After sale service and property management in order to maximize rental income and reduce operating & maintenance costs Why Invest in Cyprus • • Are there real estate investment opportunities in Cyprus? Is now the right time to invest? Since 2008 the Cyprus economy in general and its real estate sector in particular have been facing challenges as a result of multiple waves of crisis, starting with the global financial meltdown in 2008 and followed by the European periphery sovereign debt crisis in 2010-12 and more recently the Cyprus banking sector restructuring in 2013. These events have led to steep adjustments in real estate prices in some cases significantly over 50%. This has created unprecedented buy opportunities. Why Invest in Cyprus Despite the recent difficulties, the country retains certain unique features which ensure that in the medium term and long term, Cyprus real estate has strong growth prospects: • Ideally located on the crossroad between 3 continents; Europe, Africa and Asia • Beautiful scenery with c. 350 days of sunshine and a mild climate • Friendly population and interesting culture with virtually no crime • European Union and commonwealth membership • Low corporation tax (12.5%) and network of double tax treaties incl. China and Russia • English Law based legal system offering transparency and certainty • Land registry providing a safe and simple regime for protecting and transferring title • High level of education and services. Ninety percent of Cypriots speak English • Excellent infrastructure and telecommunications • Tourism facilities continues to improve such as recent opening of Limassol mega-yacht marina with plans for a similar project in Paphos and 5 golf courses • Advanced medical care - prospects of becoming a healthcare and centre WinWin Estates (www.winwinestates.net) • Cyprus company founded in 2007 with a real estate brokerage license • Main principals of the company have more than 80 years of combined experience in real estate development, finance, property valuation and sales & marketing • WinWin Estates Ltd provides the following services: – Identifying compelling investment opportunities and advising investors in all stages of the investment process – Real estate brokerage services – Assistance in obtaining Cyprus Residence or Passport – Property valuation services – Support with legal, tax, structuring, financing and administration in executing and asset managing an investment • The company’s philosophy is to assist investors and property buyers in making secure property acquisitions with high quality specifications and competitive market pricing Immigration Cyprus Residency and Citizenship via Investing • • • • • The immigration laws of the Republic of Cyprus provide investors an inimitable opportunity to invest in Cyprus economy and gain Permanent Residence (investment of €300K) or Citizenship (investment of €2.5m). There is high demand from nationals of mostly non-EU countries to obtain a Cyprus Permanent Residence visa in order to enjoy certain privileges relating to their stay in Cyprus and/or their movement within the European Union or a Cyprus passport which grants its holder the full benefits of a European citizen. New Accelerated Procedure for Permanent Residency A new and accelerated procedure for granting Immigration Permits according to the provisions of Regulation 6(2) of the Aliens and Immigration Regulations has been introduced by the Minister of Interior for applicants that are third country nationals and invest in the Republic of Cyprus. It is estimated that the application will be examined in no longer than two months from the date that the application is submitted. Any third country national that has applied for an Immigration Permit under Category F can submit additional documents in order to have their application examined according to the provisions of Regulation 6 (2) of the Aliens and Immigration Regulations on a much faster basis. The application will be examined on a fast track basis by the Civil Registry and Migration Department and will be submitted immediately to the Minister of Interior for a decision.
