About

Are you looking for a house in Peloponnese? Do you want to write a new story of your life? Do you miss 265 sunny days a year?  You are not alone:). This was also our dream and now we want to help other people who share our interests.

Elwira and Elias, your Housefinders Peloponnese with internationell network

My name is Elwira Kotowska, I was born in Warsaw and for 26 years I lived in Sweden. Cosmopolitan in heart and constantly looking for new ways in life. I am a specialist in project management and a major in digital marketing.

My partner, Elias Johnsson, was born in Athens and moved to Sweden at the age of 4. He is a business administrator and application manager by profession.

From rainy Sweden to sunny Greece

In 2015, after our holiday around the Peloponnese peninsula, we decided to move. The place was pretty easy to choose: Mani Peninsula is divinely beautiful! Finding our dream house was not so easy: we needed to balance budget and our dreams. At the end of 2016, we bought “our place on earth” (in Nomitsi), where we build our dream house with a view of the Mediterranean! From the 1 of September 2020 are we “the locals” and protect our home with Hestia painting,  the goddess of the family hearth and of the universe. From November 2020 are we 3E: Elias, Elwira and Estia, the DOG.

To begin with, we had both worked with our Swedish customers. Nowadays, Elias still does it but I take care of Housefinders Peloponnese partners, customers and websites and working with that full time. We both hope to help more people with the “escape to Greece” project. Below our little paradise in the village of Nomitsi.

Our area: Messinia and Argolis

We can help you buy/sell  or rent/let out the house or the apartment in the area in or around ​​Kalamata and Nafplio. Hire us to sell/buy a house or plot in the Peloponnese or to rent/let out your home: we work with a mix of Greek creativity and European structure and trust:). We speak greek, english, swedish and polish. We will never promise you something we can not deliver and we always work with them who we know and trust. We deliver answers and solutions quickly. We simply still remember our own hunting and we know how we can help you to avoid some mistakes we made on our own. More about Elwira and her photos here.

Update on our company 2023

Being flexible is the key to success, right? The last few years have been very successful for HouseFinders Peloponnese and we registered our joint company which is now called HouseFinders Peloponnese IKE.

For Elias and me, “our” Greece is a way to find the balance between concentration and distraction, between hard-driven goals and rebellious freedom, between rules and spontaneity. We know how we want to live and live. And many ideas around the development of our business concept are based on what we ourselves believe in and want to help others with.

No more short term rentals! From January 2024 we will only work with long-term rentals. The shortest period you can rent through us is one month.

We have many satisfied rental guests from all over the world. You will find all references at HouseFinders Peloponnese.com . Below is a reference from a family from the Czech Republic:

“Elwira and Elias were very helpful. They helped us manage our winter stay with two small children and also helped us with many practical tips during our stay personally. We had a great time in the Mani region and Housefinder Peloponnese customer service was very good. The property descriptions (photos and facts) match reality, but no pictures are enough to show the beauty of the Mani area. We were satisfied and if we come back we will contact them again”.

We have also expanded our service area and can offer our customers project management for their construction projects and various help with finding contacts or help when starting your life in our wonderful Mani! You can read more about this under our FAQ page . Below a reference ( several on HouseFinders Peloponnese.com ) from our customers from Switzerland:

“We really appreciated their service and the offer from Elwira and Elias. They always work transparently, honestly and are eager to accommodate and implement our requests. This made their manner trustworthy. We found them to be helpful, warm-hearted and humorous. Their professionalism and good network in Mani are expedient and make cooperation simple and uncomplicated. We felt we were in good hands. We found a house that met our expectations and wishes and would use Housefinder’s services again at any time”.
