Investment in Turkey: Mersin greets 2026 for who wants to discover untapped Cilicia
As 2025 ends we are looking at what it has brought us. This is no political website, so in terms of property investment in Turkey, 2025 has not been great. From a Mersin point of view, land investment was first in our books.
For example, investors wanted to offload their residential units in exchange for land in many of the sales we have concluded. Part-exchange however, is not really a favoured method of transaction. This is where your USD, Euro, GBP savings come in as a strong bargaining chip.
Investment in Turkey: What 2026 holds for savvy investors
Mersin took a huge step forward in 2025 with its new airport getting in the scene for airline companies. There are direct flights from UK, Germany and many other locations in Europe and the Middle East. The airport’s capacity is nowhere near full as yet.
If you are going to be willing to visit your portfolio from time to time, accessibility is very important. With the direct flights from London, US and Canada are closer to Mersin via London Stansted.
We are promoting the Silifke region for land investment, and introducing our dynamic investment model so you keep winning as you invest further. With the new airport operational, you can easily take a shuttle bus to Tasucu and this will take about 100-110 minutes.
When the Motorway’s Kızkalesi extension opens in Q4 2026 – Q1 2027, you will be able to reach Tasucu-Silifke in less than 60 minutes by your rental car.
How much do you need to start a dynamic investment in Mersin?
You can invest even with a Dollar these days. But as we recommend land investment, we should talk about real figures. If we talk about a 5.000 sqm raw agricultural land with no road connection we can say you need $75.000 within the 3-5 km to the coast range in Narlıkuyu. In the 5 to 8 km range you need just $35.000-50.000 to start your investment.
No need to say, the smaller the land the smaller the investment amount will be. If you find $35-75.000 range to high to begin with. We can start with 700-1.500 sqm raw land and spend just $15.000-20.000 in the 3-5 km from the coast range, and even under $10.000 further out from the sea.
Your next step for land investment in Silifke
We give A-Z services in Mersin, Adana and Antalya. Let us say you decided to invest $50.000 initially.
- We first find the land option/options which will fit in that bracket and negotiate a deal.
- Then you send us a POA from a Turkish Embassy/Consulate near you. This POA will be to buy and sell property on your behalf, when you authorise a deal at any time. It will also give us proxy status to apply for landscaping, road connection etc dynamic investment moves.
- Then we draw an outline of your plan for investment in Turkey. You pay as we move and when the dynamic investment reaches the status where you would like to sell, we start its marketing with a profitable price level. The earliest you can start selling is 3 months, however the ideal time is the following year, ideally 18 months after purchase.
If you would like more information as to how you could invest in Turkey, please call us without hesitation.
