10.1 |
Can
you have a building constructed on the land you
own? |
To have a building
constructed on your land, you have to take permission
from local official authorities and the engineering
blue-prints of the building have to be in line with
the official Construction Plans.
There are lots
of Turkish companies specialised in construction and
contracting services. You can also utilise architecture
and civil engineering bureaus to construct your building.
You are advised
to contact either the Turkish Contractors Association
(www.tmb.org.tr)
which has lots of world-wide reputable construction
and property development companies or its members. Please
note that the Association’s member companies use
thousands of sub-contracting companies in Turkey. Hence,
you can ask those member companies for the lists of
the sub-contractors as well.

How
can refurbishment be carried out? |
There exist many quality refurbishment/decoration
service companies in Turkey, whose prices are substantially
lower than those in any European country.

Do
tenants in Turkey prefer furnished or unfurnished
properties? |
If
you plan to rent out your property, it is worth understanding
the tenancy propensities in Turkey.
In tourism locations, districts close to main business
centres or zones preferred by foreigners, most tenants
prefer furnished properties. On the other hand, in
other locations where Turkish families are intensive
generally unfurnished houses are preferred.
