North Cyprus - The Property Investor’s Paradise
An island rich in ancient history and with almost unparalleled beauty, Cyprus has long proven popular with holidaymakers from around the world. Averaging more than 300 days of sunshine each year, and offering a number of superb beaches scattered along its coastline, it is easy to see why so many people have fallen in love with Cyprus.
Prominent holiday home investment markets such as North Cyprus produce high return benefits of approximately 4-5% per year for the coming ten years. This sort of revenue returns are set to stay for the foreseeable future, meaning North Cyprus will retain a stable economy and growth will continue in positive territory.
Although Cyprus has been popular with holiday home investors for quite a few years now, the rise in developments on the island has also increased, keeping up with the high demand. There a whole range of deciding factors that have made all of this possible including favourable tax conditions, a high standard of living and a very healthy tourist industry. Today’s property investors are not just seeing Cyprus as favourable choice, but also as one of Europe’s top property investment region
Apart from an increase in North Cyprus as a leading tourist resort, there are also other factors that in recent times have lead to more favourable holiday home investment opportunities. Without a doubt the membership of Cyprus into the European Union has resulted in an increase in trade with it’s European partners, a thriving economy, a higher standing of living, lower taxation and a better legal system have all played their part in promoting holiday home investments within North 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 global financial crisis on the table, property investors have difficult decisions to make regarding financial objectives, but North Cyprus is definitely a holiday home investors paradise.
