Commercial Property in Nicosia: Investment Attractiveness

Nicosia is unique because it is the only two-state capital in the world. It is unusual even within Cyprus because it is the only city on the island that has no access to the sea. In the capital, the most significant number of people live, the business environment is developed, there are offices of many international companies, and on holidays there are a variety of festivals and concerts. Every year commercial real estate in Nicosia is developing increasingly. There are tower buildings, business centers, co-working houses, and hubs. Investments in real estate in Cyprus are profitable and bring an average of 8% to 15% per annum.


Why is Nicosia attractive for doing business and buying real estate?

Nicosia is the first business center in the country. The second is the city of Limassol, whose population is only slightly smaller than the capital's. Major deals, signing contracts, meeting opinion leaders, diplomatic missions, political conferences, and visiting the world's pop stars — all this takes place in Nicosia.

First, buying commercial real estate in Nicosia is attractive because every year, Cyprus turns from a tourist mecca into a business hub, attracting giant companies and entrepreneurs worldwide.

Every year about 1000 new companies are registered on the island, some of which are relocated from other countries and have moved their business to Cyprus to optimize taxation and create a safety cushion for their business.

Since most relocating companies bring their staff to the island, this generates a high demand for commercial real estate in Nicosia and apartments and houses for rent in Cyprus near the city.

Nicosia is a significant commercial and industrial center. The region produces fabric, textiles, leather and ceramics, plastics, perfumes, and food industries. Also, most of the universities are located in the capital, among them the European University of Cyprus, the University of Nicosia, the University of Cyprus, and many others.

Also, actively developing real estate. For 2021, in Nicosia, were actively concluded transactions for the purchase and sale of real estate, thanks to which the capital has increased by 32%.

First, the business interests in commercial properties: offices, restaurants, and stores.

Buying commercial real estate in Nicosia has the following advantages:

  • low taxes for businesses (12.5% corporate tax, no tax on dividends, profits from abroad, shares, benefits on several other taxes);
  • purchase of profitable real estate due to stable growth of rental prices for 3 years in a row;
  • IT companies covered by the IP Box program can be taxed at a rate of only 2.5%;
