TURKISH PASSPORT FOR INVESTMENT
From the beginning of May 2012 until the end of February 2024, non-residents have purchased 384,519 properties in Turkey, Turkish Minute reported, citing data from Cumhuriyet newspaper.
According to the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat) - since 2019, 39,172 properties in Turkey have been purchased by citizens of CIS countries. They are followed by Iranians (35,573 properties) and Iraqis (31,319 properties).
According to statistics, the volume of real estate sales to foreigners in 2023 decreased by 48.1% compared to 2022, then the increase in transactions reached 35,005 units. This is the lowest figure since 2017. The proportion of real estate sales to foreigners, which was 4.5% in 2022, fell to 2.9% in 2023, this is due to the increase in dollar appreciation, earthquakes that have passed, raising the investment threshold.
From mid-2022, the investment threshold is raised from $250,000 to $400,000. Since the end of last year, it has been "rumored" that it will be raised again soon to $600,000 in 2024, but there is no official confirmation of this information yet.
From October 2023, a temporary residence permit based on the purchase of real estate can only be obtained if the property is purchased for at least $200,000 (instead of the previous $75,000).
