Additional flights and more tourism represent good news for Turkish property

The increase in the number of budget flights and tourists travelling to Turkey will have a large impact on its property market, it has been claimed.

Dominic Whiting, editor of the Buying in Turkey guide, told online community portal Didim Today that the country's rising appeal represents great news for the property sector.

Many airlines have increased the number of flights they offer to the country in order to keep up with demand.

He argues that this will boost activity in the market and contribute towards a speedy economic recovery.

"More budget flight options, particularly from regional airports, and the growing number of British tourists holidaying in Turkey is excellent news for the property sector and promises to add to the country's appeal with home buyers," he told the portal.

British property investors can capitalise on the fact that Turkey lies outside the eurozone, with the GBP performing well against the Turkish lira.
