The Cyprus Property market saw a sharp increase in sales in March 2026, particularly in the Famagusta region, which boasted an 88% increase from the same time last year. According to official statistics, a total of 1,761 property sale contracts were filed with the Land Registry, which is just 142 below the highest number of March sales ever recorded – 1,903 transactions which took place in 2007.
The data covers all property categories, including residential units (houses and apartments), commercial assets (offices, retail spaces, and warehouses), as well as land (fields and building plots).
Other districts also saw an increase, but not as high as Famagusta: Limassol +49%, Nicosia +28%, and Larnaca +7%. Paphos actually saw a slight decrease with -3%.
4,709 property sale contracts were deposited at Land Registry in the first quarter of 2026, that is a 14% increase compared to the 4,147 recorded during the same period in 2025. In the first quarter, all districts reported growth, with Famagusta again seeing the biggest increase:
Famagusta +36%, Limassol 16%, Nicosia 14%, Paphos 11% and Larnaca 9%.
With strong momentum across all districts and rising demand reflected in both monthly and quarterly figures, 2026 is shaping up to be an opportune time to act - whether you’re looking to secure a valuable investment or achieve the best possible return on your property, the Cyprus market is clearly moving in your favour.
