How can investors gain permanent residency in both North and South Cyprus?
I'm a foreigner looking to buy sea view property in Cyprus. Would I be able to gain access to the South (and vice versa) if I buy the property in the North? I understand the island is divided so I want to make sure my permanent residency would be valid across the island.
