FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy for citizenship in installments?

For citizenship the property must be fully paid, with payment made through a bank. Installments can be used for residency.

How long does citizenship take?

Timing depends on the authorities and on how complete your documents are. Before the purchase a lawyer will review your case and give an estimated timeline — message us.

Can I combine several properties?

It depends on the legal requirements at the time of purchase. We will check with a lawyer for your budget and pick suitable properties.

Do I have to live in Turkey afterwards?

No, you do not have to live in Turkey. The key condition is not to sell the property for 3 years.
