Re: Withholding communal fees
Hi Brian I've been looking through your posts. Have you seen the problem for yourself? Typically, a sewerage system is just a series of pipes that direct the brown waste to a septic tank. The tank retains the solids and the liquid drains into the subsoil. The tank has to be emptied occasionally, but...

Re: T/C Guardianship query - property southern Cyprus
Dear Maddy Welcome to the forum. I can't help you with this and you'll need someone here to make enquiries on your behalf (a lawyer). Do you have the Title Deed for the property? Or perhaps the Cypriot ID of the person from whom you inherited the property? The Department of Lands & Surveys, which is...

Re: Withholding communal fees
Dear Brian Welcome to the forum. The Management Committee (MC) can request and pay for contractors to carry out remedial work, with monies collected from the owners as part of their communal fee contributions. Regarding the new sewerage system, the MC should have requested warrantees on the labour a...

Re: Greek in Canada
I stand corrected Pan. I mis-read the entry requirements at https://www.visitcyprus.com/index.php/en/practical-info/entry-requirements : Passports and Visas Admission and Transit Restrictions Entry regulations apply only to the areas controlled by the Government of the Republic of Cyprus. A passport...

Re: Greek in Canada
Hi Irini and welcome to the forum. I think it would be wise to get a Greek passport. There are four Missions of Greece in Canada that you can find at https://www.mfa.gr/canada/en/about-us.html If you enter Cyprus on a Canadian passport you'll probably get a 90-day stamp in your passport. This will l...

Re: Parents Flat - Looking to sell. Father Passed Away.
Hi JK Pleased you managed to find the paperwork. Many people register their Wills with the Registrar at their local court, which ensures the Wills do not get lost. Unfortunately you cannot change the lawyer who's named in a Will as the executor as this would go against the final wishes of the deceas...

Re: CAEDB - Tax on Sales
If your lawyer received 300+ letters, imagine how many thousands were sent to other lawyers.
All down to the incompetence of MPs.

Re: CAEDB - Tax on Sales
Hi HappyCamper The law was introduced in February 2021 that levied 0.4% tax of all sales of immovable property. The 0.4%, was to go towards supporting Greek Cypriot refugees for their inability to possess, have access to, or otherwise gainfully use their land in the occupied north. However, the law ...

Re: Boundary external wall
Hi RobertJ and welcome to the forum As he's attached a port to your property's exterior wall, he's probably guilty of criminal damage. He needs to remove it and pay the costs of repairing your wall. As Vendela has noted he's probably built the porch and made changes to his car port illegally. Regards,

Re: Co-owned flat doesn't show on Cyprus DLS portal
Hi Pan A general search of the DLS database will not show who owns the property, etc. , but it will show the location of the property, its size, and a few other bits and pieces. (I've done this before for those wanting to know how their communal fees are calculated.) At least I'll be able to see if ...

Re: Asset Backed Loan
Hi donotjudge
The best people to ask about this is a bank, but I believe it should be possible to use the land as collateral for a loan.
