Also, it might be an idea to look for a cheaper rental in a village rather than a city. I presume the rents might be cheaper but then you might need your own wheels too. There should be an abundance of cheap stock.
Also, you are entitled to a RoC ID Card, and as a result you might be entitled to Unemployment Benefits and maybe a few other things as well. It would be worth checking that out.
But on the employment front, I reckon it would be easy getting a job to tide you over in the interim whilst you claim and finalise your property affairs. It might be a situation where you should look at things like bar tendering etc to pay your bills and rent until you can sort out your affairs.
Maybe you could also speak to some TCs who work in the non occupied areas because they might have some contacts or be able to tell you where to find work. Maybe things have changed slightly because unemployment is high.
I think far fewer Turkish Cypriots are now working in the recognised Cyprus-government controlled areas following the crisis.
