Purchase
Can foreigners buy residential property in Istanbul?

Yes, foreigners are allowed to buy residential property in Istanbul, Turkey. Turkey has opened up its real estate market to foreign investors, and there are no restrictions on foreign nationals purchasing property, including residential real estate.

In 2012, the reciprocity principle was lifted for many countries, allowing citizens of those countries to buy property in Turkey without requiring Turkish citizens to have the same privilege in their home countries.

However, there are certain restrictions on the acquisition of property in specific areas such as military zones, and foreigners should check with the relevant authorities and their legal advisors before making a purchase. It's also advisable to work with a local real estate agent and legal professionals to navigate the process smoothly and ensure compliance with all regulations.
