We have a 2 bed end of block penthouse for sale. We were one of the first to purchase on the site off plan therefore this apartment has probably the best unobstructed panoramic views on the site of mountains/sea. It is next to the ravine so nothing can be built in front. It has a great private terrace, plus large roof terrace. It is type C design which can viewed on Seaterra website http://www.cyprus-seaterra.com The site is due to be completed in Oct 2008 and Seaterra have so far finished their developments on time. The apartment has been fully tiled. Wardrobes/kitchen/bathroom are fitted in neutral colours.



We inspected the site yesterday and were very impressed with the quality of workmanship and how good the site looked.



This is a gated complex of 200 apts with two outdoor pools, one indoor pool, gym, market, childrens playground. It is built in a conservation green area so this surrounding forest is protected from future development. Situated a short drive from the new 18 hole golf course.



Contact us for further details/photos.

Under current legislation, you will need to sell this via a licensed Estate Agent!

Bowman,



I'm afraid that what you say is not entirely the case, the following are answers to the question of whether or not you can carry out a private sale, this was taken from another North Cyprus Forum.



According to the new law all sales have to go through an estate agent, except

a) Sales between relatives to first degree can do it without an estate agent.

b) Private individuals may do so with the permission of the Ministry. I am going to enquire today about this: Will it be a simple matter of filling in a form and obtaining permission within a few days or will it be cumbersome? I hope to come back to this with more information today.



I have just phoned up the chief of Famagusta Land Registry and he assured me that they have the authority to approve private sales without an Estae Agent and he is readily giving this permission without any fuss. The Estate Agents have to cahrge a minimum of 3% according to the new law and the sky is the upper limit. It is a free country and you can shop around. The important thing is that private individuals can sell privately without employing any Estate Agent.

Hi Lavendar Girl, we are due to come out to Seaterra for an inspection trip between 1st and 4th April. What are you selling your penthouse for and how much is it? We were looking at Penthouse 'C's as a preferred buy. Thanks.

Anyone know how to register property without having to pay £350.00 to solicitor. Is it possible to do it yourself?

Hi,

We are thinking of selling our property to a friend of the family.

Does anyone how we go about this.

With all the new laws we really dont know where to begin.

We dont have title to the property its going through the processs at the moment.

What happens about the vat and transfer fee? will the new owner have to pay this ?

Any feed back much appreciated

Regards

Hello, we looked at sea-terra sites two years and were almost on the point of signing when a person from unwins approached us to go with them and talked about the sea-terra developments too far out to the east , no good for links with buses / taxis etc.....

We went with Unwins chose a site, paid a grand, then another twelve grand. two and a half years later we have absolutly s*d all to show for it.

My advise to anyone is go with your eyes VERY wide open and to be perfectly honest i would advise anyone to purchase a ready built with title deeds and all relevant eletricity/mains connections done beforehand.

I now look at the sea-terra and turtlebay developments with a bit of sadness wishing i went their way, but all said and done when we all go out to buy something new for ourselves we dive in before looking hard at what's all on offer.

Northern Cyprus is a wonderfull place and really does have something unique from most other med resorts, it's just a case we're all terrified we miss out on the last possible fast buck when it comes to buying our "Sunshine pad" as they say.

Best of luck all the same and i'm sure you will find something suitable.



Cheers

Hi Finchy

We have decided to wait until the whole site is finished before selling it. The apartment is finished and site due to be completed in Oct although Seaterra say they are hoping to get it finished before that. It is available now for viewing if you wish or I can send you some photos if you want



Thanks

When buying on an estate, be careful and read how the maintenance charges are worked out, they haven't quite figured that out yet, pool, grounds,gardeners, painting etc. etc..
