Assume I’m stupidly wealthy and want my own Greek island. Is there a way to figure out the price tag and whom to approach?
ETA: ninja’d, we both had the same idea.
You both just happened to have the same idea as me? Warms up James Bond-style orbital death ray 
Thanks, that’s good information!
I know that it is ony a quirk of the exchange rate, but a price tag of USD 3,235,162.87 makes me laugh. I like pseudo precision!
One thing you should take into acount on those Greek islands - on any island, actually - is whether it has drinking water or not. If you need to import water or desalinize in situ it is much less fun. And if there is water: taste it. On that kind of island it may not be poisonous, but it may taste too bad to make tea, coffee, ice cubes, soup, spaghetti… you name it. Takes a lot of fun from those islands if you run thirsty.
We have friends who own a one third share of an island off Belize. The total price was $300,000. The plan was to build a villa on it and rent the whole island for something like $5,000 a night. One of the partners dropped out and they have been trying to sell it at cost for the last three years.
Wow, 3 million sounds down-right affordable!
This is fun site to play around on.
I was wondering that, too. And also if there’s electricity. And Internet.
If you’re rich enough to buy an island, you should be able to afford a large solar array, a battery for when the sun don’t shine, and a Starlink.
As far as water, there are water condensers that will provide that. Should produce better water than desalinization, since I understand that never really gets all the salt out.
Cite? Desalinization produces water that is perfectly potable.
It’s impossible to remove all salt from water without distilling. But some salt in water does not make it undrinkable. When I fix up water for bike riding or working out, I add some low sodium salt to tap water. I have to add a fair amount before it’s even tasteable. So “better” is not the right word there; “purer” would be more exact.
John Fluke Sr (if you are an EE or electrician, you know Fluke instruments) owned a small San Juan island of about 220 acres, Vendovi Island. After he died, it went up for sale for about $14M. The San Juan Preservation Trust was able to buy it for about half that amount. So that gives you an idea of an island in the Puget Sound. Not quite Greek 
It is a cool place to visit. John built a saw mill so he could cut and saw his own building materials.
It also helps if there is a place to park a boat.
…and would you be wanting a beach? Not many of those in an inland sea that does not have much in the way of a tidal range.
Many Greek islands are pretty much barren rocks and very arid. The pretty ones are all taken.
Aside: I was once teaching a middle school class, that was doing a project where they had to describe their dream vacation, and then research all of the costs associated with it. No maximum budget was set; they just had to account for all of the costs and come up with a total.
Well, one pair decided that it would be too much trouble to rent a hotel room, and buy airplane tickets, and so on, and so they planned their vacation around buying their own island, building their own hotel on it, buying their own airline, and so on. And they did, in fact, research the costs of all of those things, so it worked for the project.
There’s a very nice beach about a mile from me, on a tideless lake.
Well, you could ask 500,000 users here.
yachts use desalination, they call them water makers.
eg Idromar Watermakers for Boats - Gineico Marine AU
Just buy a barge and a water truck.
Or just win one…
