Buy Villas In Cyprus...A Dream Come True

By: Tim Martins

If you have reached the stage that you are looking into property investment, buying a holiday villa or just looking at somewhere new to set up, then you should definitely consider the option of Cyprus as it has become an ideal location for property investment and will carry on being so for many years to come. Recently Cyprus was made a full member of the EU and it's economic growth hasn't stopped since causing it to become a very popular place to live. So much so that the foreign resident population has reached new highs as more and more people are choosing Cyprus to start a new life. As things stand at the moment you really can't go wrong as far as property investment is concerned and your lifestyle will change for the better too.

Cyprus is a very rich country in natural resources down to its perfect location and excellent all year round climate. Excellent progress has also been made in communications, transport and trade due to it's new relationship with the EU, which provides Cyprus with 50% of it's trade. This is boosted up with the nearly 3 million European tourists that visit Cyprus every year. Cyprus is geographically located close to Africa and the Middle East which turns it into a very unique country for property investment.

Real Estate in Cyprus has been increasing in value over recent years and experts predict that this growth will increase. As more and more houses are constructed, demand is still greater than supply. If you have been considering purchasing property in Cyprus then now is the ideal time to do it: before prices begin to rise steeply. Many property investors have regretted not taking similar opportunities in Spain when the property boom began so do not miss out on the exciting opportunities in Cyprus.

Fortunately, for interested Cyprus property investors, there are a large number of houses and villas all over the island from which to choose. In fact, the choice can sometimes be overwhelming, and, since there are literally hundreds of real estate agents as well as developers in Cyprus, it's important that you get a handle on the real estate situation there before you begin your search.

Another fortunate aspect of buying Cyprus properties is that many Cypriots speak English as a second language (it's taught in all the schools). Moreover, since all of the solicitors and property agencies have English-speaking staff, there's very little likelihood that you'll experience any communication problems during business transactions. Yet another favorable aspect is that, as a result of Britain's occupation of Cyprus up until the 1960s, Cyprus' legal system closely resembles the UK's legal system.

Two differences that you should be aware of are that as a non-resident of the island it is only permitted for you to own one piece of property on Cyprus (although there is a possibility of this changing in the future) and that when buying new Cypriot property, it is quite likely that the title deeds will not be received for up to five years after completion. Importantly this does not prevent sale of the property before the documents are received, in fact some people already sell on their properties before construction is complete.
