Williams for the past 15 years and he has helped me expertly with my various property projects in Paxos. I have found Piers to be knowledgeable and experienced with luxury property throughout the Ionian. He is trustworthy, professional and has an excellent reputation. I would not hesitate in recommending him.

My wife and I have known Piers for almost a decade now and we have retained him to source, negotiate and acquire many different plots of land to help create a unique and private location on top of a hill with exceptional views.

For five years we had been looking for the ‘right’ island location and on the first day exploring sites with Piers, we found ‘the one’. Piers is very smart and operates in a discreet and professional manner. He can read his clients very well, so there is nothing like a “one size fits all” approach with him. Unlike most real estate agents, Piers is not purely transactional, he will stay close to help and advise years after he sold you the plot or property - clearly always coming up with ideas about what could be done next.

What I always found most helpful, especially on an island like Corfu, is that he has a very good rapport with the local community – he is certainly semi-local, which is absolutely key and helps sort out problems should they arise. I happily recommend Piers to my friends or anyone wishing to buy land or property in North East Corfu.
