    Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know about investing in Cyprus property

    Not at all. Many of our investors are based in the UK, Europe, and beyond. We act as your trusted representatives on the ground — sourcing properties, managing due diligence, overseeing purchases, and handling ongoing management entirely remotely. You can complete the entire process without visiting Cyprus, though we do recommend a scouting trip if possible.

    Buyers should budget approximately 7-10% on top of the purchase price for transaction costs. This typically includes transfer fees (3-8% depending on property value, with reductions available for new builds), stamp duty (0.15-0.20%), legal fees (1-2%), and VAT on new builds (5% reduced rate for primary residences, 19% otherwise). We connect you with specialist Cyprus property lawyers to ensure full compliance.

    We never guarantee specific yields — any adviser who does should be approached with caution. Our published figures (8-15% gross for holiday rentals, 6-9% net for long-term lets) are based on real performance data from properties we manage. Actual returns depend on property type, location, specification, and market conditions. We'll provide realistic projections based on comparable properties before you commit.

    Cyprus has no restrictions on the transfer of funds abroad for EU and non-EU nationals alike. Rental income can be freely transferred to your home country bank account. Cyprus also has double taxation treaties with over 60 countries, which typically prevents you being taxed twice on the same income. We recommend consulting a tax adviser in your home country to structure things optimally.

    Entry-level investment apartments in Paphos start from around €120,000-€150,000 and can generate solid holiday rental yields. For Limassol, expect €200,000+ for comparable properties. New-build off-plan investments often require a deposit of 20-30% upfront with staged payments during construction. We'll help you identify the best opportunities within your budget during a free initial consultation.
