Turkey's growing popularity among holidaymakers could be helping to drive growth in its housing market, according to experts.
Independent analysts at Amberlamb said the country was likely to keep attracting more and more foreign leisure travellers during the next decade at least.
This means that there will be an increasing level of demand for rental accommodation in the most popular areas, while high levels of interest among prospective investment property buyers is also likely to push up prices.
