The main site is www.sahibinden.com. But YES....everything here is negotiable. I would suggest a second hand car as the tax on new cars is eye-watering. Second-hand cars hold their value really well. As to properly, I can only give you my example. ... Read More

Where in Turkey is best to live? by Télasco
Good morning everyone, I would like to know which City is better to live? I have a 20 years old child that will need University. Is it Istanbul, Ankara or Karabuk? Thank you

I would say very difficult unless you have a Turkish sponsor. The unemployment rate in Turkey is nearing 30% so a lot of Turks have no jobs. However, if you have a specialty it may be possible...BUT you need a special permit and that's where the ... Read More
