Turkey is a popular destination for foreign investors, and one of the most popular ways to invest in Turkey is through real estate. In fact, the Turkish government has a program that allows foreigners to acquire Turkish citizenship by investing in real estate.

To be eligible for the Turkish citizenship by investment program, you must purchase a property worth at least $400,000. The property must be located in Turkey and must be used as a primary residence. You must also hold the property for at least three years. Once you have purchased the property, you can apply for Turkish citizenship. The application process is relatively simple and can be completed in a few months.

In addition to the property purchase, there are a few other requirements that you must meet in order to qualify for Turkish citizenship. You must be at least 18 years old, you must have a clean criminal record, and you must be able to prove that you have sufficient income to support yourself and your family.

If you meet all of the requirements, you will be granted Turkish citizenship. This will give you the right to live, work, and study in Turkey, and it will also allow you to travel freely within the Schengen Zone.

Benefits of Acquiring Turkish Citizenship

There are many benefits to acquiring Turkish citizenship. Some of the benefits include:

  • The right to live, work, and study in Turkey
  • The right to travel freely within the Schengen Zone
  • The right to pass on Turkish citizenship to your children
  • The right to own property in Turkey
  • The right to vote in Turkish elections

How to Buy Real Estate in Turkey

If you are interested in buying real estate in Turkey, there are a few things that you need to do. First, you will need to find a real estate agent who can help you find a property that meets your needs. You can find a real estate agent by searching online or by asking your friends and family for recommendations.

Once you have found a real estate agent, you will need to provide them with some basic information about yourself, such as your name, address, and contact information. You will also need to provide them with a copy of your passport.

The real estate agent will then help you find a property that meets your needs and budget. Once you have found a property that you are interested in, you will need to make an offer. The real estate agent will then negotiate the price on your behalf. If your offer is accepted, you will need to sign a contract and pay a deposit. The deposit is usually 10% of the purchase price. Once the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, you will need to apply for a Turkish residence permit. You can apply for a residence permit at the Turkish embassy or consulate in your home country.

Once you have a Turkish residence permit, you will be able to move to Turkey and start living in your new home.

Acquiring Turkish citizenship through real estate investment is a great way to gain access to the many benefits that Turkey has to offer. If you are interested in learning more about this program, please contact us. Our professional advisors will help you to make the best decision.
