Residential Purchase
End-to-end support for buying a home in Cyprus, from reservation to Land Registry filing.
Typical appointment: 60 min
The sale agreement is the document that protects you, and the version handed to buyers is usually the seller's. Payment schedules tied to vague milestones, delivery dates with no consequence attached, defect periods that expire before defects appear — all standard, all negotiable.
We review or draft the agreement, negotiate the terms that matter, and file it at the Land Registry so your position is protected until the title transfers.
