Are you thinking to buy a property in Turkey? Haven't chosen your second home under sun? Then here is some popular buying locations

People  looking to buy a property in Turkey tend to look in three main areas: Istanbul, the Aegean coast and the Mediterranean coast. While not the capital, Istanbul is the cultural heart of Turkey and offers a cosmopolitan lifestyle. Having said that, not many foreigners tend to buy here compared to the coastal resorts, but it does offer a better buy-to-let opportunity as the population is huge and the city isn’t suffering from the over-supply that is currently affecting the coast.

The Aegean coast comprises Ceşme, Kuşadasi, Altinkum and Bodrum. The diversity in just this region is overwhelming – no matter what you are after you will find it on the Aegean. From quaint fishing villages to busting towns, this is an area that has something for everyone, with beaches, history and a huge selection of bars and restaurants.

Meanwhile, the Mediterranean coast ranges from Marmaris in the east to Alanya in the west. This huge stretch of coastline, serviced by Antalya airport, boasts long hot summers and the promise of snow in the mountains behind during the winter. Golf courses are starting to appear here (Belek), making for a truly modern destination.
