Re: Real estate buyers in Cyprus are Struggling

I find the article today very interesting especially the penultimate paragraph saying that real estate agents dont set the prices for properties for sale and rent. We are always being reminded to use a licenced agency. If they dont advise on the price then what services do they provide . Just marke...

Re: General POA revocation

Thank you so much for your quick respond Nigel. How is this kind of document handed to a family member without using a service of a lawyer so it will also be considered legit? Do I need to certify it? Do I need registered mail with signature of the recipient? As you can clearly understand, the fami...

Re: Re costs per Square metre for building

Your architect can answer this question. He will cost it out with the spec you tell him. euros/m2 floor tiles, wall title, granite tops etc. 2000E/m2 is excessive, you ought to be looking at 1400-1500/m2 at todays prices. Remembering that this is just the house not landscaping, kitting it out furnis...

Re: Committee closing off Pedestrian Access

Hi Emma I've been looking though the relevant law , but haven't found anything that prevents a Management Committee taking the action you describe. A simple (and probably an acceptable) solution to the security problem would be to give all owners a key to the gates. Regards, Nigel, I would argue th...

Re: Bad Debtors Rights

Do you mean people that haven't / don't pay communal fees?

If they don't pay they cannot use the facilities. Of course you cannot block access to their property.

Re: Boundaries Title Deed problem

Be very careful when buying land. It has been known that buyers are shown a different parcel to what they buy. 1. Ask for a new updated title deed with the second page 2. Ask for an official upto date cadastral plan. 3. Get a new lawyer, lest you get 'shafted', excuse my French. 4. The parcel shope ...

Re: Illegal Building

Nigel, He does specify it is on agricultural land and if there are no planning permits already in place, it is more than likely he won't get them anyway, depending. And to poster vendela: you don't necessarily lose the permit, you can re-apply to legalise the changes made as long as they are not too...

Re: Sale Deposit

Thank you for your quick reply. What is the point of reservation fee if he /she still accepts offers elsewhere. I thought it secured the property for 30 days. If I pulled out I would lose the deposit, yet he can pull out and I get left with the bill for the surveyor? The pre-sales agreement, should...
