Buying property is one of the fastest and most straightforward ways to obtain a residence permit in Turkey. It’s a legal, low-barrier option that allows foreigners not only to live in the country but also to invest in real estate with long-term financial value. Here's everything you need to know in 2025:
As of 2025, the Turkish government sets two valuation thresholds depending on the city:
| City Category | Minimum Property Value |
|---|---|
| Metropolitan areas (e.g., Alanya, Istanbul, Antalya) | $75,000 USD |
| Smaller cities & towns | $50,000 USD |
The property must have a valid title deed (TAPU) and a valuation report from a certified SPK-licensed appraiser. These ensure the property meets the legal criteria for residence permit application.
By purchasing qualifying residence permit real estate in Turkey, you become eligible to apply for a Short-Term Residence Permit (Kısa Dönem İkamet İzni) under the “foreign real estate ownership” category.
Valid for 1 year initially
(In practice, it’s renewable annually. In some cities, extensions up to 2 years may be granted at discretion.)
Processing time:
Usually between 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the city and documentation quality.
Family inclusion:
Your spouse and children under 18 can apply under the same property ownership, with no additional property purchase required.
Important distinction:
🏷️ This is not the same as Turkish Citizenship by Investment, which requires:
– Minimum $400,000 USD property purchase
– Holding the property for at least 3 years
– Separate legal and financial procedures
If you legally reside in Turkey for 8 consecutive years under a short-term permit (without significant interruption), you may become eligible to apply for a Long-Term Residence Permit (Süresiz İkamet İzni) — a status that offers permanent residency without renewal.
No social aid received in the past 3 years
Stable, documented income
Clean legal record
Valid health insurance
Proof of continuous residence over 8 years (via address and entry-exit records)
⚠️ Long-term residence does not automatically lead to citizenship, but it provides lifetime stay rights with very few restrictions.
Buying real estate for residency isn’t just a legal formality — it brings real lifestyle and financial advantages:
You own a home in a warm, affordable country with beach towns and city life
You invest in an appreciating asset with high rental yield potential
You secure legal residency, allowing year-round living and freedom of movement
Your family relocates with you, no additional property required!
With rising living costs and visa restrictions elsewhere, many foreigners find Turkey’s residence permit real estate model uniquely accessible. Our clients include:
Remote workers seeking Mediterranean lifestyle + EU time zone
Retired couples drawn to beach living and low healthcare costs
Young families wanting affordable private schools and safety
Entrepreneurs who want a base in a dynamic, trade-oriented market
