MM Real EstateTürkiye

Istanbul · Antalya · Alanya · Mersin

Live by the sea. Invest in a city that grows.

Coastal apartments in Türkiye from €165,000. Rental yields up to 9 %, prices that rose 33 % in Istanbul in one year, and citizenship for the whole family from $400,000. Two hours’ flight from Sarajevo.

Imagine a morning that starts with a view of the sea.

Not just an investment. Your second home, your holiday, your rental income and your plan for the future – in one place.

Why Türkiye – and why now

Emotion brings you to the coast. Numbers keep you there. Here are the numbers.

1.76m

home sales in 2025 (+13.6 %)

The most liquid property market between Vienna and Dubai. When you sell, there is someone to sell to.

+33.5%

price growth in Istanbul, 2025

Prices per m² in Istanbul, Antalya and Mersin rose 26–34 % a year (CBRT).

8.2%

gross rental yield, Istanbul

Up to 9–10 % in districts of Mersin and Antalya. Rents rose 33 % in 2025.

1755$

per m² in Istanbul – Vienna ≈ $6,500

Seafront new-builds at the price of a European suburb.

64m

tourists in 2025 – 4th in the world

$65.2 bn of revenue. Coastal markets live on it – and so does your rental apartment.

400000$

in property = Turkish citizenship

For spouse and children, passport in 3–6 months, no residence requirement.

Three things nobody in sales tells you. We do.

Inflation and the lira

Inflation is 31.5 % (Feb 2026) and real prices in lira are falling. Think in euros/dollars and insist on hard-currency contracts.

The wrong city for the wrong goal

Coastal cities give seasonal rent and slower liquidity; Istanbul gives steadier tenancy. The goal picks the city, not the other way round.

Developer and paperwork

Title deed, building and occupancy permits, seismic report and the developer’s track record – no purchase without these checks. We run them before you do.

What do you want from your property?

Pick a goal – the page will highlight the cities and projects that fit it.

Four coasts. Four different stories.

Each city sells a different life – and a different return. Choose yours.

Questions you ask before buying

Can a citizen of Bosnia buy property in Türkiye in their own name?

Yes. Individuals from Bosnia and the region buy without special permits, with a tax number and a property appraisal. Restrictions apply only in military zones and for agricultural land.

How is payment made and in which currency?

For new-builds the price is usually in euros or dollars, paid by bank transfer. Instalment plans (down payment + 12–24 months) are common with the developers we represent.

Can I obtain citizenship by buying?

Yes, with one or more properties appraised at a minimum of $400,000, paid through a bank and annotated as non-transferable for 3 years. Spouse and children under 18 are included.

What about rental income – who manages it?

We offer rental management through partners in Istanbul and Antalya: listing, tenant selection, collection, maintenance. Cost 8–15 % of rent.

How long does the whole process take?

From reservation to title deed registration: 2–6 weeks for completed units. Citizenship: 3–6 months after registration.

How do I exit the investment?

Through resale on the domestic market (99 % of turnover) or to foreigners; we also handle resales. Sale after 5 years is exempt from capital gains tax.
