Holiday Villas In Cyprus

by William Marind

Development of land into villas in estates is now very common in the Paphos area, mainly on the hills between Paphos and Polis. Projects are developed to take the form of villages with the individual villas designed in traditional architecture. There are, of course, cases where the purchaser may have a good state in the design of his villa. The same type of projects are now being carried out in Limassol and to a lesser extent in the Larnaca area.

Solar heating is an economic alternative and its adoption is relatively affordable, having a payback period of approximately 5 years.If you’ll have a garden, it is advisable to drill a borehole for watering as the water charges rise more than proportionately with consumption. This will cost around C1,200 for the borehole and the pump, although it will depend on the depth of the borehole. The drilling of a borehole requires a Government permit first.

As an indication, one should have in mind that the average construction cost for a home is between C160 to C200 per square metre and the purchase cost of building sites offered for this purpose could range from C1 to C2 per square foot in resort areas, whereas in the towns this can reach C5 per sq. f t.Credit terms on villa/building site/land/cottage acquisitions are normally made and the generally acceptable payment terms are 50% on signing and the rest over a period of 1-2 years (at 9% interest on the reducing balance).

Going through a company like Headlands has several advantages: you’ll get to see a wide range of properties in Cyprus that suit your requirements;you have the benefit of our many years experience, as well as a fully staffed office to support you in the UK; it will eliminate any possible misunderstandings ;it helps takes away the stress and strain associated with house purchasing in Cyprus.

The contract in then longed with the Land Registry within two months if being signed which will prevent the vendor from selling the property on a second time, and will be a charge on the property pending completion.Application is made at the Central Bank at this time for the necessary permit for the transfer of purchase money. This application isn’t necessary if both the purchaser and the vendors are foreigners.The transfer of the title deed is then finished, the full price is then paid and vacant possession is given by the vendor.
