Juridische opmerking
In North Cyprus, the Koçan is the official title deed — the document proving property ownership. Koçan type matters significantly: a full Turkish Cypriot Koçan is the most secure. Some properties are sold with exchange title deeds (from pre-1974 Greek Cypriot owners) which carry legal and political risk. Always have your lawyer confirm the Koçan type before committing to any purchase.

Veelgestelde vragen over kopen in Famagusta
What makes Famagusta different from Kyrenia?
Kyrenia is a resort and retirement market driven by tourism. Famagusta has a permanent economy based on Eastern Mediterranean University's 40,000+ students. This creates year-round rental demand and higher yields, but less resort lifestyle and fewer foreign buyer services than Kyrenia.
What rental yield can I expect near the university?
Student rental apartments near Eastern Mediterranean University achieve 8–12% gross yield. Studios (€55,000–€75,000) rented to students at €350–€500/month generate strong returns. September–June is peak occupancy; summer occupancy is lower.
Is Famagusta safe to buy property in?
Many investors have successfully purchased in Famagusta. The essential requirement is clean title deed verification with a qualified North Cyprus lawyer. Properties must not be subject to pre-1974 Greek Cypriot ownership claims. This is the same due diligence requirement as elsewhere in North Cyprus.
