  First up, then down  Last couple of years have been quite turbulent for the real estate markets in Turkey and Alanya. A lot of different topics have been on the agenda and in this blog post we will try to give an overview of the most discussed topics as well as the current status of the market.   Current market status The first part of the year the market started on a high note before coming to an almost complete stop in terms of sales. Many like to explain the lack of sales with simple explanations that fit into their own agenda, be it a political, financial, business or private agenda. The correct explanation is as always not that black and white, and the current situation on the real estate market is not due to just one event, but a mix of several circumstances.   Lets take a brief look at them here.   The perfect storm In 2022 we saw the perfect storm on the real estate market fuelled by the unfortunate events in Ukraine, Russians deciding to leave their c...

  There are many museums and historical artefacts in the Antalya region. You know many of them.  However, the most interesting of them is the underwater museum in Side.   This museum is 20 metres deep in the sea and is the first and only underwater museum in Turkey.  Side Underwater Museum, a collection of 117 pieces made by Turkish sculptors, can be seen closely by diving into the sea.  Certified divers generally like the Poseidon statue , which is the largest statue with a height of 3.5 metres and a weight of 5 tons. The sculptures in the museum are made of materials compatible with underwater and are manufactured in a way that does not harm sea creatures. There are 3 stages for diving in the museum.  1st stage is between 3-8 metres and anyone can dive for this stage. The 2nd and 3rd stages are between 8-20 metres deep and you need to get a professional diving certificate to dive in these stages.  For more information, we leave the phone number of t...

Hello everyone, Today we will talk about a sensitive issue, forest fires. With the increase in temperatures in the summer months the forest areas are very dry and often forest fires occur. Since Alanya is one of the regions with the highest temperature in Turkey, we experience forest fires in the region every year. Forest fires can be caused by many natural causes such as high temperature, lightning strikes and so on. However, the most common causes of forest fires today are uncontrolled burning, smoking and agricultural work. In other words, forest fires that are started by humans.   Fire Fighting Aircraft in Turkey When forest fires need to be extinguished, ground interventions are often insufficient. That is why firefighting airplanes and helicopters are very important for all countries. Turkey has 2 unmanned aerial vehicles, 3 airplanes, 1 unmanned helicopter and 38 helicopters for aerial firefighting. When a fire is reported, these helicopters and planes take off from their b...

For those of you following the trends of the real estate market in Alanya you have seen how the curve has been only upward over the last couple of years. During the last quarter of 2022 the market peaked created by a high demand combined with a shortage of properties to sell. Hence properties that were previously sold at around 75.000 Euro would now sell at 179.000 Euro. In other words, for some properties prices went up almost 150%. Since then, the market has slowed down and prices have dropped slightly since the absolute peak around October 2022. But still we are at a level that doubles the prices over the last couple of years. Currently there is no shortage of properties in the market and the demand has settled back into a more normal level. This means that standard key points are back in play and that the market currently is just as much sellers as buyers market. As a seller you there for again need to pay attention to the following key points:   Pricing Properties above market...

A lot has been going on in Alanya over the last couple of years, and for a long period seller was king and the market belonged fully to the sellers.   Those times are over and the buyers have again gained a good position in the market, leaving us with a market dominated equally between seller and buyer.   So for those who are potential buyers, here are our recommendations for key points that you should definitely keep an eye on:   Pricing   Some sellers still believe that they can sell for the same price as last year when the market peaked. Be careful that you buy at market price, not at a overprice based on last years market.   Off plan vs ready build   The upward trend has increased the number of new constructions significantly. Many of these constructions are done by newly established constructors. When choosing a off plan property please only do so in close collaboration with a market professional that can clearly point out the risks related to this. Do...
