Step 1: Determine What Type of Property You Want

Before consulting with our sales experts, establish a clear vision of your ideal property. Consider whether you're seeking an apartment, villa, or investment property, and define your priorities for the purchase. Establishing open communication with your real estate agent about your specific needs and preferences for buying in Turkey will set a strong foundation for your property search.

Step 2: Review Every Option Presented to You

During initial consultations via phone, email, and in-person meetings, you'll be presented with a curated selection of properties across Istanbul's most desirable neighborhoods. Carefully evaluate each option based on your established criteria to identify the properties that best match your investment goals and lifestyle requirements.

Step 3: Schedule a Property Viewing Tour

Experience the properties you've selected by taking guided tours of each location. Visiting properties in person allows you to assess the actual condition, layout, and surrounding neighborhoods. This hands-on experience is invaluable for making an informed investment decision and helps you envision your future in each location.

Step 4: Negotiate the Price and Terms

Whether you're purchasing property in Istanbul as an investment, for Turkish citizenship eligibility, for retirement, or other purposes, we will negotiate directly with sellers to secure the best possible terms and prices for you. Our extensive connections with builders, developers, and private sellers allow us to negotiate favorable discounts.

We work directly with both buyers and sellers with no middlemen involved. Before finalizing any contract, we thoroughly review every detail to ensure mutual agreement. We guarantee that you receive your property with these key protections:

• The exact property shown to you by the original seller
• Debt-free and clear title
• Under mutually agreed-upon terms

Step 5: Pay Deposit and Sign Purchase Agreement

Once you've selected your property—whether a house, apartment, or villa—it's time to secure it. You'll pay a deposit of $5,000 to reserve the property and remove it from the market. This deposit is fully credited toward your final purchase price and deducted from the remaining balance.

We prepare a comprehensive official sales contract in your preferred language, detailing all terms and conditions. The down payment, typically ranging from 30–50% of the purchase price, must be completed within one to four weeks of contract signing. The remaining balance is paid upon title deed transfer.

Step 6: Execute Legal Procedures

Several essential legal procedures are required to complete your Istanbul property purchase:

• Turkish Tax ID Number: Your passport is sufficient to obtain this required identification
• Bank Account: We assist in opening a Turkish bank account for all purchase-related transactions and payments
• Appraisal Report: Required for all real estate sales to foreign buyers, this independent appraisal confirms the property's true market value. We coordinate with government-approved appraisers to expedite this process
• Power of Attorney: If you cannot be present for legal transactions, you can grant power of attorney to us, your lawyer, or a designated legal representative to act on your behalf

Step 7: Sign Title Deed and Move In

After contract signing, the purchase process typically takes approximately four weeks to complete. Your assigned lawyer will thoroughly review all documentation, inspect the property, and ensure proper registration in your name at the Land Registry Office.

Once all legal requirements and contract conditions are satisfied by both parties, your property will be officially registered in your name and you'll receive the title deed for your new Turkish property. Congratulations—you're now a property owner in Istanbul!
