Purchase Property in Turkey

Before you embark on your search for your dream property in Turkey, you need to decide exactly what you are looking for and most importantly what you can afford to spend.

Why are you buying a property in Turkey? Is it for investment purposes? Or will it be used as a holiday home? These are some of the questions you will need to ask yourself before you even start your property search.

Where would you like to purchase? Are you looking for something in a rural setting; a city centre apartment, or something close to the beach?

Setting a budget is particularly important and needs to be realistic in terms of your financial situation. You will also need to organise your finances, getting your finances in place for when the purchase is ready. You will need to have your deposit ready and make arrangements as to how you will fund the rest of your purchase. Many prospective buyers choose to remortgage there current property to finance the purchase of their Turkish property. Turkish mortgages are now also available.

Choose a Turkish solicitor to look after your interest. He/she will be able to guide you through the buying process and avoid any pitfalls.
