Warning to would be property buyers

The procedure for buying property in Turkey is not the same as the UK and currently has a very bad reputation. If you are looking to buy property in Turkey it is important you understand the risks involved.

Many people have had and continue to have their dreams shattered through no fault of their own.

The industry is not regulated as it is in the UK - When things go wrong there is little or no help from the judiciary system.

Do not assume solicitors will represent your interests.

Do not assume if your builder or agent has offices in the UK or internationally you will be safe - Turkish laws apply.

Contracts are not legally enforceable in Turkey unless they have been notorised and the finished property is debt free when the Tapu (Title Deed) is transferred.

If you want to buy property in Turkey we urge you to do your homework - The links below have stories and information you should be aware of, READ, READ and READ SOME MORE, do web searches, ask questions, check reputations, but above all BE AWARE!!!
