RENT BY INSTALMENT SCHEME 

In Cyprus, the "Rent vs Instalment Scheme" allows vulnerable households to rent properties while being relieved of their mortgage loans. The state covers the required rent, and after five years, the property can be repurchased at a favourable price below market value.

Additionally, the "Rent to Installment" scheme provides a social safety net for homeowners facing financial distress, allowing them to transfer ownership of their property to the state-owned asset management company, KEDIPES, while remaining tenants under a long-term rental agreement.
