There is simply too many people employed by the government and too many levels of beaurocracy to plough through for the most simple of issues. However most people were aware of that before they came over. The quite open backhanders that happened have all but dried up, but at least here those...

There has been an increase in enquiries both from the resident population, who are seeking out the real bargains and from clients from Russia and that area. We are taking more appoiintments for property than before. The locals (hithertoo priced from the market ) are seeking masive discounts...

The deposit will belong to the administrator so I cant see them squeezing it back. They'll probably just create a discount against a similar overpriced project to make it look like a deposit has been paid, but keep €3000 of your spondoolies.

Steve, I hope you didnt Unsure it (I know its a spelling mistake).... The CPAG are already up n running with varying success, however the owners of the proposed projects by Liassides group have set up their own body with a UK and Nicosia Lawyer willing to take on the big boys..

Nightmare, the marina is still a long way off, there is still much leal squabblings to work through, accusation and counters etc etc etc the usual. The works you may have seen on the road at Potima bay have nothing to do with the Marina. The road was so poorly constructed that they had to...

Whether or not you have to pay it is dependant upon the content of the contract and what was spoken and what was written. Go to a solicitor from outwith Larnaca and ask the question based on the contract.

Can I ask why he doesnt want to use a dedicated land agent, who may already have buyers on the books looking for high end land?

Clacher, there has been a great deal of sense spoken so far. One thing you must try to do is divorce the emotion from the current financial predicament. Act purely on financial reasoning. You can have a dozen different agents market the property for you, so appoint as many as will take it on...

This situation is not going to go away and the sooner the Cyprus government realise it the better. In my humble opinion, a slump/recession like we are currently in is the best time to make reparations and lay the foundations and guidelines for the future.

There is so much wind and guff about this developement its becoming an embarassment for the area. In my opinion it looks like a carbunkle perched on what was a pretty hillside. The build does not inspire me, the design does not excite me and the whole project turns me off. Its my chosen...

Its plain to see whats holding them up. In obivous terms, not a lot and they may well e classed as unstable and/or dangerous. In PR terms, what, no, never, not us, of course not, what are you talking about, these things dont happen. Yes sir sign here.. I am sure the brochure clearly said...

Nonethe less its best a solicitor from the High commission panel is used if possible who is declaring no interest in any third party. Ask the questions and of not happy, pm us.

Hello Rob Mc, Its certainly not my job to come to pippins defense (big, ugly etc come to mind),however often when taking properties from 3rd parties it is difficult to keep an eye on them. Sadly trying to manage the unrealistic expectations that some clients have for their own resales is a...

Pippin, you missed out the word 'sky' from before the high.

Kismet, although I agree with much of the sentiment in your postings, I would suggest a little caution in the assumptions of developers and hands in pockets etc. Although it may (or may not) be the case, it would be a great shame for any unfounded statement to bring the forum into disrepute and...

, I hope not literally as you will have very little views. Its one of the few complexes we have not recommended to anyone. It is also so remote that any holidaymaker is going to feel and be very exposed in the middle of nowhere, yes some people like solace and peace on a holiday, however 7...

Good post Cornholio, but sadly these regs will take a long time to take hold, and the squirming worms that cheat, and con their way to our wallets will continue to "distribute" in the same and even more underhand ways. We have just been down the harbour and were approached no less than 6...

Sadly the whole marketing process these people use is very persuasive and forceful. Ive known of people who have said, "I wont get taken in." "I'll jus go & force them to give me a freebie". And sadly they end up signing documentation. The canvassing of these schemem should be...

Sisie, Nigels advice is spot on, and the 18 month estimate is unreasonable and unachievable in Cyprus. Many complexes will never have deeds issued for a couple of reasons. Firstly re your solicitor, check his impartiality and distance from the other parties involved. Use the High Commission...
