Property Search & Shortlisting
We curate vetted listings that match your budget, location preference, and investment goal — whether residency, citizenship, or yield.
Due Diligence & Legal Check
Our in-house legal team checks title deeds (TAPU), zoning, encumbrances, and military clearance before you commit.
Offer & Price Negotiation
We negotiate on your behalf. Turkish property markets are negotiable — our experience saves clients 5–15% on average.
Contract & Notary
We prepare the purchase contract, handle notarised translation, and manage the TKGM (Land Registry) transfer appointment.
Payment & TAPU Transfer
Funds transferred via Turkish bank account. TAPU issued in your name. We confirm citizenship or residency eligibility simultaneously.
Post-Purchase Setup
Subscribe utilities, apply for residency or citizenship, set up property management if needed. We stay with you after handover.
Why use Ikamet and not a local agent?
In-house legal team
Local agents don't check title deed encumbrances or zoning restrictions. Our lawyers do — before you sign anything.
Foreign buyer specialists
We understand the specific paperwork foreigners face: military clearance, currency transfer rules, citizenship eligibility checks.
Residency & citizenship bundled
Most agents stop at the TAPU. Ikamet continues with your permit or citizenship application — no handoff, no confusion.
English-language throughout
All contracts, correspondence, and documents explained in English. No surprises at the notary table.
Typical buyer costs
Ikamet prepares a full cost breakdown before you commit to any purchase.
