Frequently Asked Questions
As a foreigner, can I buy a house in the North Cyprus?
Yes. Foreign nationals can purchase property in Northern Cyprus. The purchase process is registered with the state and the purchase is secured under the English legal system.
How do title deed transactions and property transfer work?
After the sales contract is signed, the contract is approved by the tax office and registered in your name by placing a lien on the title deed. The entire process is followed step by step by The Golden Nest Co. consultants.
Do I need to get a residence permit?
No. You do not need a residence permit to invest in real estate in the North Cyprus. However, if you wish, you can apply for a long-term residence permit after the title deed.
How do payment plans work? Is the down payment sufficient?
In projects, contracts are usually signed with a 35% down payment. The remaining amount can be completed with flexible payment plans during the project and within 1 year after delivery. Interest is not applied or is at a very low level.
When does rental income start and how is it received?
After delivery, your property is ready to be rented. It can be rented for short term (tourist) or long term (student, employee). The Golden Nest Co. can also manage this process on your behalf.
Why are projects in North Cyprus appreciating so quickly?
North Cyprus has grown by nearly 800% in the last 5 years. Due to low starting prices, international demand, the European Union candidacy process and limited land supply, projects are gaining value in a very short time.

We offer you one-on-one support in all processes such as project selection, legal consultancy, payment plan preparation, title deed tracking, lease management and post-investment support. You are not alone throughout the investment.
Are the prices fixed? Will I be affected by exchange rate fluctuations?
Prices are fixed in pounds sterling (GBP). You will not be affected by TL-based fluctuations. In this way, your money gains value against foreign currency and your investment increases steadily.
Are there any additional costs when purchasing a property?
There are some legal and technical costs that are not included in the purchase price. These are transparently as follows:
- 5% VAT: Usually paid within 1 year after the signing of the title deed transfer document.
- 3% Title Deed Transfer Fee: Collected for the registration of the ownership of the land where the apartment you purchased is located.
- Transformer and Infrastructure Connection Fee: Varies between £1,000 – £3,000, may vary depending on the project developer.
- Stamp Duty: A state tax of 0.5% of the property value + £40 at the time of registration of the purchase contract.
