It's fascinating to know that even if someone resides in another country, they can still sell or buy property in Turkey. The process seems quite straightforward.
To initiate the title deed transfer, you can scan the required documents into the Web Land Registry system. For documents from abroad, they need to be apostilled before being scanned. Additionally, you can make an appointment either by calling ALO181 or using the title deed appointment system. The requested documents must be submitted in person at the land registry office. After submission, you will receive SMS notifications regarding further steps.
Throughout the process, there are several important checks in place to prevent fraudulent activities, such as verifying that the name and signature used by the seller while purchasing the property match the ones on the selling documents.
The fees for the deed transfer will be provided in the SMS notifications you receive. Once the fees are paid, both the buyer and the seller need to be present at the appointment for the deed transfer.
