Hi Nigel wonder if either you or any of your members can point me in the right direction.

I am a member of the owners committee at Peyia Paradise and have been assigned the task of pursuing the title deeds for all properties on the complex (50).
I have been working on this for some time as you can imagine however I am now at the stage where I have managed to get everything permits/certificates etc issued by Peyia Municipality and our application is with the Land Registry.

When I enquired with the LR re timescales for the deeds I have been advised that there are 5 steps to getting deeds ie

1.Application registered - file ref allocated
2.Surveying dept
3.Drawing dept
4.Local enquiries
5.Deeds issued

Does anyone know if the above is correct ?

I was then advised that our application has passed stage 1 and is now in the surveying backlog.However if our owners wish to pay a fee for an independent surveyor to complete the surveying process then we can.

I was advised we can use any bona fide surveyor to do this.
I rang Hadjidemosthenous who has confirmed that this was now the case and would be prepared to do the work for us for a fee of approx 300 euros (entire complex of 50 dwellings).

I have not been able to establish exactly how much time this would save us.

Do you have any members that have any experience of this new procedure ?

Do you have any details of surveyors independent to Hadji that I might be able to contact to discuss further.

I look forward to hearing from you.
Elaine

Hello Elaine and welcome to the forum,

I've just email you a list of surveyors who are by the Lands and Surveys Department to carry out this work. I know that there is a long waiting list and it will probably take at least a year if you waited for the Land and Survey people to do it for you.

Kind regards,

Hi Nigel

Are the above steps, that Elaine has mentioned, correct in getting Title Deeds, in that order?
