Why buy a property in Turkey?
Traditionally people have bought property mainly in European-Mediterranean countries such as Spain, France, Italy
and Cyprus as well as famous US destinations like Florida. However, these places have recently become extremely
expensive and saturated. Nowadays, people have been seeking other alternative overseas destinations. If you prefer
buying a property at a very reasonable price which you can use yourself for regular holidays and that you can also
rent out to get some income in a country where the summer is nice and long, stretching from March to November, and
there are many tourism attractions, then Turkey is the most appropriate destination for you.
Turkey, where the two continents - Europe and Asia- meet, is a wonderful country which is surrounded by Agean,
Black, Mediterranean and Marmara seas, has very nice coastal locations, whose land had been the cradle of the
oldest civilisations and religions. Furthermore, life in Turkey is easy and Turkey is one of the few OECD countries with
the cheapest prices. People in Turkey are warm and hospitable to all foreigners. You can find very wide range of
delicious food and the Turkish cuisine is one of oldest and richest cuisines in the world. The sun, lovely nature, nice
beaches, exciting outdoor and entertainment activities, winter sports (in inner parts in winter time), skiing, water,
mountain sports, big modern shopping malls, and lots of sightseeing and historical places are all appealing features of
Turkey.
According to the Constitution, the characteristics of the Republic of Turkey are defined as democratic, secular and
social state governed by the rule of law; bearing in mind the concepts of public peace, national solidarity and justice;
respecting human rights; loyal to the nationalism of Atatürk. That's why the State is fair for all residents regardless of
their religion, social background, ethnicity, gender, and culture.
In year 2007, more than 23 million tourists visited Turkey and more than 25 million tourists are expected to visit Turkey
in 2008. This figure is expected to double within a few years. Moreover, future projects such as creation of much
more congress, golf, health tourism centres, having held international sports events such as Formula 1 races,
International University Olympics (Universade 05/Izmir) and UEFA Champions League Cup Final in 2005; the fact that
Turkey started full EU-membership negotiations in October 2005 are all potential factors which will contribute well to
property market in Turkey.
Moreover, the facts that:
and construction related businesses.
In this regard, buying a property in Turkey can really lead to substantial amount of gains if an appropriate decision is
made. Since property prices are steadily going upwards, there will be a significant difference between the acquisition
cost and the money you will get when you sell it. Moreover, your property is likely to amortise its acquisition cost within
at most 8 to 12 years if it is rent out properly. Charging comparatively low taxes on property is another advantage of
the Turkish property market.
As a result, the interest of foreigners in buying a property in Turkey has been growing. They buy real estate for either
investment or residential purposes. There are very quiet, environmentally very clean, secure and cheap places for old
people to live whereas there are very good job/business opportunities for qualified people who would like to work or to
establish their own enterprise.

investments and to protect the rights of foreign investors - The new mortgage law and other relevant laws with regards to the regulation and supervision of the property
market were enacted in 2007 - Housing supply in Turkey currently lags behind the demand
- Average age of houses in Turkey suggests that there is a strong need for new developments
- Significant number of buildings lack the required licenses
and construction related businesses.

Can I assign someone for the sales transactions?
If you wish, you can appoint someone to deal with all necessary transactions (such as buying, selling and renting your
property) by means of a legal document called "Power of Attorney" for buying property. This should be done in the
presence of a Notary-Public. You don't have to go to Turkey to prepare a Power of Attorney. You can have it
prepared in your native country. In that case, please make sure that it is legalised so that it can be 'an
acceptable/valid document' in Turkey. Legalisation simply means confirming that a signature, seal or stamp appearing
on a document is genuine. The signatures or seals of your native country’s public officials such as solicitors, notaries
public, registrars on certain documents from that country have to be confirmed before those documents can be
accepted in Turkey. For further information on ‘legalisation’, please contact the nearest Turkish consulate in your
native country. For a complete list of Turkish consulates worldwide please click here.
