Cyprus – An Investor’s Paradise

January 5th, 2009

North Cyprus is an island full of historical culture and beholds a unique beauty and has become very popular with holidaymakers from all over Europe. With sunny days exceeding 300 per year and offering loads of sandy beaches right along its coastline, it isn’t hard to see just why so many tourists have fallen in love with North Cyprus.

Such prominent property investment markets like Cyprus reap high return benefits of around 4-5% per year for the coming ten years. This type of revenue returns seem set to carry on for the foreseeable future, meaning Cyprus will retain a stable economy and growth will continue in the right direction.

Whilst Cyprus has been popular with property investors for a number of years, the level of interest in developments on the island have increased in recent times. Attracted by a variety of different factors including favourable tax conditions, high standards of living and a strong tourism industry, property investors are not only looking on Cyprus favorably, they are seeing it as one of Europe’s premier investment opportunities at present.

As well as the obvious attraction of the increasing demand for tourism on the island, there are a number of other factors which have aligned in recent time to present a more favourable investment opportunity. In particular, Cyprus’ accession to full membership of the European Union (and the increased trading opportunities associated with this) has produced a vibrant and thriving economy, which coupled with the high standards of living and favourable tax conditions present a strong fiscal case for investing property in Cyprus.

As well as the monetary reasons for investing, the potential reunification of the island will offer considerable investment opportunities, especially in the Turkish controlled north where property is still considerably cheaper than in the Greek controlled south. Talks are at present on-going regarding potential re-unification, and whilst they are still at an early stage, it has resulted in a keener focus on political events in Cyprus.

Already there are an increasing number of high quality projects being developed throughout the north of the island, and destinations including Catalkoy and Bogaz are already proving popular investment choices. Should re-unification be confirmed, this development process is likely to gather pace considerably, with prices in the north increasing to equal levels currently found throughout the south of the island.

With the increasingly challenging global financial climate causing investors to redefine objectives and returns, Cyprus is becoming an increasingly popular option for investors seeking a long term, more stable property investment.
