Hello…hope everyone is well. We hope to visit Crete in September 2021 we are viewing a few properties near Hersonissos and are hoping to buy. We will use as a holiday home for the next 2 years and then stay 5-6 months a year. I am a UK resident although can apply for an Irish passport through my Grandparents. Any advise about banking… house building and contents insurance for holiday home as it would not be a permanent home….covering earthquakes insurance health insurance residency for myself when having Irish passport and my wife a UK resident would be helpful. Any advise about utilities council property taxes and pay as you go internet packages would be welcome and fingers crossed for our visit.
