Oksana Feshchenko      (Ukraine / Poltava)

My name is Oksana Feshchenko - I am the director of 'Contract Consulting Plus'. My company was created with the aim of providing the services of a consulting agency when buying real estate by the sea. That's why I recommend projects in Northern Cyprus. My family is not a fan of relaxing in hotels, so for comfort, we bought an apartment. When I personally faced the procedure of inspecting objects, registering electricity and water in the public utilities, and internet, and buying furniture and household appliances, I realized how easy it can be with a team of professionals. That's why I wanted to become a guide and lead a person who dreams of a vacation by the sea or a guaranteed investment for his goal.
