Hello We are a couple that have been on holiday to Cyprus many times in the last 20 years, we are both in our early 50's and feel the time is now right for us to move to Cyprus, we particularly love Pissouri and Tala areas and all the villages. We would like to do a long term rental, i am self employed and would work from home with internet access and my husband will also be self employed and would need to find work, something like a handyman, pool cleaner, house cleaner, basically anything that would provide a small income. Does anyone have a step by step idiots guide of how we go about making the move, any advice would be great! What is the healthcare like, i have a long term medical condition that requires regular medication, is this easy to arrange? Can you suggest a good private medical insurer? Are there any expat groups in the Pissouri and Tala areas that we could join? What is an average costs to buy a second hand 4 x 4? Where do we need to register that we are in Cyprus long term, do we need a visa to live/work in Cyprus? I am so sorry for sooo many questions, we just don't know where to start! We are coming to Cyprus for a holiday in June 2016 and would love to start move by looking for accommodation while we are there. So excited!
I would start by taking a look at the Expat Arrivals guide on Moving to Cyprus. It has dedicated pages on most of the important aspects of relocating to Cyprus such as Healthcare and Cost of Living.
Take a look and let me know if you have any more specific questions.
Regards
