Cyprus Gate is an independent buyer-side property advisory operating in the Republic of Cyprus, trading as OC Cyprus-Gate Ltd (registration HE 489191) from Limassol. It acts only for property buyers: it holds no property inventory, represents no seller, and accepts no commission from any developer, agent or vendor. Clients are principally UK nationals buying, investing or relocating. Fees are fixed, milestone-based or hourly professional consultancy fees, agreed in writing before work begins and payable for work performed rather than contingent on a purchase completing.
Cyprus Gate helps UK buyers and relocators acquire property in the Republic of Cyprus on a buyer-only mandate. Work typically starts with a written brief covering districts, budget and regulatory position, then moves into market search, comparison and coordinated due diligence.
Recommendations are drawn from the open market across Limassol, Paphos, Larnaca, Nicosia, and the Famagusta coast (Protaras, Ayia Napa, Paralimni), including on-market, resale, off-plan and selective off-market opportunities. Where legal, tax, residency or banking work is required, Cyprus Gate coordinates licensed professionals whom the client engages directly.
The service line covers research and analysis, strategy and consultation, and the coordination work that runs alongside a purchase.
Cyprus Gate acts only for buyers. It holds no property inventory, takes no instruction from sellers or developers, accepts no commission from the other side of a transaction, and receives no referral fee from any professional it introduces. The client who pays the consultancy fee is the only party Cyprus Gate represents.
The reasoning behind that model, and what it changes for a UK buyer, is set out in How Cyprus Gate's Independence Protects Your Property Decision.
Cyprus Gate is not a licensed estate agent and does not provide legal, tax or immigration advice.

Cyprus Gate operates across the Republic of Cyprus, with its registered office in Limassol. We serve international buyers purchasing, investing, or relocating to Paphos, Limassol, Larnaca, Nicosia, and the Famagusta coast (Protaras, Ayia Napa, Paralimni).
Property acquisition in Cyprus requires licensed legal, tax, surveying and banking work that Cyprus Gate does not perform itself. Independently vetted professionals are selected for qualification and independence from the seller or developer in each transaction, and the client engages them directly.
How partners are selected, what disqualifies them, and how coordination works is set out on the partner network page.
Most engagements begin with a short acquisition brief: districts, price bands and property types that fit your requirements, budget and regulatory status as a UK national.
