FAQ
Questions, answered
Buying a home abroad raises questions. Here are the ones we hear most. If yours isn’t here, ask us.
Buying
Can foreigners buy property in North Cyprus?
Yes. Foreign buyers can buy property in North Cyprus. The purchase needs a permission to purchase from the Council of Ministers, which your lawyer applies for. Ask us how long it currently takes.
How does buying work, step by step?
1. Choose a home, on a Property Tour or from our floor plans. 2. Reserve it. 3. Your lawyer checks the title and the contract. 4. Sign the contract and register it at the Land Registry. 5. Pay according to the payment plan. 6. Receive the keys, followed by the title deed transfer.
How does buying off-plan work?
You buy a home before it is finished and pay in stages under a payment plan. The contract sets out the specification, the payment stages and the delivery date. Have your own lawyer review it before you sign.
Title deeds & lawyers
What kind of title deed will I get?
Title deeds in North Cyprus come in different types, depending on the history of the land. For each project we tell you which title applies, and your lawyer checks it before you sign.
Do I need my own lawyer?
Yes, we recommend an independent lawyer for every purchase. On the Property Tour you also have a legal consultation, where you can ask about contracts, title deeds and the buying process.
Taxes & fees
What taxes and fees do I pay when buying?
On top of the price: VAT 5%, contract registration 1%, title deed transfer 3% and stamp duty 0.5%, so 9.5% in total. The calculator on every project page can show them.
Are the taxes and fees part of the payment plan?
No. They are paid separately. The down payment and the monthly instalments are worked out on the price of the home alone.
Payment plans
How do the payment plans work?
You pay a down payment, then the balance in equal monthly instalments at 0% interest. Each project has its own terms:
- Terraca: from 50% down, up to 48 months
- Riviera: from 40% down, up to 36 months
- Vasilia View: from 50% down, up to 24 months
- Bluescape Villas: from 50% down, up to 12 months
- Ayana: from 40% down, up to 36 months
- Allure Villas: from 50% down, up to 18 months
- Lara Villas: from 40% down, up to 36 months
Which currency are prices in?
Prices are in British pounds (GBP). The calculator can also show them in euros or US dollars at a live rate.
Property Tour
What is the Property Tour?
A 4-day, 3-night visit to North Cyprus for serious buyers. Provided: the property tour, accommodation, airport transfers, legal assistance and a tour around the island.
Property TourHow do I sign up?
Choose your dates on the Property Tour page and answer a few short questions. We get back to you personally to confirm.
What if none of the dates suit me?
Tell us when you could come, in the sign-up or on WhatsApp, and we’ll see what we can arrange.
Rental
Can I rent out my home?
Yes, you can rent out your home when you are not using it. Ask us how this works for the project you like. Riviera is planned with its own rental concept, explained on its page. We don’t quote rental income.
Buying from abroad
Can I buy without travelling to North Cyprus?
Yes, much of it can be done from abroad. We send floor plans, prices and the payment plan in writing, and a lawyer can act for you with a power of attorney. If you’d like to see the homes first, the Property Tour is made for that.
How do I pay from abroad?
By bank transfer, following the payment plan in your contract. Ask us for the details for your project.
Which languages do you speak?
We reply in English, German, Turkish or Russian.
