Cyprus weathers economic storm
Cyprus does not seem to have been negatively affected by the worldwide financial crisis, a newspaper has stated.
According to the Independent, house prices in the Mediterranean island went up by 20 per cent last year.
This is considerably more than in many other European countries and a sign that the credit crunch is not hitting its housing market to the same extent.
The newspaper said this development represents a "convincing case" for the island's investment credentials.

According to the Home Move website, property values in Cyprus are likely to go up by about eight per cent this year.
