Those looking to buy a property in Turkey should make it a priority to do more than look at the title deeds to any home they are seeking to purchase, an expert has said.
Such advice has been delivered by the Sunday Zaman newspaper, which stated that under the law of the country a home seller does not give up the title deed, as the new buyer gets a fresh one.
This makes it theoretically possible for a home to be sold more than once, so buyers should look at the official register rather than just the deed, it notes.
However, the paper said, there is no reason why overseas property buyers should not be able to make purchases without any problems, noting: "It must be possible, as over 85,000 foreigners have managed it."
Last week Quest Turkey Property and Lifestyle Magazine noted that Dalyan has become a major centre for overseas buyers in recent years.
Its location on the Turquoise Coast and proximity to Dalaman's international airport were two factors cited in its success.
