Inside Cyprus
You may have heard of “Buy to Let” quite a lot recently on the financial section of Sky news and be wondering what this really means. Well it’s not too complicated as it implies, you buy a property and then you let it out. The only trick in order to do this successfully is to let the property out for more than your monthly mortgage payment.
One thing to bear in mind when venturing on a property investment like this is the total month duration times of the high and low seasons. In Northern Cyprus for example, the low season lasts just five months and the high season stretches over seven months. To put the icing on the cake, there are over 300 sunny days a year, allowing thousands of travel makers the luxury of all year round holidays in places like Northern Cyprus.
To make things totally clear I am going to give you a real working example from start to beginning in order to explain just how you can reap the benefits from a “Buy to Let” property investment in Northern Cyprus. A rental villa in Northern Cyprus will cost about 250.000 Euro, so in order to start the reservation possess you will need to pay 3000 Euro. After that you will still have to pay 25% of the total amount, so including the initial holding fee, you will then have to pay a second amount of 72.000 and the rest on signing the property deeds.
With the deposit out of the way we just have to deal with the 175.000 Euro balance, which we are going to finance. Have a good look at all of the different mortgage options but I would recommend a interest only mortgage, as this way your monthly payments are lower. We will take the best rate in current conditions then the resulting monthly payments work out at about 800 Euro, that being 9.600 per year.
There are figures available in Northern Cyprus that show that a rental villa has an average rental activity for 10 months of the year. For a 250.000 Euro villa in Northern Cyprus you can expect an average of 2.600 Euro per month in the high season and about 1.500 Euro in the low season.
To best thing to do now is get out you calculator and start to work out just how much rental income can be generated from a villa in Northern Cyprus. With an average 6 month high season and 4 month low season rental income you would total up a staggering 21.600 Euro annual gross profit. To see what is exactly left in your pocket, you just deduct the 9.600 Euro mortgage payments and about 1.000 Euro fees in property management. My calculator now shows 11.000 Euro of net profit in rental income for a “Buy to Let” villa in Northern Cyprus. Sounds interesting?
