Capability 02
Cyprus property law retains deep roots in English common law while incorporating elements specific to the jurisdiction – including a title deed system that continues to evolve following decades of legislative reform. For buyers, sellers, and developers alike, navigating this landscape requires a lawyer who understands both the legal technicalities and the practical realities of the market.
We act for private individuals purchasing residential property, international investors acquiring commercial assets, developers structuring off-plan sales, and sellers seeking a clean and efficient transfer. Our approach is the same in each case: thorough due diligence before commitment, clear advice throughout, and rigorous protection of our client's position at every step.
For foreign nationals, additional considerations apply – including Council of Ministers approval requirements for non-EU buyers and specific considerations around property ownership structures. We provide clear, practical advice on these matters so that international clients can invest with confidence.
Areas of Practice
We act for buyers and sellers in all types of property transactions – from private residential purchases to large commercial acquisitions and portfolio transfers.
Off-plan purchases carry unique risks. We review and advise on developer contracts to ensure our clients' deposits and completion rights are properly protected.
One of the most complex aspects of Cyprus property law. We advise buyers on title deed risk before purchase and assist existing owners in obtaining or regularising title registration.
We act for lenders and borrowers in the creation, registration, and enforcement of mortgages over Cyprus real property.
Thorough due diligence before exchange is essential. We conduct comprehensive legal checks on both the property and the vendor.
For non-EU nationals, Cyprus property acquisition requires additional regulatory approvals. We advise on both the approval process and the most appropriate ownership structure.
We handle the transfer of title at the Land Registry and advise on all associated fees, taxes, and procedural requirements.
Cyprus tenancy law presents significant practical challenges. We advise both landlords and tenants on their rights and obligations.
