Apart from the beautiful unspoilt countryside, the dramatic coastline, glorious beaches and the rich historical heritage there are also very good economic reasons for buying property in North Cyprus for all ages and types of property investor.

1. Northern Cyprus: a stress-free home from home.
With the hectic pace of city life it’s refreshing to find a country where crime levels are low, vandalism is virtually unknown, and air pollution simply not an issue. Kids will love the outdoor life of sun, sea and sand, and Turkish Cypriots love children in return.

2. No visa required to enter the country. Tourist visa is usually given for 1 month.  

3. North Cyprus: great value for money.
A simple visit to a village market shows you just how much more you get for your money in North Cyprus. Since the country grows so much of its own produce you can buy vegetables and fruit fresh from the fields for the equivalent of just a few UK pence.

4. North Cyprus sunshine: not just for sunbathing
Did we mention the 300+ days of sunshine in North Cyprus? No wonder most North Cyprus homes have solar panels, which not only heat their water but also provide electricity to power the home. On average all utility bills on a moderate sized property will be less than £100 – per month.

5. The holiday property in Northern Cyprus
For a year-round destination with maximum appeal, friendly locals, great beaches, fabulous water sports and a stunning new golf course, North Cyprus is fast becoming a holiday hotspot in the Mediterranean.

The only North Cyprus property title that you should consider and indeed the only property title you should be offered is a Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) freehold. This title comes in four formats.

1. Pre 1974 Turkish Freehold Title
This is the title for land or property owned by a Turkish Cypriot before 1974.

2. Pre 1974 Foreign Freehold Title
This is the title for land or property owned by a foreign national (i.e. non Turkish Cypriot) before 1974. These titles are recognized internationally.

3. TRNC Exchange Title
This is the title for land or property given to a Turkish Cypriot in exchange for land and property they owned in south Cyprus before 1974, and which they were forced to leave behind on moving to the North. The government assessed the value of both land and goods left behind, and allocated the land or property in the North in exchange for the waiving of the rights to their land in the south. The original pre-1974 owner of the land or property would have been Greek Cypriot. This is also known as the Esdeger (pronounced Esh-day-air).

4. TRNC TMD Title
This is the title for land given to Turkish Cypriots for military or government service or to Turkish settlers to encourage economic growth in certain parts of the North after 1974. As with the Esdeger the original pre-1974 owner of the land or property would have been Greek Cypriot who abandoned the land or property after 1974.
