Property prices in Turkey (or Alanya)

@cdw057 Just read an interesting article that after elections it is not allowed for 5 years (!!) to sell to foreigners, I have no problem with that but I think it will depress the prices quite a bit (which is the purpose).

The plan of Erdogan anyhow I think, and I think this will be an effective way to do so, however I think it would also be good to challenge all the landlords who do not pay (or too little taxes). By challenging these I think the prices will also go down (many properties on the market I think)

Following the topic, I kind of agree with cdw057.

@cdw057 Hi, just to be certain, are sure that the  foreigners will be not allowed to buy a house in Turkey after the election of June 2023? I ask you because we are looking to move in Turkey this summer  by buying a house. If it is an official source what you reported,  certainly we will move earlier. Many thanks to clarify  this point!

@Tassilli I would say bad luck, perhaps we were lucky to buy, but prices will go down (massively). Also a big clamp down on landlords (especially foreign) which is fine, but the impact on value of our property will be massive (by the way at this stage I think our Ikamet will be safe (permanent residents with property (but that is another matter))

Turkey in my view is just for holidays, renting, hotels. (Perhaps after a few months hotels only).

In a way I am neutral, but I sad for the poor German/... pensioners who just rent, they move back massively as I understand.

Please note I am just giving my opinion, nothing more. Turkey is great, but ..

@cdw057 I do not like the landlords who rent out and do not pay taxes (loads of them I think), they Turkey should take them as well (even more especially I think)

It certainly is quite unsettling to hear for those of us planning to move soon.  The politician making this assertion, CHP leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu is the opponent of the current president of Turkey, so I'm uncertain if this policy is firm or is it a promise to be imposed should leadership change hands.  This revelation does not appear to be a prevailing topic in the news as I only found one article on it (link below).  I'll be moving fast to make a purchase as time nears closer to the elections and becomes evident of its accuracy.
