Frequently Asked Questions
Can Turkish citizens buy property in the UK?
Do we have to come to the UK to buy property?
Yes, you can buy property even if you have no connection to the UK.
No, there is no legal obligation. If you wish, after choosing your home via video call, you can complete all transactions remotely by giving power of attorney to your lawyer. In this case, the city you want to invest in, the houses and the neighborhood where the houses are located will be introduced to you in detail via video calls and you can proceed with the process safely.
How long does it take to complete the title deed transfer?
The title deed transfer process is usually completed within 3 to 6 months. During this period, the lawyer who carries out the transactions on your behalf examines many documents in detail and performs the necessary legal checks.
One of the most important advantages is that the house price is paid at the end of the process. Payment is not made until all checks are completed; this way, your money is safe and the transaction process is transparent.
Can I buy real estate without a lawyer?
No. Title deed transfer transactions are carried out only by the lawyers of the buyer and seller parties.
Is it necessary to show the source of money when buying a house?
Yes. You must clearly document that the money you will use to purchase real estate was obtained through legal means.
Can Turkish citizens get a mortgage?
Yes, they can. If you are buying a house to rent out, some UK banks and mortgage companies can provide loans to such buyers.
In investment purchases, it is generally possible to use a loan between 50% and 75% of the value of the house. Since the mortgage installments of your house will be fully covered by the rental income of your house, it is quite easy to grow your portfolio in the UK compared to Türkiye. If you wish, you can have a free preliminary meeting with our mortgage consultant.
What is the payback period for investment in the UK?
When evaluated in terms of net rental income, a return period of 15 years is considered quite good. However, in houses with short-term rental permits (for example, in rentals made through Airbnb) or in assisted living models where the state provides a rental guarantee, this period can be reduced to 10 years.
Can we get a residence visa if we invest in real estate in the UK?
The UK government does not provide direct residency or citizenship opportunities through property purchases. However, there are some opportunities for high-value purchases. You can contact us for detailed information.
