I, Ursula, was born and raised in Germany and graduated from Heidelberg University before moving permanently to the Mani with my Greek husband Babis in 1989.
What began as our own search for a new life in southern Greece became a deep and lasting connection with this extraordinary region. Over more than three decades, we have built our lives here, developed strong local relationships and gained an in-depth understanding of the Mani, its people and its unique way of life.
My work in real estate grew naturally from this long-standing involvement in the region. For many years, I have been helping clients from Greece and abroad buy and sell properties in the Mani, combining international communication skills with extensive local knowledge.
I personally manage the presentation and marketing of our properties through our own website and selected national and international real estate platforms, ensuring that each property receives careful attention and reaches suitable buyers.
I am supported by my husband Babis, and together we form a team that combines international experience with deep local knowledge.
Babis, a native of Athens, has a deep understanding of the practical realities of life in Greece. Calm, reliable, and approachable, he supports clients throughout the property purchase process with honesty, transparency, and a practical mindset. His local knowledge and commitment to providing clear, dependable guidance make him a trusted point of contact every step of the way.
With his knowledge of local procedures and many years of experience dealing with practical matters, Babis helps clients navigate the steps that are often unfamiliar when buying property in Greece.
Over the years, we have also built a trusted network of local professionals, including lawyers, notaries, engineers, surveyors, building suppliers, skilled craftsmen and other specialists. This network allows us to assist our clients not only during the purchase or sale of a property, but also afterwards whenever local support is needed.
When we are not helping clients with their property journeys, we enjoy the life we chose more than three decades ago: welcoming guests at our accommodation business,
KTIRAKIA Studios, caring for our olive trees, swimming in the crystal-clear waters of the Mani and enjoying the simple pleasures of this beautiful region.
Babis is also involved in the production and export of high-quality olive oil from the Mani, as well as some other selected Greek products, which he supplies directly once a year to private customers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland (

Our work, our home and our daily lives are deeply connected to the Mani — and this genuine connection is something we are proud to share with our clients.
