Property Investment in Turkey
Property investment in Turkey is quite straightforward. There are 2 ways to own land for property development. The first is paying cash up front. The second is less financially straining: acquiring ownership of the land against units built. The second method is the most preferred by both investors and construction companies in Turkey as it does not require any initial funds against the ownership of the land. Any funds needed are for the construction expenses of the development on the land, subsequently alleviating the burden of fronting the purchase price of the land.
HOW DOES THIS WORK
A land owner offers his/her plot for property development instead of trying to sell it for cash to a construction company. This method also becomes more attractive for the land owner as he/she will receive units built on their plot, and when the land owner decides that he/she wants to sell the units that are left for them on the plot, will, in most cases, likely receive more money than if they were to sell the land for current market value. Or they simply put their share of the units built up for rent, creating a great source of positive cash flow.
A contract is drawn up between the construction company and the land owner.
Once both parties agree on the terms of the contract, a property development company takes up the offer to build on the land owner’s plot. A less than 50% share of constructed units eventually belongs to the land owner, and the remaining units belong to the construction company. Normally the construction company will sell the units that they acquire off this deal, to property buyers.
How is the ownership of the land/units built for the construction company get acquired?
At different stages during the construction of the properties, deeds are issued to the construction company by the land owner. Units are allowed to be sold to property buyers even before the construction company acquires the deeds for the units. The cost of the units built by the construction company for the land owner becomes the cost of the land for the units that the construction company eventually owns. It basically means that the ownership of land for the builder becomes payments in installments over a agreed period of time between the two parties. This method alleviates the burden of having to front the cash by the builder; for the land, before they begin building, and the funds by the builder are used to pay for all building materials, manpower, taxes, permits, etc.
