    Is the Cyprus property market bottoming out?

    I know the original post was from earlier this year but having just visited Cyprus again (my in-laws live near Kyrenia, Northern Cyprus) I have a little input into this. As per the original link, a lot of people associate the term 'Cyprus' with Greece and many don't actually know it's split...

    New property developments in the UK

    A 360 virtual tour is a great way to confirm the layout and positioning of windows, doors, radiators, etc, as well as potential views if not a new build. My main concern with these though is that is very hard to gauge the actual size of a property when using this virtual tour as more often...

    Robbie Fowler Property Academy

    I knew Robbie Fowler was in the property business, as in Michael Owen, but surprised to hear he has joined forces with Tigrent, a company who's name I have seen on multiple property related websites, and more often that not, its for a negative reason

    I don't know for definite but this is likely to be detailed within the contract you would have signed with your selling agent(s)

    How I know that property for selling is legal?

    To be honest, I'd have thought that if purchasing a property through a respected or well established estate agent, along with using a reliable solicitor / conveyancer, then you should be in safe hands and the legal side will hopefully all be investigated and be confirmed as legit before you part...

    What Points Should I Focus For Buying Property?

    Hello Navnit, Firstly, have you got a country in mind as to where you're looking to purchase? If you know then worth posting because every country has different rules, regulations, taxes, finance packages, etc. Whereas if you are undecided on what country, then again, research into the...

    Can anything derail the worldwide real estate sector?

    Not sure about Worldwide, but within the UK the recent Budget announcement regarding tax relief for the Buy To Let market is going to have a big impact on a number of people so will be interesting to see how things pan out with this proposition going forward

    Property sector again the proverbial political football

    I'm generally quite good with tax and numbers but this is still confusing me and I'm trying to work out how this will affect my income. Is there anyone who understands it all and can either explain it in simple terms or supply a link to anything that does as I'm sure I may not be the only one...

    Advice Please

    This is an awkward area and something that I have also been in a similar position with! Unfortunately, because the original agents 'introduced' you to the property, whether you were to have an offer accepted through another agent or direct with the seller, the original agents are well within...

    Wooden furniture.

    I guess it depends on what furniture you're looking at. As an example if you supply a wooden bed, table, wardrobe, etc you need furniture that is durable and will last and not that of a quality that will continually break and/or need repairs/replacing. I'd also suggest to refrain from wooden...

    Buying Next to Commercial

    A +£20k reduction in price compared to others in non-commercial areas would appear to show that this point has been addressed. Therefore, the question is why isn't it selling? The price has been addressed so can't imagine that is the biggest put-off so maybe it is down to the...

    Buying Next to Commercial

    Another question would be to ask why has it been on the market for a year? Is it that potential buyers have raised the concerns you have, ie, it may be hard to resell, will the appeal be lost if used as an investment property for potential tenants or if financial, has it just been tricky to find...

    Looking to buy property around east London, first time buyer.

    Hi Hanspal, Is the £50k to also be used to cover solicitor fees, stamp duty, mortgage fee's, etc or do you have that in a separate pot? Depending on your answer will obviously have an impact on the property you're looking at. As an example, if the £50k was ONLY for a deposit, you could look...

    Cyprus Property

    Mainly because I know a lot of people who live in Northern Cyprus, my in-laws included, and therefore I could ask around to see if anyone dealt with the company / person you've mentioned but if it were to then turn they only deal with EU countries then that will rule out Northern Cyprus so it...

    Hi there, What is your goal from investing your 80k, are you looking for immedaite income in the form of decent profit per month or are looking at it long term in the form of capital increase, or both (obviously far harder to achieve!)? Depending on your answer will give you different options...

    Could complete default on mortgage holiday ever be classed as criminal?

    Sorry, I've attempted it on Google but getting nothing conclusive, so can you please confirm what a 'CHF mortgage' is or stands for? So are you saying that despite having a mortgage 'holiday' you are now in the position where you need to start paying the mortgage but can't afford it?
