What is the buying process in Turkey?
Normally a reservation fee is left with the estate agent to take the property in Turkey off the market, whilst the solicitor is checking the Title Deeds. At this stage the contract is drawn between he seller and the purchaser, which determines the payment terms, the date of completion and terms and conditions of sale. When the solicitor is satisfied with the documents produced and is checked, both parties sign the contract and the deposit is paid. You would also need to apply for the permission to buy from the government and several security checks will be done. This is normally done by a developer or a solicitor. It is a pure formality. The rest is done a by a solicitor.
