Cyprus Property is Hot! But is it Getting Too Crowded?
The recent interest in Cyprus property has initiated a housing boom on the island. It doesn't matter where you go on the island, you can often hear the sound of construction in the background. Developers are scooping up land at an alarming rate trying to keep pace with the growing demand for houses. But they can't build houses and condos quick enough.
The truth is that there are more people who want to live on Cyprus than there are houses. Pretty soon the land will be gone and so will be the opportunity to invest in this popular area. Many view this as a huge opportunity to invest in what will soon become a scarce commodity. The hope is that the demand for houses will always remain high. Once all of the land is developed, however, a shortage of houses will occur. Huge demand plus small supply equals a huge price tag.
Making money on property in an up and coming area requires skill and timing. The skill comes in when it is time to purchase a property. You must know which properties will be highly sought after and bring in the most money. Timing has to do with the time period of development in which you buy. If you purchased a Cyprus property when there was an abundance of land and just a stirring of interest, you would have had a greater margin for profit. If you buy property when land is becoming scarce, you will pay a higher price. This will dramatically decrease your potential for profit and increase the amount of time you will have to hold the property to make a profit.
As you may have already realized, you have missed out on the beginning stages of development on Cyprus, but that doesn't mean that you still can't make money by investing in Cyprus property. Development has reached a feverish pitch, but there are still some great, undeveloped properties to choose from.
There are also some great opportunities when it comes to new build properties. Developers are quite willing to sell a property for a bargain price in an unfinished state. You can purchase such a property; finish it and resale it for profit.
But is Cyprus getting too crowded? Will it lose its allure? Will people become disinterested in Cyprus because of a booming population? Cyprus is different from most hot tourist spots in that the economy is not entirely dependent on tourism. There are good jobs in Cyprus and the economy is booming. People from all over the world want to settle on Cyprus in order to make a decent living and raise a family. This means that there will be a demand for permanent housing even if the demand for holiday housing wanes.
So, is Cyprus property a good investment? While development is underway, it has not topped out by any means. There are still some great opportunities to get in on the Cyprus housing boom and make some money.
