Expats Bought a Home in Antalya Turkey (Turkiye) Foreign Investment in Lara Beach

[@cookmaster3626]

Hi. That was a such a great show on WNJ -YT channel. Totally surprised with the High end quality home at such a low price. So for about $150K (cost + furnishings) you have a move in ready place near the beach and amenities. To top it all the restaurant food price was ridiculously affordable ( of course speaking from US perspective and not to offend the locals). Thanks for enlightening us with such valuable information and content showing what is available out there. Great Job WNJ. Our Best wishes to the couple with their new home and life in Turkey. Looks like I see you guys going for the Turkish dream?

This was a phenomenally helpful video for any expat looking to buy a property in Turkey . Great job 👍.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

We’re really glad you enjoyed it 😊👍

[@ryangreen9770]

We really appreciate the great videos. This is information you can’t find when you research a potential country to relocate to. Thank you and keep them coming. 🙏

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Thanks 😊 we are glad you find the information valuable.

[@G3Travels]

We love Turkey and are planning to look for properties either in Istanbul or Antalya region in June.. This video in particular was quite helpful.. It was interesting to know that you pay taxes on the amount that the seller reports to the government.. Good to know that especially if you are trying to get citizenship by investment.. Looking forward to more videos! 👍

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Thanks we appreciate your watching 😁

[@ohcaptainmy]

The 18% is VAT (Value Added Tax) and is not the realtor's income tax. So it's normal that you pay it as that is going to be an invoiced expenditure in return for a charged service.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Thanks for that information

[@tylerw1892]

That's a great deal for a place that they can also rent out. Antalya is a wonderful area as well.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

We are loving this area. 😁

[@tylerwarker4295]

Check out Cirali. Low key area. Very relaxing and beautiful

[@Kawa.0b]

Hoşgeldiniz

[@monicalopes4073]

I had so much fun in Istanbul Turkey 🇹🇷 thanks again for your videos, it made so easy for us. The only thing is that my son said he couldn’t find any Turkey 🦃😀😂🇹🇷

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

That’s great, glad you enjoyed your visit 😁

[@Behnood-the-video-editor]

[@viajerozz]

Great insight, thanks! I also wonder what they are renting their other properties for?

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

I’ll have to let the respond.

[@matsebarumi6894]

Warren & Julie, when will you move to Turkey?

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

We will spend considerable time here, but we have a lot of world to visit still ♥️🇹🇷

[@Reza16888]

I love the point that Kara brought up at the end of this video. She said on the deed, the seller shows a lesser sale price, so the seller pays less tax. This immediately tells me the real estate dealing system is a crooked system. Another problem that I have observed about buying or selling a real estate in Turkey is that they don't have an escrow system. If you want to buy a property, the seller wants to see the money in his/her bank account, before signing the deed to be transferred under the buyer's name. This is very risky. What if the seller does not even signs the deed transfer documents? What if the deed is a fake deed? Overall, I think when it comes down to buying/selling properties in Turkey, their system is a stone age system; they are way behind and they leave a lot of room for problems. In fact, I have heard that in order to go around this kind of problems, the buyer brings suitcase of cash to the deed office, and even they have some money counting services. That's right, you read correctly. There are some people that the buyer or the seller hire to count the huge amount of cash, for a fee. I hope that the Turkish government decides to move to the 21st century and does something about this huge problem.

You must have one window office in Antalya with different languages speaking staff so we can invest in real estate in Turkeyi . It is very hard for us to runs from one office(Tapu) to another TRC ( Office ) and to third (eDevelt) office. If we ask for help from Turk, he ask money.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Government offices and paperwork in many countries is extremely frustrating and time consuming.

[@richardcartier6193]

Hi guys is there such a thing as bank repossession? Or an auction list?

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Not that I’m aware of, most homes are cash purchases.

[@ohgallen]

Do they know it is illegal in Turkey to do a short term rent? I understand you can only do it via an agent

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Please clarify your statements, are you talking about airbnb? We use Airbnb all the time in Turkey.

[@stooraiayazi2900]

Thank you so much for this video, so much great information. We are looking to move in this coming winter. Please if you could provide the real estate agent contact info.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Please check out the video description 👍

[@martint251]

I think to do business such as buying a property in turkey you should listen twice but talk once . Don’t get excited and gone by colourful pictures …

[@syedali-qg3nc]

What is the price of the house now as Turkish Lira falling.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Most are also priced in euros. We have not seen the most recent real estate. We left in late March but are returning in October.

[@rummansaeed5277]

Nice video. What would be estimated rent per month for such house? Thanks

[@nomorenews]

400 usd my guess

[@karadearmon9528]

We were told by our realtor it would rent fully furnished for 7000 turkish lira. At the time she told us that the usd equivalent was $518.

[@WarrenJulieTravel]

Thanks, looks like you got the answer already 😁

[@ritagrechi2663]

[@WahidKhawaja]

They paid too much for this sort of property.

[@NULifeRetiringAbroad]

What would be the right price for this apartment in your opinion?

[@nomorenews]

What should be the right price in usd ,not tl?

[@NULifeRetiringAbroad]

@@nomorenews Doesn't matter TL or USD. What is the right price you'd say? It would be good to know if or how much they have overpaid.

[@braveheart8318]

@@NULifeRetiringAbroad the best thing is to rent a place and live for a year or two, learning some language, understanding the culture and market before buying anything anywhere. I'm not sure about the price of this particular property. Prices depends on many factors; the city, distance from down town, road networks, neighbourhood, street, building quality, amenities, neighbouring areas, climate etc. But in general foreigners coming from US and west pay more than the locals.

Disagree with your statement without providing context. Our experience fro seeing other properties in our house hunting video says they were on the mark for location.
