Turkish properties in the sun...........iyi aksamlar from Ishik

Hello and welcome Ishik 

Merhaba Ishak

I too am new to the forum.

Yes, Turkey is stunning whether you are in cosmpolitan Istanbul, experiencing the stunning coastline along the Turquoise Coast or have headed east towards areas like Diyarkabir or Lake Van (sorry I sound like a tourist brochure).

Unfortunately there are also some truly awful resort areas, which are built up and highly commercialised, catering mainly for western tourists and expat communities. This is where much of the cheaper property.

Buying property in Turkey can be quite complicated and when buying abroad it's always best to work with a reputable agency.

In recent years, many of the tourism areas and property markets in Turkey have really struggled. People who have bought in purpose built developments and indvidual villas a few years back are really struggling to sell with such a glut of new property on the market.

If I am going to the Western Coast I would probably prefer to be in one of the smaller towns like Datca or Gumusuluk - although Bodrum is fun when you want something more lively.
