North Cyprus Stats & Facts
The climate is described as “intense Mediterranean” – this means that, in general, the island enjoys short mild and temperate winters and very long hot summers. The main economy drivers in North Cyprus are tourism, construction and education. The country has a population of approx. 400,000 (last census 2011). The main currency is the Turkish Lira, however, GBP Sterling, US Dollars and Euros are all accepted forms of currency. Ercan International Airport in the north flies via Turkey to many worldwide destinations, with Larnaca International Airport located in the south.

Our Clients Kensington understands that everyone has their own thoughts and ideas when looking to buy a property here in North Cyprus. With clients looking to just relax and kick back for their holidays, or those wanting a return on their investment, whether through capital growth or rental income, and those whose ideal is to eventually retire and relocate to their home in the Mediterranean, everyone has their reasons and aspirations for why and what they purchase.
Retirement Home / Capital Growth Investment From studio, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom properties at our larger resorts, where everything is catered for, to smaller, more private 1-2 bedroom developments with shared pools, to 3,4,5,6 and 8 bedroom villas with private pools and landscaped gardens, buyers must think and choose carefully about the medium to long term goals they wish to achieve.
Holiday Home / Relocation Home / Rental Income Property Our expert multi-lingual sales staff will quickly understand our clients' preferences and will only show properties that meet the clients criteria, in a non-pressured environment. Our clients are free to discuss their specific desires and to take their time with any decision making they may need to do.
Whether looking for a lock and leave property at our resorts or developments, which can be left in the capable hands of one of our management companies, or a large individual luxury private family villa in a peaceful residential location, Kensington has a home for everyone.

Buying Process Is North Cyprus a sure property investment? We certainly think so! The property market in Northern Cyprus has seen a steady increase in attention since the early 2000’s, with British, Scandinavian, Russian and other European buyers choosing North Cyprus for its fantastic potential. Properties are affordable in comparison to other Mediterranean destinations, which makes it very appealing for buyers looking to invest. The increased interest in North Cyprus property is reflected by the number of foreign investors visiting the country, and an ongoing rise in sales figures. With a small population, you can rest assured that North Cyprus is a relatively crime free location. To many, it offers a safe haven away from the hectic and often chaotic life they may lead in their own, perhaps over-populated countries. Many investors are attracted to Northern Cyprus because of the wide choice of affordable properties in prime locations. Combined with the beauty of the northern side of the island, people quickly realise that they could very easily feel at home within the friendly local and international community.
Buying a property in North Cyprus is not a complicated process, however, it is certainly worth knowing and understanding the process and requirements. Feel free to download our guide below.
