What are the reasons for the Russians' interest in real estate investment in Turkey?
The report of the specialized group pointed to the most important reasons that made the Russians accept real estate outside their country, and it was clear that some of them invest to increase their capital and profits, while others are for the purpose of immigration and stability, and others for the sake of moving to live in countries with a warm climate or to live with their children in countries that enjoy a high standard of education and living standards, which means that most of them aim to settle there.
