The Process
The step by step procedure for purchasing a villa is very simple.
Step 1: Contact us with the dates you would like to visit Kas. We suggest 7 days for your visit. Advise us when you book your flights to Dalaman or Antalya airport and we will arrange your accommodation, either a hotel or villa and collect you from the airport.
Step 2: We will take you to look at different properties or building plots if you decide on a brand new villa. If you see something pre built that you like the procedure is simple. We can recommend a local Solicitor that we frequently work with and they will draw up a purchase contract. The process generally takes 8-10 weeks before you receive your TAPU or Title Deed and the villa is yours! We require a 10% deposit and the final payment on completion. Typical legal costs will be approximately £50 (sterling) for a notary. This is to give your Solicitor power of attorney to cover the paper work on your behalf in Turkey. Solicitor typically charge £800 (sterling) for their legal fees in terms of completing the contracts etc. They usually require 50%of this fee to start and the balance on completion. You will be required to pay 3% Tax on completion.
Step 3: If you decide to buy a brand new villa that will be built for you, we work closely with you each step of the way. Firstly we will show you various building plots and tracts of land. Once you have chosen a building plot you will meet with our architect. The architect will discuss the plans that we have available and go over your thoughts and ideas. We have many plans available to show you and can walk you through the process. Once you have made a decision and agreed upon a villa we are ready to begin! Finance is arranged as follows- a 10% deposit upon agreement followed by contractual staged payments over the course of construcion to completion. All of these details and obligations are contained within the purchase contract drawn up by the solicitor. The legal costs will be similar to the costs stated in step 2.
Step 4: Your villa is completed, built to your specification and incudes your pool, landscaped gardens and driveway. You have purchased a complete TURNKEY solution.
