The Issues Many Greeks Living in Boston Face With Their Greek Properties and Affairs

Our general guidance to clients based in Boston is to establish and structure everything correctly and effectively from the start, with specialist advice provided by independent qualified professionals where required. This is critical to ensure that any property purchase, inheritance or other matter is correct and that there are no surprises. For example, with residency and to take advantage of tax breaks, you need to ensure your personal or company tax structure is set up correctly and the relevant filings with the authorities have been made.

Our independent legal and accounting partners have an understanding of the double tax treaty between Greece and the United States, and our team maintains a presence in Boston, regularly assisting our clients. When our personnel are not in Boston, they are in our Tsaks Consulting office in Athens servicing our clients’ needs.

Communicating With Our English and Greek Speaking Attorneys and Accountants in Boston

Our team here at Tsaks Consulting has extensive experience helping Greek Americans living in Boston and the surrounding area with all their legal, accounting and other needs in Greece through our independent professional network.

We pride ourselves on being easy to communicate with and are available to respond to your needs. We understand that you need to speak to someone with direct knowledge of the area of law or tax you require assistance with. That is why, where we do not have direct experience in an area, we refer you to (or work with) an independent lawyer or accountant with the appropriate experience.

For example, you may be living in Boston and have a minor property dispute / issue in Kefalonia. Whilst our independent accounting partners in Athens can assist with any tax-related matters, it is more cost-effective for you to use the services of a lawyer in Kefalonia, particularly if local court attendances may be involved. We can put you in contact with an independent attorney in Kefalonia.

Our team members are often in Boston assisting clients with their needs. We are also able to coordinate the appointment of an appropriately qualified independent professional to act under a power of attorney in order to manage your affairs in Greece on your behalf. When coordinating matters involving a power of attorney, we adopt a formal method of communication and keep you updated via email every step of the way.

In addition to providing the services outlined above, we also help Americans of Greek descent in Boston with citizenship applications and navigating the Greek regulatory system. This extends to establishing and operating businesses in Greece. Many of our clients own or have inherited property in Greece and/or have established business operations. From hotels to restaurants or industrial and renewable investments, they require tax and other advice from independent qualified professionals to ensure their businesses flourish and that they comply with all relevant regulations.

Our team and independent English-speaking Greek-registered legal and accounting partners in Athens and Boston assist with all your legal and compliance affairs in Greece.

In addition to assisting Americans of Greek descent, we also assist US residents to apply for greek residency including tax residency.

Client Testimonial

Tsaks Consulting are excellent mainly because they help take care of everything through their consultancy services and independent professional network. If you have taxes in both the US and Greece, they can assist. Their independent accountant partners are efficient and have a strong knowledge of the Greece / US Double Tax Treaty. In addition, when you need to do something major, for example inherit property in Greece or sell a property, they can assist, and they will support you in a coordinated way. Another key point which I liked about using Tsaks Consulting and their independent legal and accounting partners is their prices. They charge reasonable prices and are completely transparent about everything.

Nikos P | Greek Expat living in Athens

The team at Tsaks Consulting Greece assisted me with the inheritance of a property in Greece, my taxes, and the ultimate sale of the property through their independent legal and accounting partners. It was a relatively complicated process just by the nature of the transaction, but they made the process as simple as possible and they communicated with us every step of the way. The Tsaks Consulting team and their independent legal and accounting partners worked well together and we had a comprehensive understanding of all the costs and taxes we were liable for. We were referred to the Tsaks Consulting Greece team by a family friend who is also a member of the Boston Greek American community and now lives in Athens. We have since found that many people use Tsaks Consulting and they are considered one of the leading consultancies for expats from America looking for assistance with their affairs in Greece. They provide excellent service and their independent professional partners understand the Greek American Double Tax Treaty.
