Our experience of renting property and especially here in Cyprus, the owners of cyprus rental property, are geared for renting on a long term basis for cyprus property.

I hear you, Richard, I had to find a rental in Melbourne and it was two toughest months of my life. Working full time and trying to look for a house pretty much took all I’ve got. On top of everything else they won’t let you apply unless you’ve inspected the place first and those inspections are in the middle of working days, which makes it so much harder because I had to get out of work every time.
[...] on “first come, first served” bases I started to arrive to inspection with all the necessary documents photocopied so that I only had to fill out the application and then I could submit it on the spot. [...]
