After a lot of consideration we have decided we would like to purchase a property in Turkey. Is there anyone that has first hand knowledge that can recommend credible estate agents and solicitors who are extremely good to work with and will guide us through the process. I have read too many horror stories of people getting ripped off by unscrupulous agents/builders. What we are looking for is an apartment to be used purely as an investment, taking advantage of capital growth and rental income. As yet we have no plans to move out there. I would also welcome suggestions on best area/s to invest in. Having researched Dubai as a possible location I feel Turkey has more to offer and is a 'safer' bet long term. I may of course be wrong. Any useful website suggestions would be welcome also. I dont want to go plundering into anything without doing a great deal of research and hearing from people who have experienced the process first hand. Your comments would be most welcome.
I purchased in Turkey last year and after loads of research and plenty of false starts found a fantastic local estate agent who sold me a 3 bed villa with amazing sea veiws for 32k!

Thanks for responses guys. Mr BC, I tried to contact you (from another forum) but couldn't make contact on your e mail address! However made contact with an agent who was in the UK from Turkey yesterday and purchased two x 4 bed 3 bath 3 story villas in kussadisi. Extermely helpful, and the whole process was quite painless.

My name is Ruth May (originally from Dublin, Ireland) and have a real estate agency in Alanya on the Turkish Riviera and would be very happy to guide you through the step by step process of buying here as Alanya is a very popular resort for investment buying because you can make at least 25-30% on your capital in 6 months. My company can guide you from start to finish and you can also buy off-plan which means you can purchase at the price stated at the start of building and your property is increasing in value day to day.
Please contact me for further information.
