About — N°01 Pafos · Cyprus

Founded on the Mediterranean coast, VAN Corporation is a full-cycle property developer — a builder, a project creator, and an investment partner, delivering its own residential and commercial developments from concept to completion.

Origins

VAN Corporation started in Pafos in 2014. Over the following decade it grew from private property investment into a full-cycle developer — creating, designing, building, and delivering its own residential and commercial projects. It is still run like a family business: decisions are careful, unhurried, and made by the people who founded it.

One company, four roles. We develop the projects, engineer and build them with our own hybrid construction system, bring them to market, and invest alongside partners across the cycle — so the standard is set and held from the first drawing to the final handover.

Principles

01

Trust before transaction.

Long-term relationships outrank short-term wins. We pick partners and projects accordingly.

02

Build what actually lasts.

A heavy-steel structure and a monolithic wall system, engineered to hold their standard for generations — not just to trend.

03

Premium, without excess.

Considered materials and precise construction, delivered at a fair price. Quality shouldn't demand a premium markup.

04

Local, but exacting.

Rooted in Cyprus, measured against world standards. Mediterranean character, global quality.

FAQ

Straight answers to the questions we hear most — general guidance only; talk to our team for advice specific to your situation.

01 Legal & Compliance

Do I need planning and building permits to build or extend a property in Cyprus?

Yes. All new constructions, extensions, and major structural renovations require planning and building permits issued by local district offices, usually managed via the IPPODAMOS e-system.

Are you a licensed developer and contractor?

Yes. We hold current Cyprus Contractors Register classifications appropriate to each project's scale, and we develop and build under full legal compliance from foundation to handover.

02 Cost, Contracts & Process

How long does a typical project take, from permits to handover?

Timelines vary by project size and permit processing. Because we build with a prefabricated hybrid steel system rather than casting a full concrete frame, the structural phase is faster and more predictable — we set a realistic schedule at contract signing and keep you updated at every milestone.

How do you structure your contracts and pricing?

We offer transparent, fixed-scope contracts. Payment stages are tied to physical construction milestones (foundation, structure, walls, finishes) and outlined clearly before work begins — no hidden costs.

What are the payment options?

Depending on the project, we offer staged payment plans tied to construction milestones, and can help coordinate financing through local and international banks.

03 How We Build

What is your construction system?

A hybrid steel system. Heavy steel columns and beams carry the structural loads and provide stability; a 150 mm galvanized LSTK frame forms the walls and floors around that skeleton, reinforced with horizontal Omega profiles. The wall cavity is then filled with monolithic foam concrete.

How do you handle Cyprus's climate and water supply in your builds?

The heavy-steel frame is engineered for the region's wind and seismic loads, and the LSTK walls are filled with monolithic foam concrete for thermal comfort, sound insulation, and fire resistance. For water, we integrate modern pressurization and storage systems to handle seasonal supply.

Are your homes energy efficient?

Yes. Our walls are a monolithic foam-concrete envelope cast between permanent EPS insulation and interior cement board, around the LSTK frame — engineered for strong thermal and acoustic performance and designed to meet current Cyprus and EU energy standards.

What warranty or after-sales support do you provide?

We provide a structural warranty and stay available to resolve any issues after handover. Because we develop and build the property ourselves, one team stands behind it end to end.

04 Purchasing & Investing

Can I invest in a development before it's completed?

Yes. You can enter a project during development and share in its outcome, or acquire a completed property outright — we work with investors across the whole development cycle.

As an international buyer, do you assist with Permanent Residency applications?

We work alongside trusted, specialized legal advisors to help you understand and navigate Cyprus's residency and investment programs alongside your property purchase.

Can I rent out my property after completion?

Yes. We can connect you with property management services that handle everything from tenant screening to maintenance and rent collection, so your investment works for you even when you're not on the island.
