GENERAL PROPERTY SELL/BUY PROCEDURE
|
|
Compared to many European countries, the procedure of
buying/selling a house is quite simple in Turkey. The transfer
of the property is only made by the Land Registry Office.
|
 |
The costs are as follows:
- 3% on the ‘declared’ value of the property to be paid
to the government (e.g.: if declaration of buying price is
20.000.- € than the fee is 600.- €)
- Land registry office fee
(approximately 40.-€ for each transaction)
- Passport translation (30.-€)
- Permission application fee to be paid to
Tapu & Cadastre Office (50.- €)
- Translator fee (50.-€- it is compulsory to
have a translator at the stage of transaction)
In case the pre-sales agreement is asked to be notarised,
than approximately 1% of the selling price of the property
has to be paid by the buyer to the notary.
Additional Costs: These transfers are done after the Tapu is transferred to the name of the buyer
Electricity register transfer for the house : Approximately 40.-€
Water register transfer for the house : Approximately 35.-€
Satellite membership for TV- Digiturk : Approximately 100.-€
Telephone line : Approximately 10.-€
No pre-payment-fee of the line claimed in the
first invoice after the line is active
(Please note these prices may change
due to updates made by the authorities)
Agreement
Once you have decided on a property from our portfolio
we will assist you with the following agreement procedures:
Signing standard service charges agreement in the
presence of both parties
Finding a solicitor approved by the referring Embassy
Pre-sales agreement (duable with a pre-sales agreement
prepared by the notary or by a solicitor or both)
Deposit
Before we start the procedures at the Land Registry Office,
a deposit of 10% of the sales price will be asked to be paid to the
seller (as outlined in the contract). In addition to this, half of the
total service cost (1.5%) will be paid to Second Home Turkey at the
stage of pre-sales agreement by both seller/buyer.
The payment of the remaining sum i.e.90%, would be paid together
with the remaining half (1.5%) of the service cost when all the legal
procedures are finalised and parties are called for transaction.
Permission
In case the buyer is a foreign nationality person, it is required that the availability of buying the property and passport details of the buyer be approved by the Regional Army Headquarters.
At this stage the costs No:2-3-4 stated in
‘General Buying/Selling Procedures’are
asked to be covered.
Deed Delivery –‘Tapu’
Once we receive the approval for the transfer of the deed, so called
‘TAPU’ to your name, you have either the option to give us or your
solicitor a power of attorney to register the property on your name
or to come once again on call for the termination of the documents.
At this stage the costs No:1-5 stated in
‘General Buying/Selling Procedures’are
asked to be covered.
