Buying in Alanya can be straightforward with the right preparation. Legal and technical verification deserve the same attention as the apartment itself.
Plan the total budget
Allow for official transaction costs, possible translation or valuation services, insurance, utilities, furnishing and repairs. Verify current official charges close to completion.
Choose the district for your purpose
Year-round living, holidays and investment can lead to different location choices. Match the neighbourhood to your real routine.
Verify title and property information
Ownership, the exact independent unit and relevant registry entries should be checked through official/professional channels. A listing is not a substitute for the registry.
Technical checks and contract
Inspect moisture, plumbing, electrics, common areas, fees and debts. In new developments, put delivery and specification terms in writing.
Payment and completion day
Define deposit and balance timing clearly. An official interpreter may be required where a party does not understand Turkish sufficiently. Check the current DASK/TCIP requirement before transfer.
After transfer
Record key handover and meter readings, transfer utilities and inform management. This is general information; verify current requirements with TKGM and independent professionals where appropriate.
