There is no Greek law that outlaws the existence of the Greek Royal Family.
The Palaces and different villas the family had at its disposal since George I, have all become property of the State.
Now that just about everything of value the State owns is up for sale, perhaps Tatoi will be sold to someone who would respect the Palace enough to properly restore it and turn it into a museum.

haha . .I do not believe that nobody would buy this palace to make a museum, it would cost more than the palace. the person who would buy it,they might make their residence, Psychiko was sold two years ago,it was say that it would be one museum,today is a private residence

I was hoping someone with ready cash and respect for the location's history would turn it into a museum. Does not mean it will ever happen
Psychiko was sold many moons ago to a Cypriot shipowner who obviously resold it a couple of years ago. The family did not own it for a long time.

...Or assigning it, because it might be awarded to a bank and the bank will sell it or they might accept the proposal of Mayor of Salonika of do one plant vines on it or it is more possible that they(the State) wanted money, maximum profit, then would sell it at auction. The future will be who say it.

Well the good thing about Greece being a bankrupt and apparently ungovernable state is that they will likely have to sell off state assets in order to keep the lights on. It may well be possible to pick up what is left of Tatoi or even Mon Repos for a bargain basement price. Heck you may even be able to buy the Parthenon and put it in the British Museum next to the Elgin Marbles if things get any worse. If the Greeks couldn't look after their national heritage during the good times they will never be able to do it now.
