The legal system in Cyprus is mainly based on the Anglo-Saxon Legal system. The Land registry department in Cyprus is one of the most advanced and reliable systems in the world. All contracts and clerical work is in English, which is the most widely spoken language besides the Greek among the Cypriots. Property purchase in Cyprus will feel far more secure with regards to their title deeds, than they might in any other country. Legal fees/cost are reasonable and much lower than other E.U countries.
