The main purpose of foreigners buying property in Turkey is investment purposes. A person buys a house to use as a holiday home, or to sell for a profit. A foreigner may use their property as collateral for a bank loan, and use the funds to pay off other debts. Another reason why a foreigner would want to buy land is to build houses for sale or for rent.
Many investors also buy land for future commercial development purposes. The process of buying land and building homes is very different in the United States and Canada than in Turkey. In the United States and Canada, one usually buys Land for sale in Turkey on credit. This means that a seller agrees to sell you the land, and you agree to buy it after a certain amount of time has passed.
The seller sends a bill for the land purchase to you, and the amount of the bill depends on how much you pay. If you pay the full amount of the bill before you have completed construction of the property, the seller will usually charge you a penalty for early payment. Land can be purchased in other ways as well.
For example, one can contact real estate agents who specialize in selling property, or one can ask friends, family, or colleagues who own property, if they would be willing to sell it to you. One may even be able to buy the land on the open market.
