Piraeus Bank mortgages
Piraeus Bank was founded in 1916 and is one of Greece's four systemic banks.
It lends in three ways: fixed for 10 to 30 years, mixed (fixed for 3 to 30 years, then floating) or floating on 1-month Euribor. Terms go up to 35 years.
For a main home it normally lends up to 80%, and up to 90% for loans up to €500,000 under conditions. It is also one of the few banks that lend in Swiss francs, dollars or pounds, for people paid in those currencies.
