KIM Estate · buyer knowledge
Clear answers before buying property in Türkiye. Documents, budgets, living and renting.
The advertised price is the starting point. Before paying a deposit, request a cost estimate for the specific property: who is selling, what the price includes and which payments remain after handover.
For a standard sale, the tapu harcı is 2% each for buyer and seller — 4% in total. It is calculated on the declared actual transaction value, which must not be below the property tax value. This does not permit an arbitrary understatement of the price in the documents. The parties should agree in advance how the costs will be shared.
Ask for the aidat — the complex's maintenance fee — the services it covers and any planned major works. Also allow for taxes, insurance, appliance maintenance and possible repairs. Furniture costs should be based on an agreed item list rather than a single headline estimate.
Compare the total commitment: property, purchase costs, preparation for use and ongoing maintenance. Ask for the calculation date, currency and the party responsible for each payment. This lets you compare two properties with the same asking price fairly.
At KIM Estate, we can start the search with your total budget, leaving room for purchase costs and setting up your home.
Good photos help you choose a property to view. A purchase decision should follow a review of the documents and the property itself. Here is the sequence of checks we recommend for your search in 2026.
Request the TAPU details and check the address, plot, independent unit number and owner. Have a specialist check current mortgage entries, seizures and other restrictions. A preliminary agreement alone does not transfer ownership; registration at the land registry is required.
Check for damp and examine windows, electrics, plumbing, lifts and common areas. See whether the advertised facilities actually operate. An indoor pool in a photo and one that works in winter are different things. If you have doubts about the building's technical condition, involve a qualified specialist.
Foreign individuals purchasing property are required to obtain a bank document confirming the sale of foreign currency — Döviz Alım Belgesi (DAB). Agree on the payment process and document requirements with the bank and land registry before transferring funds.
Record the property, price, included furniture, handover dates and refund terms if the checks reveal a problem. Discuss unclear contract clauses with an independent lawyer in advance.
Separate checks are needed when buying for residence, citizenship or tourist rentals. An attractive apartment does not itself establish eligibility for these purposes.
Before choosing property for an application, define your goal: using a home on visits, relocating or applying for citizenship through investment. This determines the checks needed for the property and transaction.
On the review date, Türkiye's official investment portal states a threshold of at least US$400,000 or the equivalent in foreign currency, and a restriction on resale for at least three years. Meeting the value threshold is only part of the conditions; citizenship decisions are made by the state authorities.
Listings are often priced in euros, but converting that amount into dollars is not enough. Before paying a deposit, check the property's and transaction's eligibility, value evidence, payment documents and the procedure for registering the no-resale commitment.
Göç İdaresi provides for short-term residence permit applications by homeowners; the property must be residential and used for that purpose. Holding a TAPU does not mean automatic approval. Current additional requirements concerning value, address and documents must be checked for the specific case before purchase.
Applications are made through the official e-İkamet system. The documents depend on the basis of the application. Do not choose an apartment solely on a promise of a guaranteed permit, or assume that buying land has the same effect as buying a home.
Applicants' citizenship, family members, purchase goal, intended relocation date and total budget. This helps distinguish suitable properties from those serving a different purpose.
KIM Estate can discuss properties matching your goal. A qualified specialist should confirm the legal suitability of the specific property and documents before the purchase.
Buying to rent out starts with two questions: which rental format is available for the apartment, and what remains for the owner after costs? A peak-season nightly rate answers neither question.
Tourist letting for 100 days or less per agreement requires a Ministry of Culture and Tourism permit. Listings must display the permit number; property and guest-registration requirements apply. Permit applications are submitted through e-Devlet.
Check the building rules and required documents before buying. Ordinary apartment buildings generally require unanimous approval by the owners; special conditions apply to certain property categories. A permit for a different apartment or a manager's promise does not replace checks for your property.
Prepare a monthly plan covering high and low seasons, your own holidays and possible vacancies. Deduct platform and management fees, cleaning, utilities, aidat, repairs, insurance and applicable taxes from the revenue.
If annual revenue is €10,000 and annual costs are €4,000, €6,000 remains. On a total investment of €120,000, that is 5% a year. The result depends on actual occupancy and a complete cost calculation; the example does not promise a return.
Compare separate models for seasonal and long-term rentals. We recommend assessing a property by its documents, working facilities and a clear management plan.
