What to Expect

Costs of selling in Cyprus

No surprises at closing. Every cost explained before you commit.

Cost itemDetails
Capital Gains Tax20% on the net gain (purchase price vs sale price). Exemptions apply for primary residences and where reinvestment is made into another property.
Legal Fees0.5–1% of the sale price. Your lawyer handles contracts, due diligence co-ordination, and Land Registry lodgement.
Agent CommissionStandard in Cyprus is 3–5% + VAT (19%). This covers full marketing, viewings, negotiation, and legal co-ordination — paid on completion.
Title Deed TransferTransfer fees are paid by the buyer in Cyprus, not the seller. As a seller, this is not your cost — but confirming clean title deeds in advance speeds up the transaction significantly.
