Linda Iosifaki – Sales Consultant
“I have been lucky enough to live here in Cyprus for the past 15 years. I originally came over here to work in the Hotels as a ‘bluecoat” style entertainer, and had a blast! I was then even luckier to marry a wonderful Cypriot man and have a child, but then decided I should get a “real’ job and ventured in to the business of Real Estates. I love this job and have been doing it for nearly 7 years. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new people, listening to their stories and helping them find a property that they love. Since living here in Cyprus I have taken Greek Dance Lessons and can now jump up and dance with the locals – ooba! And smash plates. I love the weather, especially the winter months when the beaches are quiet, the nature trails are green and the air is fresh. I can honestly say moving to Cyprus was the best decision I made.”
Debi Wellman – Sales Consultant
“I have lived in Cyprus permanently for 6 years, but had been visiting for 10 years prior to that, eventually we purchased a holiday apartment and in the first year we came out 13 times!! We loved it so much, we knew a permanent move was inevitable! We have never regretted our move here; we love it, the lifestyle, the people and the whole way of life. My youngest daughter came with us and has since married a Cypriot and we have two beautiful grandchildren. When I first arrived I worked in a bar in Ayia Napa which was fun as I got to know many people and from there was offered a position as a Sales Consultant for an Estate Agents, I worked there for over two years. I then left and joined Purple three years ago, it's the perfect job for me as I have been through the whole relocation procedure, the worries, the ‘are we doing the right thing’ thoughts and the ‘who can we ask...’ etc, I know exactly how clients feel and can help them as I've been there! Many of my friends here are previously my clients.”
Zafira Pashi – Sales Consultant
“I am an English Cypriot, born and raised in Manchester. I moved to Cyprus 10 years ago. Experiencing living both here and in the UK , I can honestly say I would never go back! One of my favourite things about Cyprus is that no matter what time of year it is you can wake up and enjoy a coffee overlooking the beautiful Mediterranean. I have worked in the real estate industry for 9 years and joined PURPLE early 2010. I am very outgoing and love meeting new people. I have been told sometimes I may be too honest! However I don’t feel this is a negative comment. I will always do the best for my client if I feel I wouldn’t make the purchase I would never suggest it to my client.”
Susan Spencer – Sales consultant
“I have lived in Cyprus for nearly 13 years. At first I worked as a Tourist Representative for 3 years and then I entered in to the property industry for 11 years before joining PURPLE in 2010. Before moving to Cyprus I completed a BTEC national diploma Travel and Tourism and went on to work for British Airways. I love swimming, walking and taking the beautiful sights Cyprus has to offer after 15 years of living here I still enjoy every day! I also like relaxing in my garden reading and soaking up the sun! I have a fantastic knowledge of Cyprus and will be able to help with every step of your purchase and relocation!”
Elaine – Sales Consultant
“I arrived in Cyprus in November 2001, I started work in the January for one of the top developers selling property all over Paphos but specializing in Kamares village. Having lived in Denmark for 10 years and speaking the language I was also allocated many Scandinavian clients that arrived to buy during the summer of 2003. Working with PURPLE I am no longer tied to one developer so I can explore all options to assist our clients’ needs. With our new website we have a great selection of off plan and new properties as well as Resales of all types across the region. My area of Paphos stretches from the Bays of Pissouri along the entire stretch of Paphos town up to the hills of Kamares and Tasada, and along the coast to Chloraka where my colleague Sue then takes over. Living in Cyprus and its relaxed life style has enhanced my life no end and I find it easy to spring out of bed every morning to beautiful sunny skies and warm breezes, shopping is simple but effective and dining out a great experience with lots of choice from cosmopolitan 5 star hotels to family run tavernas. With a wealth of knowledge and good local contacts we are here to find the right property for the right budget for all our potential clients.”

I came to Cyprus for a long holiday in 1996 I fell in love with the island and decided to stay. I worked as a Barmaid in Ayia Napa and then in a Nightclub.

My hobbies include talking, reading, wining and dining, socializing and of course making the most of the beautiful Cypriot weather.

Harriet Koutsoudes – Marketing Assistant
“I have lived in Cyprus for 5 years now and have loved every day. I enjoy the relaxed Cypriot way of life and wonderfully long summer. There are so many things to enjoy at all times of the year. I love visiting the beautiful Troodos Mountains with it various picnic sites, waterfalls and nature trails. During the cool winter days I love shopping in the bustling capital of Nicosia. Before Joining PURPLE in 2008 I worked for an entertainment company singing in various venues in the popular holiday destinations of Protaras and Ayia Napa. This gave me great experience with all different types of people. I love working for PURPLE although I am not directly involved with the sales – we all work very closely with each other helping where ever we can! It’s a brilliant atmosphere we are like a 1 big family!”
