Title Deeds

There are different types of title deeds in the T.R.N.C. (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus), which are as follows:

Pre-74, British or foreign owned before 1974.

Turkish Title deeds, Turkish owned, before 1974

Post 74 Turkish Cypriot Ownership (T.R.N.C. title deed): Given to Turkish Cypriot in compensation, for land left in South Cyprus (exchange land, property known as Esdeger) or awarded to Turkish Cypriots by the Northern Cyprus government. Based on the 1983 T.R.N.C. Constitution, all the deeds rectified and named as T.R.N.C. deeds are freely transferable to foreigners.

Freehold: when buying property of any kind, there are specific regulations to be followed, for the title deed (or “kocan”, in Turkish) to be transferred into the purchaser’s name. Let Stringer Estates guide you through the maze of bureaucratic paper work and regulations. We can say that we have done that, and been there, so let our experience, make your experience as pleasant as it can be.

Leasehold properties in North Cyprus are owned by the T.R.N.C. government which will grant long term leases of up to 49 years. Again it is useful to have some one walk you through the process of finding out what you get, and what responsibilities you will have as property owner.
