According to the relevant legislation, the Cyprus Land Development Organisation acquires land which separates into plots or allocates for the construction of residences and apartments. These constructions are available to individuals or families who are unable to solve their housing problem on their own.

 

The Organisation is working on housing projects throughout Cyprus. Plot separation is mainly available in rural areas where there is a need for accommodating young couples.

The income criteria have been recently reviewed by the decision of the Cabinet dated 21/07/2010.

Other Criteria

For the assessment of the applications received, other criteria other than the annual gross income, are taken into consideration by the Cyprus Land Development Organisation such as movable and immovable property, housing conditions etc. EU citizens are also entitled to apply as well as permanent residents of the Republic provided that they have a continuous legal residence in Cyprus for five (5) years.

 

According to the recent Cabinet decision dated 02/05/2012 the following provision has been added to the Scheme:

 

“The Cyprus Land Development Organisation is entitled to offer residences for sale to applicants who do not own any other residence or sizable assets (exceeding €500.000) and whose income exceeds the limits set out by the Housing Scheme for Medium-Income Individuals/Households. This provision shall become enforceable once all applications submitted by individuals/households who meet the income criteria have been reviewed and provided that there are still housing units available for sale. This provision shall remain in effect until all housing units available at the time of this decision have been sold”.

 

The Cabinet made the above decision with 320 units available for sale.

 

In August 2018, still remain ___ housing units available for sale.

 

 

Advantages

The benefits that the Cyprus Land Development Organisation offers to its customers are significant. More specifically the Organization is in a position to offer:

 

 

Low Prices

The main objective of the Organisation is the implementation of part of the governmental social policy through housing schemes. It offers residences, apartments and plots of land in low prices to accommodate the social groups it was designed to assist when founded.
