Happy 2014 For Cyprus, 2013 has been a memorable year. Much has been said about the calamity that descended upon us as we have endured the economic crisis, banking crisis and finally the bailout. All of us are ready for a change and, thankfully, the expectations for 2014 look very positive. The national awakening to foster change and determination to succeed involved a good dose of self­analysis. Much needed air of accountability and openness is setting in across the island. Re­adjustment in attitudes and the re­evaluation of business practices have all been on the agenda and best of all, our learned elite in government and economic circles have embraced innovative remedies with considerable urgency. Cyprus’s key lenders have firmly focused on the restructuring of loans as per the Central Bank (2013) Directives and play an active role in offering lower interest rates on loans and overdrafts. The Cyprus Bank self analysis on the accumulation of toxic debt mentions being ‘ swayed by the climate of prevailing economic euphoria’.... brings some comic relief only to form a basis for some serious bank restructuring. On the last day of November Cyprus was greeted by the Standard and Poor’s upgrade in its long­term sovereign debt rating to B­ from the lowly CCC+! It is a milestone which Cyprus waited three years to achieve amidst stringent analysis of the Cyprus economy, the completion of the first two Troika’s programmes and the decisive policies of the government. The next criteria is to achieve the privatisation objectives, an issue not palatable in some circles, however, most of the citizens are very keen to shed, for example, the dubious title of payers of the highest electricity bills in Europe. Cyprus Louis Group operating a number of local hotels and cruise ships recorded a turnover of €172.7 million from €165.4 last year which is indicative of a healthy tourism industry. Paphos with its pristine coastline, great beaches and huge number of the historical sites, a lot of these UNESCO sites, is a natural magnet for tourists. The opening of the brand new Kings Avenue shopping mall on the corner of the Apostolos Pavlos and the Tombs of the Kings Avenue in Kato Paphos (110 mil. investment) is another bright light for tourists and locals alike. Restaurants, great shops, supermarket, cinema, etc, etc ­­ its a constant buzz of activity and for Paphos, a grand finish to the year and a promise for Bright and Happy New Year.


Have a Memorable Christmas Christmas is a time when giving, sharing, receiving is around us. It is a time of good cheer, deep reflection and new resolutions. Every now and then the ‘Yule Tide’ brings something special and it marks a new beginning. For those looking at Cyprus to invest in property this is the time for that strategic move to grab yourself a property/home worthy of celebrations. A special selection from our bargain villas (price tag from 125 to 129 thousand euros), all gift wrapped, for your Christmas tree! Each property has the Title Deeds and all the details are on our website. Just let us know when you would like to view.
