Creating Your Property Wish List in Turkey

Before you start looking for a property in Turkey, it’s essential to create a wish list of your requirements and preferences. This will help you narrow down your search and find a property that meets your needs and budget. Here are some things to consider when making your wish list:

Location: Think about where you want to live in Turkey. Do you want to be close to the city center or in a more suburban area? Do you want to be near the beach or in the mountains? Consider your lifestyle and preferences when choosing a location.

Property type: Do you want to buy an apartment, villa, or a townhouse? Each type of property has its pros and cons, so think about what will work best for you and your family.

Size: Consider the size of the property you want to buy. How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need? Do you need a large living room or a home office? Make sure the property you choose has enough space to accommodate your needs.

Amenities: Think about what amenities are important to you. Do you want a swimming pool, a gym, or a playground for your children? Do you need a parking spot or a garden?

Budget: Determine your budget for the property purchase. Make sure you have a clear idea of how much you can afford and stick to it. It’s important to consider additional costs like taxes, legal fees, and maintenance when setting your budget.

At Estates Istanbul, we understand that purchasing a property is a significant investment, and we are here to help you find the perfect property that meets your requirements and fits your budget. Our team of experienced real estate professionals will work with you every step of the 

way, from creating your wish list to finalizing the purchase. Contact us today to start your property search in Istanbul.

Property Viewing Tour and Video Property Service

If you’re considering purchasing a property in Turkey, it’s important to make an informed decision. One way to do this is by taking advantage of our property viewing tour, which is designed to help you find your dream home.

Before the tour, our sales consultants will gather all the necessary information related to the projects you are interested in and provide you with additional information about the properties. Once you arrive in Istanbul, our bilingual salesperson will pick you up and give you a brief overview of the homes you’re interested in. Then, your viewing trip will begin, and our experienced sales consultants will take you to see three or four properties that meet your needs.

If you can’t visit Istanbul in person, we also offer a VideoProperty service, where our sales consultants will take you on a virtual tour of the properties you’re interested in.

We want to make the property viewing process as seamless and convenient as possible for you. Contact us today to schedule your property viewing tour or to learn more about our VideoProperty service.

Navigating Legal Procedures

Completing the buying transaction for real estate in Turkey requires several legal procedures. You’ll need a Turkish tax identification number, which can be obtained using only your passport. At Estates Istanbul, our experienced sales consultants will assist you in obtaining this number and guide you through the rest of the legal process.

While opening a bank account is not mandatory, it can make the process of making purchase payments and paying utility bills easier. If you choose to do so, we can set up a bank account for you.

An appraisal report is required to validate the genuine worth of all real estate sales to foreign buyers in Turkey. To acquire an accurate and safe evaluation, we work with state-approved appraisers. Our team will assist you in obtaining this report.

If you don’t have time to handle these legal transactions, you can give power of attorney to us, your lawyer, or a legal representative. At Estates Istanbul, we offer power of attorney services to help you complete the legal process smoothly and efficiently.

Signing Your Property Contract in Turkey with Confidence

Once you have found your dream home in Turkey, the next step is signing the contract. At Estates Istanbul, we want to ensure that this process is as smooth and transparent as possible for you.

Before signing the contract, we will provide you with a detailed explanation of all the terms and conditions of the agreement. We will go over the purchase price, payment terms, and any other relevant information related to the property. Our experienced sales consultants will be with you every step of the way to answer any questions you may have.

Once you have reviewed and agreed to the terms of the contract, we will help you complete all the necessary paperwork. This includes obtaining the necessary documents from the title deed office, transferring the property into your name, and registering the property with the relevant authorities.

At Estates Istanbul, we understand that signing a property contract can be overwhelming, especially if you are a foreign investor. That’s why we offer our support throughout the entire process to ensure that you make an informed decision and understand the legal requirements of purchasing a property in Turkey.
