Cyprus Property Forum for Buyers, Sellers & Investors

I have a tenanted proeprty in pahos, with a tennat on a one yera lease. Obviously, I have insurance for buildings, contents (it is rented furnished) and legal liability.

In the UK, landliords have certain obligations, such as having the boiler serviced once a year and to certain standards etc

Are there any legal obligations for me as a landlord that I should know about please?

I asked my Cyprus letting agent to arrange to have the water heater and air con serviced, but he said that they were working fine, so didn't need it.

Any guidance would be appreciated

Thank you

Hi Kirby,

I found some information for you at http://www.legalpropnet.com/cyprus_prop ... guide.html - about two thirds down the page is a section on 'Landlord's rights and responsibilities'.

From what I can discover they are 'property managers' based in Paphos.

Regards,

Thanks so much Nigel, that is brilliant

Hi Nigel,

Thanks for the link, having read some of it, I came across this that made em chuckle:

Tenant has right to... - Quiet enjoyment the property. This covers a lot of ground, but it essentially means the landlord cannot come in unannounced. He also cannot...
- Change locks without giving you warning and new keys
- Cut off utilities
- Tamper with your mail or possessions
- Verbally or physically threaten or abuse you
- Enter your home while you are out
- Neglect the property
- Prevent your friends from visiting.


What d'you reckon, time for a re-write????

Hi Pan

Are we talking about landlords or prison warders
