Key Importance When Making the Title Deed (TAPU) in Turkey

It is very important to give correct information during the purchase of the property, especially the purchase price, in order to avoid being exposed to accountability and fined later. Sometimes, the defaulters are fined up to 25% of the tax.

The parties must agree in order to determine the sale fees of the property. It is customary to pay the fees equally between the parties to the seller, in the form of dividing the amount into both parties. However, although there is no clear and explicit text in this context, fees are usually charged to the buyer. Therefore, it is better to agree between the parties about the methods of paying fees and will clarify these matters during the implementation of the deal between the parties.

In this case, it is very important to state the subject of the commission to be received by the broker as well as the issues related to the payment of fees that will arise from the sale of the property.
