Property For Sale In Turkey

Legal Procedures

Buying a property in Turkey is not as complicated as you may think, although it can be time consuming but we aim to make the process as easy as possible for you. Foreigners are able to purchase land and property under their own names. Once a sale has been agreed an application is made to the local land registry office to acquire the title deed of the property (known locally as tapu). A copy of your passport is sent to the Ministry of Defense for authorization which can take from 6 to 10 weeks. Once all the checks on the property or land have been carried out and the authorization has been returned from the Ministry of Defense the title deeds will be changed into your name. Should you decide to sell your property you can do at any time and are free to take the money out of the country.
