Turkey | Slight decrease in the rate of land price increases

Imtilak Real Estate monitors for you some real estate reports that discuss a relative decline in the prices of land prepared for construction across all Turkish provinces.

Slowing Pace of Increase in Construction Land Prices

In recent years, construction lands have seen a significant increase in demand, especially over the past two years, which has led to a continuous rise in the prices of these lands, exceeding 100% across Turkey, and even higher in major provinces and areas of particular strategic importance.

One of the main factors that played a key role in the increased demand was the significant rise in house prices in Turkey, which made investing in construction lands a less costly option. In addition, the changes imposed by the spread of the coronavirus in recent years made standalone homes built to suitable health standards one of the main trends in residential real estate investment.
