WHEN LOOKING TO BUY PROPERTY IN TURKEY, YOU WILL NO DOUBT HAVE A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS OR FACTORS TO CONSIDER. WE WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO DISCUSS THE PURCHASING PROCESS WITH YOU. TO HELP YOU GET STARTED, WE HAVE ALREADY INCLUDED SOME OF THE MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS IN THIS BROCHURE. Are there any restrictions for foreigners purchasing in Turkey ? Only in rural areas and military zones. In the development that we promote, there are no restrictions imposed. Will the property be freehold ? Yes, all properties we sell in Turkey are what we in Europe would refer to as 'freehold'. On a new development , how are the payments ? You have to pay a reservation fee, and we can offer you a stage payment for the balance, or you can also pay the balance in full, when the property is constructed . Is there a good range of banks and are they English speaking ? There are many banks where English is widely spoken, so no worries there. It is easy to open a bank account and you can have both Turkish and English accounts - your choice. Are double taxation treaties in place ? Turkey is a signatory to a treaty for the prevention of double taxation with many countries of the world. How many British people live in the Mediterranean region ? In 2003, there were about 100.000 British living in Turkey provinces, and with sales as high as they are now, this figure will increase substantially. Away from the coastal areas, there are plenty of ex-pats in the main cities too. What facilities are there on a typical development? Owing to the very pleasant year round weather, which can get rather hot at its height, swimming pool communal, private or both are the main pre requisite. You will find some developments offering tennis courts, Turkish baths, spa rooms and easy access to golf. How do the locals treat foreigners who purchase there ? You will find Turkish people extremely hospitable and friendly. Are families/children welcome ? Most definitely . There is a family orientated culture in Turkey and children are welcome everywhere. How safe is Turkey ? Turkey is a very safe country with a relatively low crime rate. How does the general cost of living compare to the UK ? Fresh produce is great value for money. You will find most items up to 50 percent cheaper than in the UK with electrical items being the most expensive. What about eating out ? Again, you will benefit from the relatively low prices. Being a Muslim country, you will often find Pork and its associated products excluded from the menu, however, there is a wide choice of other meats, seafood, and vegetables. As well as Turkish cuisine, you will find English, Italian and Indian restaurants quite commonplace. What is the government system in the country ? It is democratically elected as in the other countries in Europe. Turkey is also one of the five permanent members of the NATO. How is the weather all year round ? Surely one of the main attractions in Turkey is its wonderful climate. Like most areas of the Mediterranean, Turkey has over 300 sunny days a year, 1.500 kilometers of Mediterranean coastline, it is the perfect place to enjoy long, lazy days on the beach. The summers are hot and dry, the winters are short warm and mild. Reserve off plan and reap the benefits.
