A practically year-round season and two different sides of the island
Cyprus is an island split into two parts with different rules and price levels. The south (Republic of Cyprus) is an EU member and uses the euro. The north has been going through a significant construction boom in recent years, and entry prices there are noticeably lower. Each option suits a different type of investor.

The figures shown are based on publicly available data and our own market experience. Neither historical appreciation nor projections guarantee future returns — the actual outcome depends on the project, location, occupancy, and quality of management.
Swimming in spring and autumn means occupancy outside the main summer months too, not just July and August.
In the Republic of Cyprus you buy in euros, in an EU country — no currency risk for euro-based investors, and a familiar legal environment.
The northern part of the island is experiencing a construction boom, and entry prices are significantly lower than in the south. The legal regime is different, though — we'll walk you through it in advance.
Which end of the island makes sense depends on your horizon and risk appetite. We'll go through the differences honestly, not with one recommendation for everyone.
In the countries where we offer property — Albania, Georgia, and Cyprus — foreign investors can own property with no significant restrictions. We'll guide you through the whole process, including local legislation and the necessary paperwork.
The southern part (Republic of Cyprus) is an EU member and uses the euro. The northern part has a different legal regime, lower entry prices, and is going through a construction boom. We'll discuss which end of the island makes sense based on your horizon and goals.
Yes, we arrange financing both abroad and entirely within the Czech Republic — mortgages as well as consumer loans.
New properties are subject to VAT (standard rate 19%, or a reduced 5% for first-home conditions, also available to foreigners). If VAT doesn't apply, a transfer fee applies instead on a sliding scale of roughly 3–8% of the price.
Yes, we offer ongoing management and rental services, so you don't have to manage the property remotely yourself.
These are usually stamp duty (roughly half a percent), VAT of around 5%, and a title transfer fee, which is higher for foreign buyers than for locals. We'll work out an exact calculation for the specific listing you're interested in.
Yes, foreigners need what's called a Purchase Permit. Processing usually takes a few months, but you can typically already use the property while waiting, based on the registered purchase contract. We'll walk you through the whole process step by step.
It depends on the specific property and country — for completed projects it's usually a matter of weeks, for properties under construction it takes longer because of the payment schedule. You'll always get a realistic estimate for the specific listing you're interested in.
The market in northern Cyprus has operated for decades, but the legal framework differs from the EU, and there are several types of title with varying degrees of risk. That's why we always have an independent lawyer verify the property's title before signing — it's one of the steps we handle on your behalf.
The price shown on a listing is final for you as the buyer — regardless of whether the commission is added on top or paid by the developer. This holds in most cases, unless a specific listing states otherwise or only shows a price per m².
Thanks to a practically year-round season (swimming in spring and autumn too), occupancy outside the main summer months tends to be higher than in other Mediterranean destinations. Specific figures vary significantly by location and which side of the island — we'll discuss them for the specific listing.
Most steps (choosing, reserving, and even signing) can be handled remotely through a power of attorney. We do always recommend an in-person viewing, ideally before signing — we're happy to plan one with you.
A direct flight takes about 3.5 hours. There are more seasonal connections over summer; outside the season you usually fly with a connection.
We check every project and developer ourselves first — history, documentation, construction status, and references. Only a fraction of what we see on the market makes it into our listings.
It comes in handy for payments and any financing. In the south (the eurozone), opening an account is simpler and faster than in the north — we'll help with choosing a bank and setting it up.
We'll help with the sale too — either through our network of investors or the local real estate agencies we work with. We don't sell it for you ourselves, but we'll guide you through the whole process.
Yes, we handle all communication with the developer and local authorities for you — you don't need to speak the local language or even English.
