Eligibility & process
Yes, subject to nationality-based reciprocity rules and a military-zone clearance check. Some nationalities face restrictions — verify current eligibility for your specific nationality.
No — a notarized power of attorney lets a representative complete the entire process on your behalf, including the final tapu transfer.
Varies based on due diligence and, for foreign buyers, clearance processing time. See the full process timeline for typical stages.
Costs & taxes
Title deed transfer fee, possible agency commission, and translation/notary costs for foreign buyers. Budget as a percentage on top of the price, not a fixed sum. See the full cost breakdown.
An annual property tax assessed by the local municipality, typically paid in two installments per year. See the full tax guide.
Choosing where & what to buy
Depends on your purpose — see the full area comparison for a district-by-district breakdown.
Depends on budget, privacy preference, and which district you're drawn to — apartments dominate central districts, villas dominate Kargıcak and Konaklı.
New build offers warranty and modern specs but carries construction-timeline risk if off-plan; resale offers immediate occupancy and often a lower price per m².
What is a tapu?
Turkey's official property title deed, registered with the Land Registry — your legal proof of ownership once transferred into your name. See the full tapu guide.
