Real Estate & Property in Cyprus

At LegalEdge, we offer expert legal support for real estate and property matters in Cyprus, including sales and purchases, leasing, tenancy, and dispute resolution. Our team ensures every transaction is secure, compliant, and aligned with your personal or business objectives.

LegalEdge provides expert legal support in all aspects of property transactions, disputes, and the protection of property rights across Cyprus.

We advise and represent clients in matters relating to the sale, purchase, use, and occupation of land, including boundary disputes, landlord–tenant issues, and breach of contract claims.

While we prioritise alternative dispute resolution to help clients avoid lengthy and costly litigation, our experienced legal team is fully prepared to represent you before the District Courts and the Supreme Court of Cyprus when required.

At LegalEdge, we provide comprehensive legal assistance and strategic advice on all aspects of commercial and private real estate matters.

Our team of dedicated real estate and property lawyers brings in-depth expertise across all stages of real estate transactions — from due diligence and negotiation to completion and post-acquisition support.

When representing a buyer, we strongly advise that no financial or legal commitment is made before confirming:

  • That the seller holds valid legal or equitable title to the property, and
  • That the title deed can be successfully transferred into your name

Our team will carry out all necessary Land Registry searches, enabling you to identify any potential encumbrances, mortgages, or legal claims registered against the property.

Armed with this information and guided by our legal team, you’ll be able to make an informed decision about whether the property is suitable and secure for acquisition.

In addition, we can assist with strategic introductions, deal facilitation, and cross-functional coordination. This is further enhanced by our firm’s expertise across key complementary areas such as tax, corporate and M&A, investment funds, and commercial law.

Ensuring fair, secure, and enforceable lease agreements for both landlords and tenants requires a blend of legal expertise, contractual precision, and commercial awareness. Our firm offers comprehensive legal support tailored to the unique needs of clients engaged in leasing or tenancy arrangements.
