Property for sale in Turkey-Antalya, Alanya, Belek, Mahmutlar and Side and North Cyprus - in Catalkoy, Alagadi and Esentepe. New. off Plan and resale.

Buying property in Turkey is a lot simpler now. The procedure is often far easier than in most European countries. Foreigners may purchase land and property in Turkey in their own name and, when the time comes to sell, the proceeds of the sale may be transferred out of Turkey. A lawyer/solicitor is not required in Turkey although it makes sense, for your own peace of mind, to consult one. The cost would be 1% of the property value.
Title deed tax is 3%.

2. We will prepare a letter, a copy of the legal papers, together with a copy of your passport and send them to the authorities.

3. It is advisable before you leave to open a bank account in Turkey to enable you to transfer the instalments as required. We will assist you in this.

4. When all the checks have been conducted and the papers returned our partner will arrange all the rest for you.

5. On the day of transfer, our partner completes all the necessary paperwork regarding the legal and financial issues.

     We have tried to simplify the process here but when you have made a decision to buy, we will talk you through each step in detail. When we are working together and have a full understanding of what is right for you, we can give advice regarding a solicitor, property survey (if required), insurance, annual property tax etc.
