Türkiye has a highly attractive real estate market that has been rapidly enhanced over the past 20 years by policies that prioritize the construction sector and multi-billion infrastructure investments.
Compared to the global real estate market, which largely came to a halt in the second quarter of 2020 when most of the world shut down in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Turkish real estate market reached its peak due to plunging interest rates and booming demand. According to Turkstat, housing sales in Türkiye reached 1.49 million units, while sales to foreign nationals increased by 43.5% in the same period and hit a record-high 58,576 units.
Foreign investors may acquire properties and restricted real rights of up to 30 h. (In Turkish law, real rights are rights that give direct control over movable or immovable property and that can be asserted by anyone). The total area of properties acquired by foreign nationals may not exceed 10% of the surface area of the property’s subject district. In addition, foreign buyers may not acquire properties in military forbidden zones, following the Military Forbidden Zones and Security Zones Law No. 2565.
There are two ways to acquire an immovable property in Türkiye. First, the buyer may entrust a power of attorney in Türkiye. Otherwise, they must obtain a Turkish tax number and open an account at a Turkish bank. The next step is signing the contract with the seller. The transfer of the title deed can be executed through the Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre or online with Webtapu (webtapu.tkgm.gov.tr/), which is available in Arabic, English, French, and Russian.
Buyers are required to pay a 4% title deed fee, along with a circulation capital fee based on the property’s value. The value cannot be less than the value in the appraisal report, which shows the actual value of the property. The revolving capital fee is determined as compensation for the services provided during title deed transactions and must be paid during processes such as the sale or transfer of the property. It typically ranges from approximately 10,000 to 15,000 Turkish Lira and is subject to change.
No, the buyer is allowed to transfer the purchase price directly from abroad without opening a bank account.
Properties in major city centers offer yields of around 9%, while those in coastal areas can deliver yields ranging from 15% to an impressive 20%.
If a buyer rents their property annually to an individual or a company, they would have to file a tax return for their rental income for the previous calendar year to the nearest tax office between 1 and 25 March. The tax is paid in equal installments twice a year — in March and July. The minimum rental income, which is not taxed, is TRY 9,500 for housing and TRY 70,000 for commercial properties per year.
Local property tax is payable in two equal installments, the first in May and the second in November. The buyer is required to contact the local municipality for further information and payment options. The amount to be paid for that year is calculated by using the rates below over the minimum fair values of the real estate within the relevant year.
