In our latest Property Talk by Bazaraki episode, we welcome Dr. George Pamboridis for an honest conversation with Tasos Bilianides, Development Manager of MPA Property Promoters & Consultants Ltd about the challenges shaping Cyprus today — from real estate and housing affordability to the cost of living and the country’s future direction.
In this conversation, we explore:
The real reasons major infrastructure projects struggle to move forward
How lack of institutional oversight fuels inaction — and how “checks & balances” could change that
Bureaucracy as a driver of corruption — and why digitization and transparency are key solutions
How Cyprus can attract the right foreign investment by rebuilding credibility and strengthening institutions
If you’re interested in Cyprus real estate, housing affordability, the cost of living, and the deeper policy forces behind them — this episode offers a sharp, unfiltered perspective on what’s broken, what’s possible, and what needs to change.
