Airline opens up Turkish market

The introduction of new flights to Turkey could be set to boost its property market, according to the Foreign Property Buyer website.

Low-cost airline easyJet has just begun operating direct flights to Dalaman from London Gatwick Airport.

This represents a significant improvement to the accessibility of the region to consumers based in the UK, potentially boosting tourism in the region.

Growth in the local tourism industry will be good news for property investors as it means rental property in Dalaman will attract high demand.

Furthermore, the affordability and frequent flights offered by easyJet may make it a tempting location for people who want to purchase a holiday home overseas.

Commenting on the region, Foreign Property Buyer said: "Both property prices and rental prices are expected to grow in the area."

The Turkish government is currently aiming to increase the annual number of foreign arrivals from 23 million to 50 million in the next 15 years.
