Robust Growth In Cyprus Property Sales: Nicosia Achieves 15% Increase Amid August Dip

Market Overview

Cyprus’ property market maintained its upward trajectory in the first eight months of 2025, with sales documents rising 13% year-on-year despite a minor dip in August. A total of 11,689 sales documents were recorded compared to 10,345 during the same period last year, signaling a broadly stable yet strengthening market outlook.

District Performance

Limassol, long acknowledged as the leader in the Cypriot real estate landscape, continued to outperform. This district not only dominated overall sales with a 13% increase from 3,299 to 3,720 documents, but it also registered a remarkable 20% growth in August alone.

Nicosia also posted robust results with sales climbing 15% year-on-year from 2,295 to 2,640. However, the capital experienced a 7% decline in August following a substantial 36% surge the previous month. Similarly, Larnaca exhibited a solid performance with a 15% rise overall, despite a 9% decrease in August. Paphos, registering a 10% uplift over the period, and the Famagusta area, with a 10% increase driven by heightened demand for holiday homes, mirrored similar trends amid minor monthly setbacks.

Seasonal Trends And Strategic Outlook

Strong summer figures, with sales up 17% in June and 11% in July, underscore the market’s resilience. While August’s figures present only marginal declines, they have not derailed the overall positive momentum. These trends suggest that market consolidation is underway, supported by a robust demand across key districts.

Early figures from the first half of the year, which showed a 16% increase in sales documents and a total property transfer value nearing €2.3 billion, further highlight the sector’s durability. With Limassol and Nicosia leading in transaction values, investors and stakeholders remain confident in the sustained growth trajectory of the Cypriot real estate market.

Women Accounted For More Than Half Of Scientists In 10 EU Regions

In Portugal’s Continente region, 265,100 women worked as scientists and engineers in 2025, representing 46% of the total workforce in these occupations.

Across the EU, women made up more than half of all scientists and engineers in 10 regions. Four were located in Spain, two in Portugal and one in Greece. The remaining regions were Poland’s Makroregion centralny, Sweden’s northernmost region and France’s outermost regions.

Most of these areas had relatively small numbers of scientists and engineers overall. Spain’s Noreste region was the largest, with 102,700 women in these occupations, accounting for 51% of its total workforce.

Women’s Representation Varies Across Europe

The figures highlight considerable regional differences in both the number of women working in science and engineering and their share of the overall workforce.

Cyprus remains below the EU average, with women accounting for 37.8% of scientists and engineers. However, this share is broadly comparable to that of Île-de-France, one of Europe’s largest centres of scientific and engineering employment.
