Northern Cyprus having been off the international map for 30 years has returned to the fore-front of smart investor minds since the U N’s attempt to re-unify the island on May 1st 2004. Despite the fact that re-unification attempts failed to unite the island Northern Cyprus hit the press and people started to realize there was a whole different side to Aphrodite’s island. The southern part of Cyprus is far better known by British holiday makers and investors but is often criticized for having become over commercialized and very expensive.

Most people who are not in the property market don’t understand what the term “Buy to Let” means. Well it’s simple you buy the property and everything has been completed you rent to it out to anyone who wants to stay in your property. The main thing you have to think about when you’re doing this is make sure your rent covers your mortgage payments.

Due to historical tensions between Greece and Turkey, Cyprus became a divided island and the northern part has been virtually cut of from the western world for the last few decades. On the other hand the southern part of the island has been virtually conquered by the British tourist industry leading to its over commercialization and higher prices. Due to recent talks over the separation of the island, there seems to be a feeling by all sides involved that the island will soon lose its border crossing. This would really open up the north and there is already a lot of property investment movement there and all the signs indicate that the time is right to invest in Northern Cyprus.
