Anna good afternoon! When selling your apartment, in the cadastral confirmation of the transaction amount, specify the amount that is not subject to tax, i.e. at the minimum cost that you can find out in the municipality by requesting the document required when making the transaction in the cadastral office.

Good afternoon. The tax on the sale of real estate is calculated from the difference in the cost of buying an apartment and selling it. The value that you specified in the cadastral office during the transaction is usually the cadastral value. The tax is charged when selling an apartment that you have owned for less than 5 years

Hello! How do I pay for an ID from another country? I'm not in Turkey right now. Should the management company issue an invoice for payment? The bank did not accept our payment, as they require an invoice for services to be paid to a legal entity. And we also don't know how to pay the tax remotely. Thank you in advance for your reply!

Fethiye and Oludeniz: apartments and villas in the "other" Turkey People often talk about these places breathlessly, calling them the most beautiful on the Turkish coast: lagoons with the purest turquoise water, cozy coves near rocky shores overgrown with cedar and pine, ancient monuments hidden in the mountains or, on the contrary, in the middle of modern buildings; It is not surprising that real estate here is quite expensive, although cheaper than in the elite Bodrum.
