Re: Will I pay VAT when selling multiple properties

Hi espghia Unless you bought the house and the land in the name of a company, you shouldn't have to pay any VAT - as resales are not subject to VAT. However, friends of mine sold a large plot of land ant the Ta Department considered it was a company sale, despite the fact they bought it jointly in t...

Re: Zone C3 Agricutural Land

Hi David

There isn't a letter 'C' in the Greek language - where did you get the information?

It's most probably Γ3 (gamma) - G in English. ('Γ' is the third letter in the Greek alphabet.)

Re: Seeking Guidance on Managing Inherited Company Share

Hi Dave

I'm sorry, I can't help you any further. What you're asking is way outside my knowledge/experience.

Perhaps an accountant or an auditor could advise.

Re: Seeking Guidance on Managing Inherited Company Share

Hi Dave

Presumably your late father's company was audited? I suggest you contact the auditors for a copy of their report.

There is a website at https://www.infocredit.com.cy/Default.aspx that may have details of the company.

Re: Is this calculation accurate?

Let's say the house is 250 sqm and it's priced at €300,000.

On the first 200sqm (which is 80% of the house) you pay 5% on 80% of the €300,000

On the remaining 50sqm. (which is 20% of the house) you pay 19% on 20% of the €300,000.

Re: Non payment of communal fees

Hi Keith I suggest you contact BoC - they should pay fees from the date they took (repossessed?) the property. As for the others, you'll need a lawyer to get a court order instructing the Land Registry to place a charge on the properties owned by the debtors. (There's a new law in the pipeline that ...

Just to add t Pan's comment.

We had friends who lived on the Kamares development in Paphos. During the hunting season shotgun pellets occasionally showered their home.
