Re: Deed pending

Hi Irini Yes - you would be buying a property without its all-important Title Deed. You can't fully protect yourself but you could hold back a decent proportion of the sale price until a 'clean' Title Deed has been issued. Do you know if the planning department has inspected the property and issued ...

Hello Dave

As you say it's a complex situation and I suggest you take legal advice on the matter. as it's far beyond my knowledge and experience.

Perhaps someone else on the forum can advise.

Re: Statute of Limitation on loan default

Hi TD

I expect Sunlover1972 may have resolved his/her problem as they've not been active on this forum for more than six months.

As for the Statute of Limitation Law, you can find a machine translation at Statute of Limitations Law (Law 66(I)/2012).

Re: Zone C3 Agricutural Land

It will be interesting to see what happens, there could be a conflict in the law.

I believe those who inherit property still need Council of Ministers approval before they can own it.

Re: Zone C3 Agricutural Land

Hi David

I don't know what you wish to do with your properties on your demise, perhaps leave it to your children in your Will?

However, as Brits can no longer own agricultural land there may be a problem if you leave your it to your children (assuming they're British or non-EU citizens.)

Re: Zone C3 Agricutural Land

Hi David

There may be a further problem, I've just remembered that following Brexit there are restrictions on what Brits can buy - see Buying property in Cyprus and visiting post Brexit

Do you already have any property in Cyprus?
