Who can invest in land for sale in Turkey?

If you have already got Turkish citizenship, you can buy land without any problems.

This section is for foreign investors. There are many zoning types but here, we will focus on agricultural land and zoned land plots as these are the most popular.

1. Agricultural Land for sale in Turkey is plenty.

We have filtered desirable locations where prices are also attractive so rest assured, we will only be looking at good options. In Narlıkuyu for example, there are agricultural land options starting from just $25.000. The rule to buy agricultural land is to work it. We will have 2 years to act on your claim and show authorities we have not just kept the land empty. Of course you need a local Turkish proxy, and that is us.

Let us say you invested $30.000 initially. We apply for the excavation and landscaping permits and create a road connection, and level the land either to place a bungalow or create a lemon garden. Either way we will have made your property much more desirable for a bigger set of local buyers. This costs from $4.000 to 6.000 for a small investment of $30.000. We can then put your property on the market and look for buyers to pay us a minimum of $45.000-50.000 in the first 6 weeks, and higher if we keep the property for a 1-2 year period.

2. Zoned Land for sale in Turkey

The rule changes to applying for a building lincense here. The period is again 2 years and a local Turkish proxy is required.

Let us say you have invested $150.000 on a 600 sqm plot. We will design and license a home for this plot, then apply for the building license and start construction. Construction of a building less than 500 sqm takes about 3-5 months, and we can start marketing your property while we are building it. Let us say the home will be 200 sqm. This costs almost $145.000. You will pay 40% up front and the rest in 5 instalments. We will probably be able to sell in the 3rd month of construction for about $400.000. Your gross profit will be about $105.000, after fees and taxes you can have a healthy 30-35% return on your investment in 3 months.
