? The Weather ? As any true Brit will tell you, the appeal of a life with constant sunshine should not be underestimated. The temperatures, especially around the flatter coastal areas of the island, are ideal for the average Brit all year round and the winter is mild and short, with an average temperature of 17˚ C.

? Lifestyle ? The lifestyle in Cyprus is typically very laid-back and relaxed. Many would-be ex-pats are drawn to Cyprus because of its low crime rate. In fact, most of locals don?t lock their cars or houses as the theft and burglary rate is so low.

? Buy to Let ? Many of the properties in Cyprus have a high buy-to-let potential and this provides property investors with a sound investment opportunity.

? Living Costs ? If you have ever been to Cyprus on holiday you will already know that the actual living costs are remarkably low, making it an ideal destination for the Brits.

? Local Hospitality ? Not only do ex-pats find the local people extremely warm and friendly but about 90% of the population can speak English which makes Cyprus a great choice of places to live abroad if your foreign languages aren?t so hot.

?UK Basis ? As the history of Cyprus has some roots in British rule, many ex-pats find the strong legal and financial ties to the UK reassuring. In fact, they even drive on the same side of the road!
