For law firmsContact

For conveyancing lawyers in Cyprus · Homes in all five districtsYour buyer clients can have the home checked before they sign

Hand your client one sheet. A professional property consultant and condition surveyor inspects the home and signs the report. The report names the inspector. Your client books, pays and owns the report.

  • We pay no referral fees. We give no gifts or discounts to law firms.
  • Your client pays the same price, with or without a code.
  • You see the report only if your client shares it with you.

No firm name or logo on the sheet. Only a small reference, so we can count sheets per office.

What your client gets

Two checks for finished homes. The client orders and pays. The report says it was ordered by the client and goes to the client.

Pre-purchase check (resale)

Resale home, before your client signs

from €499 incl. VAT

  • A written report. What to fix first comes first.
  • Every finding with a photo, the location and a price band.
  • A repair list any contractor can price.
  • One PDF: the report and the photos, with date and time, by email or on WhatsApp.

Handover check (new-build)

Before the keys and the final payment

from €399 incl. VAT

  • A written report, with what to fix first.
  • A snag list for the developer, room by room. Each point has a Fixed box and a Checked box.
  • No repair prices. The report's "Who pays" box sends your client to you.

What the inspector looks at

The inspector checks finishing quality. They look for hidden flaws that cost money later. They do not judge structure or value.

Handover check

Who inspects and signs

Etimo inspectorProfessional property consultant and condition surveyor

Inspects the home and signs the report. The inspector checks finishing quality. They look for hidden flaws that cost money later.

We tell your client who is coming when we confirm the date. The report names the inspector.

The inspector is not a civil engineer or a valuer. They do not judge structure or value.

For a structural question, an ETEK-registered civil engineer can give a structural opinion on the same order. ETEK is the Cyprus Scientific and Technical Chamber. Its registered civil engineers and architects do and sign their own services.

Reports in English.

Etimo takes no money from estate agents, developers or sellers for a buyer's inspection.

How the report reaches you

Through your client. We do not send it to you ourselves.

We do not tell you that a client booked. Each month you get a band for your code: 0, 1–4 or 5 and more. Never names.

What we tell your client:

"The report is yours. You can share it with your lawyer by a private link. You choose who sees it. You can stop sharing at any time. Copies they download stay with them."

How the code works

Your office gets its own reference. It costs nothing. It is printed small on the sheet.

Ref. LW-____

  1. We send you the sheets, printed or as a PDF. They carry no firm name and no logo.

  2. You hand the sheet to your buyer clients from Mon 26 Oct. Bookings open Mon 2 Nov.

  3. Your client sends the reference to us on WhatsApp. Before Mon 2 Nov, your client gets the reply: "We note your request and confirm your date from Mon 2 Nov." Sheets printed from Tue 17 Nov also have a QR code.

  4. The reference only tells us which office gave the sheet. The price, the check and the report stay the same.

  5. Each month you get a band for your reference: 0, 1–4 or 5 and more. Never names, never single bookings.

Questions from law firms

Does handing out the sheet mean we recommend Etimo?
No. The sheet carries no firm name. It says your office gave it as one option and gets no payment from Etimo. Your client decides.
We also act for developers.
Then hand the sheet only to your resale buyer clients, never in a deal where you act for the seller or developer. We send a version without the new-build check.
Which homes and areas?
Finished homes: resale homes before signing, and new-builds before handover. All five districts of the Republic of Cyprus: Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos and the free area of Famagusta.
In which languages?
Reports in English. The sheet is in English for now.
