Invest from Anywhere: The Rise of Remote Real Estate in Cyprus

1 July 2025

Discover a Smarter, More Accessible Way to Invest

The global real estate market is changing fast - and so are investor expectations. With digital tools replacing in-person paperwork and international buyers seeking simplicity, remote property investment has gone from niche to normal.

Cyprus is uniquely positioned in this shift. Offering EU residency pathways, attractive tax incentives, and a booming rental market, the island has become a strategic hotspot for international investors. But making a property purchase from abroad still requires confidence, clarity, and the right support system.

That’s where Square One delivers real value.

Remotely Buying, Personally Supported

Since 2017, Square One has developed over 10,000+ sqm of residential space and facilitated €100M+ in property transactions. Many of our investors complete the entire process without ever setting foot in Cyprus.

Our remote-friendly structure includes:

  • Dedicated account managers for personalised guidance
  • Virtual tours and video walkthroughs of available properties
  • Secure document handling and legal coordination
  • Ongoing project updates to keep you fully informed

Off-Plan with Full Transparency

Most of Square One’s developments are sold off‑plan, giving investors early access to favourable pricing and maximum capital appreciation before completion. But buying from overseas means visibility is key—and that’s exactly what we deliver.

Our team provides consistent, transparent updates throughout every stage—from contract signing through construction to key handover. That’s how off‑plan investing should work: confidently and clearly, no matter where you are.

A prime example is HARLIR Suites in Limassol’s historic Old Town. This boutique development includes three studios and three one-bedroom apartments, all finished to high standards with an A+ energy efficiency rating. Its location is one of its biggest assets—just 100 metres from key amenities, 700 metres from the beach, and only 150 metres from public transport, offering excellent walkability and tenant appeal.

Because it’s off‑plan, investors lock in early, benefit from completion-stage pricing, and gain full insight into progress through regular reporting and milestone alerts—accessible from anywhere in the world.

Rental-Ready with Guaranteed Returns

One of the biggest advantages of investing with Square One—especially from abroad—is knowing your property won’t sit empty. Every apartment is designed and delivered rental-ready, meaning you don’t need to worry about furnishing, listing, or managing it.

Through our exclusive partnership with Moving Doors (MODO), your property becomes an income-generating asset the moment it's delivered.

What Makes MODO Different?

MODO is more than a traditional property manager—it's a tech-enabled rental platform designed for modern tenants and global investors. Here's what sets it apart:

  • Fully Managed Experience: From check-ins to maintenance, everything is handled professionally. You don’t need to deal with tenants directly or be physically present in Cyprus.
  • Flexible Leasing Models: MODO accommodates short-, mid-, and long-term stays, allowing your unit to adapt to market demand and maximise occupancy throughout the year.
  • Stylishly Furnished Units: All apartments are delivered move-in ready, fully equipped and tastefully designed to enhance tenant satisfaction and reduce vacancy time.
  • Digital Convenience: Tenants book online, sign digitally, and communicate through automated systems—streamlining the experience while keeping everything transparent for owners.

Guaranteed Returns That Reduce Risk

To offer peace of mind to remote investors, Square One offers a guaranteed rental return of 7% per year for the first 3 years on eligible properties. This means:

  • Predictable cash flow from day one
  • Lower investment risk, especially during the lease-up phase
  • No need to manage tenant acquisition or rental pricing strategies

Whether you're looking to generate passive income, build equity, or qualify for EU residency, this model offers the financial security and hands-off experience investors value—especially when buying remotely.

The Remote Advantage in 2025

In 2025, remote real estate investment isn’t just about convenience—it’s a smart, strategic move. As global investors seek efficiency, stability, and mobility, Cyprus stands out as an ideal market for fully remote property ownership.

  • Time-Efficient, Digital-First Process: From virtual tours to digital contracts, you can complete the entire purchase process without leaving your country—saving time, costs, and unnecessary travel.
  • Legal and Operational Peace of Mind: Our team handles every step of the transaction with full legal oversight and consistent communication, making overseas investing feel local and secure.
  • Professionally Managed, Passively Earned: Through our partner Moving Doors (MODO), your property is fully furnished, leased, and maintained for you. Investors on select projects benefit from a 7% guaranteed annual return for the first 3 years.
  • High-Demand Markets, Optimised ROI: We focus on areas like Limassol and Paphos, where rental demand, compact unit appeal, and steady appreciation create strong, sustainable returns.
  • Access to Cyprus Permanent Residency & Schengen zone: Investments from €300,000+ may qualify for Cyprus’s fast-track EU residency program, offering long-term security and increased mobility for non-EU investors.
  • Schengen Access on the Horizon - Cyprus Set to Join by 2026: Even more compelling: Cyprus is on track to join the Schengen zone by 2026. This means future residents will enjoy passport-free travel across 29 European countries, without the need for ETIAS or visa restrictions.
