What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A study utilizing information from the Land Registry identified 14,208 registered jointly owned buildings and 6,711 unregistered developments in Cyprus. The study supports proposed reforms intended to address unpaid communal fees in jointly owned buildings. These reforms would grant management committees more leverage over outstanding bills and introduce a new annual charge of €20 per unit.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The proposed changes aim to ensure that maintenance shortfalls, such as those related to lift servicing, are covered. While the legislation has not been passed and the new fee is not currently payable, the Interior Ministry and five district local government organizations are working toward an agreement, with a target date of January 1, 2029, for transferring responsibilities.
