Property in Turkey is highly attractive to international property investors who can see good potential for solid return on investment.
In a location such as Turkey, with stunning natural assets, and imminent membership of the EU, the country has generated much interest. EU membership traditionally generates large increases in property values and investors are keen to buy property in the prime locations whilst prices are still low.
With the huge growth in tourism and already 25 million visitors per annum (up from 14 million in 2004) "Buy to Let" investors in Turkey enjoy huge rental demand for accommodation and this demand is set to grow.
