Turkey’s real estate market attracts buyers with unique opportunities to own restored Ottoman-era homes or stone villas in regions like Cappadocia and Antalya. These properties blend cultural heritage with modern appeal, but renovations often face strict preservation laws and bureaucratic hurdles.
Foreign buyers must navigate title deed checks (TAPU), zoning restrictions, and VAT (18%) on new builds. Coastal areas offer tourism-driven rental potential, while Istanbul’s historic districts appeal to niche buyers. Agencies like Yektahomes.com track such listings, but independent legal review is advised to avoid disputes over heritage compliance.
