A survey on any resale property is strongly recommended, just as it would be in the UK or elsewhere. Our Cypriot team or your lawyer will be able to recommend a surveyor to you. He will inspect the property and prepare a report, eventually showing any defects, which would not be visible to everyone’s eyes. It will save you unpleasant surprises at a later stage, and depending on the type of defects stated (if any), you may get a reduction on the price or you maybe in a position to request the vendor to repair them, or insist additional guarantees be inserted in the contracts. One thing is for sure; you will know what you are buying. A surveyor will not allow his love for a property to cloud his judgement as you may have done.
