Answer this Question

If you have not spent a lot of time in Cyprus, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...

"We at first purchased a penthouse and enjoyed the life. Later we sold up and since then have always rented. It is a very easy process to purchase property and the developers guide you all the way through the process. It is advisable to have a good independant Lawyer/Soliciter," said a member in Polis, Cyprus.

"Buying a home in Cyprus can be a great investment, as the country has a strong economy and a growing real estate market. However, it is important to consider the costs associated with buying a home, such as the cost of the property, legal fees, and taxes. Additionally, it is important to consider the long-term costs of owning a home, such as maintenance and repairs. Renting a home in Cyprus can be a more cost-effective option, as it eliminates the need to pay for a down payment and other associated costs. Additionally, renting a home can provide more flexibility, as it allows you to move to a different location if needed. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Cyprus should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," remarked another expat who made the move to Cyprus.
