| We are looking to sell our Villa in Ozankoy, we do not as yet have our Kocan although we anticipate having it by March 09. Can anyone confirm if it is possible to sell without the Kocan and is it a legal requirement to sell through a local estate agent. Any other info. on this subject would be very welcome thanks Doug |

| you dont need a kocan to sell, try Unwins, it seems they sell more property than any other agent, judging by this board. Then we can see if anyone complains about your villa.... Watch this space... |

| Re selling You do not have to use an estate agent. They could help you sell as they can obviously reach more buyers, however if you use the boards you can try on those, word of mouth etc. Good luck Sassy |

| that will make good headlines, Council worker sells villas, cars, caravans, prams tables, cats, dogs, rabbits and even your wife... Well if the U.K does not reconise TRNC, how can you sell property in the u.k? or is it ok if you work for the council? |

| I thought you could only sell your property if you had your Kocan and then only sell 3 times before you are classed as a professional seller.If you dont have your Kocan then technically it is still the builders,you would then drop out of the equation and the contract is then between the buyer and the builder.If say for example you paid £50000 and were selling for a £100000 the builder would have to pay taxes on the higher price plus wait for a number of years for you to get your PTB before being able transfer the Kocan hence he may want a part of your profits.Any transaction between buyer and seller done through an estate agent has to be registered on signing of contracts thus protecting the buyer. |

| Doug, Might be a long shot, but put it up for sale with a Spanish/Canary Islands/Portuguese estate agent. Compared to prices in the Euro zone, your house will look exceptional value for money, and there are thousands of Brits looking to bail out of these countries. For anyone paid in GBP planning an overseas home, the Euro zone is about 40% dearer than last year, anyone paid in Euro's, your house (priced in GBP) just got 40% cheaper for them. Might be with a try. Knock on effect, if plenty of people looked at NC instead of the Euro zone, there could be a quick recovery to prices and locally collected revenues here. There is good potential, if marketed properly in the Euro zone, and people made aware, for NC property prices to come out of the Euro disaster quite nicely. |

| Hi Doug....our place is also in Ozankoy. Is your villa on Turkish Title deeds? How long have you been waiting for your Kocan? Do you have your PTP? What makes you think you will get your Kocan in March 09?....is it just based on best guesses from your advocate? Sorry to be nosey.....but we have been waiting nearly 2 years now. |

| Good luck on selling. But I think you will take a hell of a loss. I think the buying market is extinct. |

| Post No. 11 You have made a relevant point. If you do not have your title deed, the new contract will need to be between the builder and your purchaser. In this respect, you will need the services of an estate agent. If you find a buyer privately, then ask the agent to charge a nominal fee instead of their usual commission. Ian Smith is worth a try. |

| Might be useful for some to know if thinking odf selling, deeds can be issued with no name on them, so if the property is to be sold soon after issue, this means title is issued imediately in the new owners name (good selling point) and the original owner pays no selling taxes, or so our builder informs me. |

| sparta, we (and our ptp) are very fortunate to have an honest builder, than knows the rules, and helps out wherever he can. this may not be the case for all. |

| PTP means Brian, permission to purchase, which without you cannot take title to your property. therefore your builder is telling you porkies.... and is not as and green as you are... |

| keep on listerning to your wonderful builder, i am sure your deeds with no name on them are worth all you paid for them... you may find that the colouring set and bar of dreamy kocan flav choc bar is worth more... Good luck you need it!! |
