1 - An opportunity to apply for real estate residency:

Real estate residency is one of the most important reasons that encourage a foreigner to buy real estate in Turkey, as it is the legal means that allows him to stay on Turkish land in a legal manner and without being subjected to violations. It also provides its holder with many advantages and rights that the Turkish citizen enjoys.


How can I obtain real estate residency?

Not any property is suitable for obtaining it, as it must be selected according to specific bases, which are as follows:

-The property must be designated for housing, which means that if you buy a commercial property, it will not be suitable for obtaining residency.

-The real estate value must be at least 75,000$.

-Issuing the real estate appraisal document that determines the real value of the property without forgery.

-The property should not be within a security or military zone because foreigners are not allowed to buy in it.

-The buyer must not hold a nationality that is forbidden to own property in Turkey.


2 - Obtaining Turkish citizenship:

According to what was announced by the Turkish Statistics Authority, more than 40% of those who buy real estate in Turkey aim to obtain Turkish citizenship because it is the best and fastest way, as it takes a period of time ranging from 3 months to a maximum of 6 months, and the period varies according to the applicant's file.


There are a set of conditions that must be met by the appropriate property to obtain citizenship, which are:

-The property value must not be less than 400,000$.

The holder of that citizenship can obtain many advantages and rights enjoyed by citizens of the Turkish state, such as retaining the first citizenship, participating in political life, benefiting from service and recreational facilities, and others.

It cannot be overlooked that real estate prices in Turkey are moderate and low compared to other countries around the world, especially European countries. The American Times reported in this regard that real estate prices in Turkey are 50-60% cheaper than prices in Eastern Europe, which is cheaper than the prices that are found in Western Europe, between 80 and 90%, and also cheaper than real estate prices in the American continent and in many Arab countries.

-The best and highest quality building materials are relied upon.

The most important types of real estate in Turkey:

Before you choose the right property for you in Turkey, you should take a quick tour to learn about the most important options available, whether you want housing and stability or real estate investment:

First: The apartments of the residential complexes are the most sought after by foreigners and local residents, according to reports in this regard. As for the reason that made them the best option, they provide the residents with an integrated and sophisticated lifestyle completely different from what is usual, where you will find the sauna - Turkish bath - indoor and outdoor pools – security and guarding over time - green spaces - strategic location - sea or forest view - the important investment future and the prices that are constantly increasing and rising.


Second: Apartments that are located in independent buildings, which is the most common real estate style, and you can find them in various Turkish states, and their features are less compared to apartments in residential complexes, and thus also their prices.


Third: You will hear in the Turkish real estate market a lot of terms that will seem strange to you. For example, we have penthouse apartments that first appeared in New York, America, before they spread to other countries, including Turkey, and are found on the last floors of high buildings and high-rise towers, and they are very expensive, suitable only for people with high budgets. We also have duplexes and triplexes whose prices are somewhat cheaper and have a great deal of distinction and a large area, which gives its residents comfort, independence and privacy.


Fourth: Studio apartments with small spaces that are suitable for one person living alone or for two people at most.


Fifth: Commercial real estate is one of the most important options in Turkey and suitable for real estate investment, as:

-The returns that can be obtained are great.

-The landlord does not have to deal directly with the tenant or solve the problems that appear in the property because he will make the modifications that fit his investment project.

-You will not find any delay in the payment of rent by the tenants because their financial conditions are excellent.


Sixth: Villas come in second place directly after apartments as the most important real estate option at all, as the demand for them is great, especially during the tourist seasons.


It is worth noting that the villas are suitable as an important investment field, as they can be a school / kindergarten / medical or health center / they can be rented to get a special monthly return / resold at a higher price, and add to your information that the villas are the least affected by the surrounding conditions such as political and economic conditions and others, as well as their prices are constantly rising.
