Our agent can help you with a land search
in Cyprus. This
is one aspect that you do need to plan in advance of
your visit, and get what is available lined up to
see. We can then organise the support you will need
to take your property project forward - planning, legal,
design, build and so on.
We have a builder who will help with
property design, and
translate your ideas into working reality. Much more a bespoke service, but speak to us
about this option in detail, particularly about
finding a plot and property projects in
Cyprus.
There are lots of things to consider. For example
- marble floor tiles are beautiful - but in the
short winter can seem cold, so some rugs in your
lounge might be a good idea. You may want to
consider central heating. In the spring and autumn,
fans in bedrooms will be enough, rather than full
air conditioning.
Storage for tools is
something you need to think about when planning. The
property in Cyprus usually has a lot of internal storage but
you don't see many garden sheds!
The pool will
need maintenance - about £80 per month. You can do
it yourself without great difficulty, but when
you're away you need to make sure a friend or a
commercial company looks after it.
Key for the
budget is keeping track of the "extras" -
each time you have something that isn't standard you
will have to meet the cost, so do make sure you keep
a note of each extra spend.
During building in Cyprus, do
keep as close an eye as possible on progress,
particularly with non-standard features, either
through a friend or an agent. It's a good idea to
check at key points that your special request has
been included. Independent legal services are a very
good idea - see our "Useful Inks" page for
a recommended local lawyer - as you do need someone
who can champion you, rather than the developer. And
that's where we can help.
