Why to invest in North Cyprus?
Investing in real estate in Northern Cyprus offers investors a unique opportunity to invest in property along the Mediterranean coast at relatively low prices and generate a significant return on investment. Property prices in Northern Cyprus are much lower compared to the southern part of the island. Thousands of citizens from the UK, Sweden, Germany, the former USSR, Israel, and other countries come here to acquire a second home or relocate and connect their lives specifically with the northern part of the island. Personal safety, excellent education, a warm climate, the Mediterranean Sea, endless beaches, and numerous other factors influence people from around the world to visit Cyprus and invest their money in local real estate.
No other European country currently offers such diverse investment opportunities. The type of property doesn’t matter, whether it’s a studio, a two or three-bedroom apartment, or a villa. In most cases, these properties are located by the sea within complexes that offer full infrastructure and services.
Furthermore, the initial amount of funds available is not a significant factor since most developers offer interest-free installments for several years without involving local banks.
It is important to note the stable price growth observed over the past few years. For example, the difference between completed and under-construction properties averages around 30%.
Therefore, it is always advisable to review construction projects at the construction stage.

The payment terms for investing in real estate in Northern Cyprus can vary depending on the specific project and developer. In general, here are some typical payment conditions:
- When purchasing property at the early stages of construction or before construction begins, prices are usually 25-30% lower compared to completed properties.
- Developers offer the possibility of installment payments over a period of 36-48 months, and sometimes even up to 60-72 months. This allows you to spread the payments over a longer period of time.
- Installment plans are typically interest-free and not tied to any specific bank. The agreed-upon price at the time of purchase remains unchanged throughout the payment period.
- Payments can be made monthly using credit cards, bank transfers, or cryptocurrency.
- Alternative payment conditions may be offered for clients who prefer different payment arrangements.
Usually, payments are made in stages according to the progress of construction. For example, typical payment stages may include:
- 30% initial down payment upon signing the contract.
- 25% upon completion of foundation works.
- 25% upon completion of the chosen floor’s construction.
- 25% upon completion of finishing works, including flooring, bathrooms, and kitchen.
- 10% upon receiving the keys.
It’s important to note that these conditions may vary depending on the project and developer, so it’s recommended to consult with the specific developer or real estate agent to obtain detailed information about the payment terms for a particular property.

Developers in Northern Cyprus offer various types of properties for potential investors, including villas with stunning sea views and private land, apartments with private parking, and commercial properties such as hotels and guesthouses. Due to the large number of tourists visiting the region annually, there is a constant demand for rental properties, allowing you to ensure a steady and stable income stream.
In addition to stable income, investing in rental properties in Northern Cyprus can also diversify your investment portfolio and provide competitive returns on investment (ROI).

The annual rental income from properties can reach 5-8%, depending on the chosen project, property management company, investments in social media advertising, and other factors. Periodically, developers offer guaranteed rental income for up to 3 years or cash-back on the invested amount even before the property is completed, and sometimes both.
