The Turkish government has taken a number of serious and bold decisions to promote the real estate sector during the recent period when it put forward some incentives that would encourage foreign investors to invest in them.

These decisions came for the investor and his interest on the one hand, and for supporting the Turkish economy and its real estate sector on the other.

Among the most important factors that played an important positive role to support this trend are:

Recent statistics and studies on the real estate market in Turkey are promising and optimistic for the next phase.

It is clear from the statistics compiled by the Turkish Statistical Organization TÜİK, concerning the financial costs of construction, that these costs are increasing at an estimated cost twice as much. According to official statistics, the cost of building a house in Turkey has increased from last year, which was already expected for this phase and the next, especially with attracting a significant group of foreign investors to the Turkish real estate market.

Statistics also show that the building new homes in Turkey has started to decrease slightly, which positively affects the price stability at the present time, with a steady rise in the coming days, meaning that those who invest in real estate now will reap the profits of the real estate value increase rapidly during the coming period.

Even for those who are not buying a new house in this current golden period, as real estate prices in Turkey are cheap and available to many people, will feel regret in the coming period when these prices will see a significant rise.

Where the foreign citizen paid an average of 135 thousand US dollars per property, which is lower than the average real estate prices in Turkey for the same period last year, due to the high exchange rates of the dollar against the Turkish lira," Mr. Akbal said.

"Turkey has generated nearly US $ 1.3 billion in sales this quarter, and what foreigners bought from home furniture, such as kitchen appliances, floor carpets, curtains, etc., has had a big impact on this figure, in which falls within the Turkish national income" he also said.

"We have seen a decline in average property prices in Turkey from $ 148,000 last year to $ 135,000 this year, but with the high real estate buying trend in the real estate market, we expect this figure to reach: 150 thousand US dollars for the whole of the current year” he added.

Best Time to Buy Apartments and Properties in Turkey

Economists and real estate investment experts are divided into two teams. Economists encourage investment funds to remain cash in this period, fearing the money market, but real estate investment experts prove that investing in real estate is the most effective form of investment to collect interest and profit.

Real estate investment experts believe that this period is a golden opportunity for real estate investment, especially for those who have liquidity and can pay the price of the property at once, through some offers, they implicitly get discounts up to 40%.
