Turkey has become a major destination for investors and those who want to buy real estate from all countries of the world , as Arab investors have increased interest in heading towards Turkey with a goal of investment or stability , and the Turkish market continues to attract foreign investors month after month and year after year , especially since real estate investment in Turkey has witnessed a comprehensive renaissance at all levels in recent years . This was accompanied by the issuance of a package of laws that attract foreign investors to its various sectors .

The real estate sector in Turkey , which has received a large share of the economic renaissance , has become the focus of attention of investors from all over the world . Besides , the Turkish real estate sector has received the largest share of the laws that encourage investment . Perhaps the most important one is tax cuts , and granting Turkish citizenship in exchange for a real estate investment of $ 250.000 .

With the increase in demand for buying Turkish real estate by foreign nationalities , we face the following question : What is the reason for some nationalities going to buy real estate in Turkey ?

The successive statistics of the Turkish Statistics Department resulted in various rankings about the number of foreign investors who chose to buy real estate in Turkey during the recent period , which showed an increasing demand from a number of specific nationalities , and the share of Russian citizenship was in a clear rise , as the Russians became among the five most foreign nationalities owning real estate in Turkey in 2019 .

According to the statistical information of the General Directorate of Land Registry and Real Estate Survey , the Iraqis came first in terms of sales of Turkish real estate to foreigners , followed by Iranians , then the English , then the Germans , then the Russians , then the Saudis .

According to the Turkish Statistical Institute ( TurkStat ) , the number of homes sold to foreigners during the past 2019 year was approximately 45.500 , of which the Russians had a share of 2.893 .

Turkey is also the first destination for Russian tourists , as Russian citizens ranked first in 2019 in the number of foreign tourists in Turkey , with more than 7 million Russian tourists out of 51 million foreign tourists .

Experts say that the Russians previously preferred to buy real estate in Spain , Bulgaria and Italy , but their interest in these countries decreased , and their tendency to buy real estate in Turkey became more .

 

 What are the reasons for the increasing demand of the Russians to buy real estate in Turkey ? 

  1. Real estate prices in Turkey are low compared to those in European countries .
  2. Turkey's warm climate , compared to Russia's very cold .
  3. Turkey is a popular destination for Russian tourists , due to the low cost of airline tickets to it from all Russian cities , and the failure to request a visa from Russian citizens upon entering Turkey .
  4. Low real estate prices in Turkey because of the change in the exchange rate of the Turkish lira against foreign currencies .
  5. Low cost of living and taxes compared to the well-being and services available .
  6. High-end urban models within Turkish real estate , especially in apartment complexes , or in apartments with charming sea views .
  7. The desire to obtain Turkish citizenship and benefit from its advantages , as the Turkish passport allows entry-free visa to several important countries , with the possibility of obtaining an American investor visa category E2 .
