The global economic downturn had led to a huge shift in attitude towards overseas property investment, with many choosing to hold off until economies show signs of improvement. However, the Turkish property market seems to have defied this trend, continuing to flourish despite the negative impact felt by other countries. A number of possible reasons for this have been indentified.

Turkey’s economic and political circumstances have undoubtedly contributed to the country’s growing property market. Mediterranean destinations once popular with tourists and property investors have been somewhat shunned as people consider alternative non-eurozone locations, where they’ll get more for their pound. Turkey’s tourism has benefitted significantly from this change, and investors have turned their attention accordingly.

Turkey’s application to the EU has also contributed to increased confidence in stability of the country’s economy. With property investors taking advantage of new government laws surrounding foreign property ownership as they make investment decisions; Turkey is starting to seem like the obvious choice.

Cheap flights lead to repeat visits, so Turkey has also seen the advantages of numerous budget airline routes to and from UK airports. This increased accessibility ensures continued rental income throughout the year – and when tourists arrive in Turkey, the low cost of living means they can eat, drink, shop and visit attractions without breaking the bank!

With such a wide range of destinations – cities like Istanbul and coastal resorts that offer visitors the opportunity to completely relax, as well as a unique blend of European and Asian cultures, there are also plenty of reasons for visitors to return again and again to Turkey, each time sampling the delights of a new part of the country. From Istanbul to Bodrum, Fethiye and Antalya, the Turkish tourism industry has wide appeal and caters to a variety of holiday maker’s requirements.

All this, coupled with an enviable Mediterranean climate – with almost year-round sunshine and scorching temperatures – there’s every reason for tourists to hold such high regard for Turkey…and where the tourists go, the property investors will follow as they cash in on rental opportunities. Flats, apartments, villas and traditional houses available to foreign investors mean that prices suit a range of budgets.

All of the factors described above serve to illustrate the varied reasons that demand for property in Turkey continues to rise despite a troubled global economy. If you’re considering overseas property investment, there’s huge potential across the country – whether you’re looking for a holiday home to make frequent trips to throughout the year, or if you’d like somewhere to provide you with an ongoing additional income.

Attracted to the superb weather (Turkey averages around 300 days of sunshine each year) and stunning beaches, many overseas tourists have chosen to holiday in Turkey year after year. Indeed a large number of these visitors have now chosen to make Turkey their permanent home.

As in so many popular tourist destinations, there has been an increasing demand for property in Turkey in recent years, particularly within the popular tourist destinations such as Istanbul and the Mediterranean and Aegean resorts on the southern and western coasts. In fact, the real estate markets in many of these destinations have seen returns averaging 15 – 20% in recent years.

Despite its extensive history, Turkey is still a developing market for the travel industry, and only in recent years have the low cost airlines started to open up the budget routes which have resulted in the considerable increases in tourist numbers. Such is the increase in tourist demand that a number of new airports, such as the one at Dalaman, have been opened in recent years, solely to cater for the increased levels of overseas visitors to the region.

The fact that the tourist industry is able to rely heavily on a high percentage of returning visitors is undoubtedly one of the key considerations for investors choosing to purchase property in Turkey. Such is the growth in tourism in the region, that today Turkey has become one of the most popular tourist destinations, with increasing numbers of visitors from the major Russian and European travel markets. Given the increasing cost of the traditional Euro zone destinations such as Spain and Italy, it is likely that this trend will continue for the foreseeable future.

At a federal level, the Turkish government has placed considerable emphasis on foreign direct investment, and efforts to limit the level of prohibitive legislation on overseas companies have undoubtedly started to yield benefits. This legislative drawback, coupled with substantial marketing programs overseas, has resulted in an increasing number of companies looking to relocate offices and staff to Turkey.

The fact that Turkey is still a developing market is still acknowledged within the prices in its real estate market, and today property in Turkey represents excellent value for money, both for investors and people looking for a second home. This lower price of real estate, coupled with the low cost of living and lower taxes ensure that investing in property in Turkey is an attractive long term proposition.
