Suitable clients

Who is this engagement designed for?

Control principles

The engagement is built around explicit authority.

No person enters without an authorised purpose and access record

Works above the agreed limit require owner approval except defined emergencies

Technical, security and insurance conclusions belong to qualified providers

Reports distinguish direct observation from a contractor’s opinion

Workstreams and evidence

Every workstream has a responsible owner and usable output.

Property baseline and access control

The onboarding records systems, warranties, recurring obligations, approved keyholders and emergency contacts. Existing defects are separated from future incidents.

Outputs

Routine oversight

Agreed local providers complete scheduled observations using a property-specific checklist. Reports identify the date, person, evidence and action required without presenting visual checks as engineering inspections.

Outputs

Works and arrival readiness

We collect quotations, coordinate approved access, document attendance and obtain completion evidence. Before the owner arrives, the agreed readiness checklist is completed.

The preferred model is direct payment by the owner or family office to the authority or supplier. Automated bank mandates can be arranged by the account holder where appropriate; we do not hold an informal client float.

Is the service available on every Greek island?

Not automatically. Coverage is accepted only after reliable local inspection, contractor and emergency arrangements are verified for the specific property.
