      What is the benefit of buying a flat in Istanbul for a foreigner?
      • Housing in Istanbul is better suited to the investment citizenship program than other regions of Turkey, as its cadastral value almost always corresponds to the market value.
      • There is consistently high rental demand in Istanbul, regardless of the season. Rental prices are on the rise, allowing owners to preserve and grow their capital.
      • Istanbul is Turkey's most developed region, in which half of the country's economy is concentrated. Living in Istanbul is prestigious - you can get a high-paying job in an international company, conduct business, and give a quality education to your children.
      How to buy and pay for a flat in Istanbul for foreigners in 2023?
      It is possible to pay for the transaction by international bank transfer by contract and invoice. It is also possible to pay with a Turkish account or cryptocurrency. All transfer options are discussed individually and lie solely within the legal framework.
      What documents do I need to buy a flat in Istanbul in 2023?
      You only need to bring your passport to buy a flat. You will need a Turkish tax number to pay taxes on the transaction; you can get one at any tax office or online in 15 minutes.
      Where is the best place to buy a flat in Istanbul for a residence permit and citizenship?
      While any neighborhood is suitable for citizenship, foreign property owners can only obtain a residence permit in some areas - there are 54 restricted neighborhoods in the city. Take a look at the map of closed districts in Istanbul. The main thing to look out for is the availability of rapid transit. Istanbul is a vast densely populated city. To avoid traffic jams, you should settle in areas where there is metro, Marmaray express trains or Metrobus stops nearby, such as Kägitkhan, Bakirköy, Üsküdar, Kartal, Maltepe.
      How much is the cheapest flat in Istanbul?
      According to Tranio as of February 2023, the most affordable housing offers in the primary market are in non-central areas, especially on the Asian side of the city. A small studio flat for 146-180 thousand dollars can be found in Beylikdüzü, Esenyurt, Bagcılar, Kartal, Kägitkhan and Maltepe.

      Buyers' testimonials

      • This is the third time I’ve bought a property with Tranio's help. This time, we needed a back-up plan, a port in the storm, so to speak. We didn’t dare to choose Dubai, because it just didn’t look like a family nest in our opinion. As for Turkey, our doubts disappeared as soon as we arrived in Istanbul. Both the choice of an apartment and the deal itself — everything was carried out professionally and humane, as always. Documents for passports for 6 people were collected and submitted quickly.

      • I sincerely thank Tranio’s Istanbul managers: they have accomplished the impossible. There was only one complex that I liked without reserve, no questions asked. But while I hesitated, apartments suitable for my budget were sold out. Yulia miraculously found a person who sold an apartment in that complex on assignment. I had a lawyer to submit documents for my passport in my stead. Now I'm waiting for the result in 4 months.

      • I bought a house in Alanya for 520,000 dollars through acquaintances. As it turned out, its cadastral value was about 105,000 dollars and I had to get at least 295,000 more to qualify for a passport. I contacted Tranio. They found me an apartment in Istanbul for 310,000 dollars. I applied for a passport. While I’m waiting for citizenship, I have obtained a residence permit and live in Alanya. I’m renting out an Istanbul apartment.

      • We decided to move to Istanbul in May, when there was already talk about raising the threshold for citizenship by investment. We wouldn’t be able to afford it for 400,000 dollars. Thank you for organising everything quickly and in the nick of time for 250,000. Yulia met us in Istanbul, we found an apartment over the weekend, and on Monday we signed the contract. We live in our new apartment and will get our passports soon.
