What does a property management company in Cyprus do?
It takes the day-to-day running of a property off the owner. That covers finding and checking tenants, drawing up and registering the contract, collecting rent, arranging repairs, paying utility and municipality bills, handling common expenses, and reporting all of it back to you in writing every month.

How much do property management services cost in Cyprus?
It depends on the property and on how much you hand over. Rental-only work is normally charged as a percentage of the monthly rent. Care and maintenance is usually a fixed monthly fee. Full management is agreed case by case. We quote in writing after we have seen the property and understood how you use it, never before that.
-
Can you manage my property if I live abroad?
Yes, and most of our clients do. Distance is the reason the service exists. You get scheduled inspections with photographs, a named manager who answers in your own language, and a monthly statement, so you can see the condition of the place and the numbers behind it without booking a flight to check for yourself.
-
Who pays for repairs – the owner or the tenant?
As a rule the owner pays for repairs to the structure and the fixed installations, and the tenant pays for damage they caused and for small consumables. The rental agreement should say so in plain terms rather than leaving it to argument later, which is why we put the split in writing and photograph the condition at check-in.
-
What are common expenses and who collects them?
They are the shared running costs of a block: cleaning, lighting, lifts, the pool, insurance and the reserve fund. The building management committee sets and collects them from each owner. Where we manage your unit we pay them on your behalf, keep every receipt, and show them all in your monthly statement.
-
Can I stop the service if I am not happy?
Yes. The agreement sets a notice period, and once it has run you owe nothing further. We hand back the keys, the inventory, the tenant file and any money we hold for you. Nobody should stay with a manager only because leaving is difficult, and a contract written to make leaving hard is a warning sign worth spotting early.
-
Do you also manage short-term and holiday rentals?
Yes. Short lets need different work: listing and photographs, pricing that changes with the season, guest check-in, and cleaning between stays. It earns more in a good summer and it demands a great deal more attention through the season, so we always quote short lets separately from a long-term tenancy.
