Buying property in Cyprus is one of the biggest financial decisions most people will ever make.

In this video, we explain the most common legal risks buyers face when purchasing property in Cyprus, how proper legal due diligence works, and the practical steps that can help protect your investment before you sign or pay anything.

At Philippou Law Firm, we advise local and international clients throughout every stage of the property purchase process, including legal due diligence, contract drafting and negotiation, VAT and cost planning, title deed transfers, immigration-related property purchases and ongoing legal support.
