Our real estate appraisal report shows the market value of a property. It is compulsory for foreigners, who want to buy a property in Turkey as of February 15, 2019. The government wants to ensure that foreign buyers purchase real estate in Turkey at actual prices.

What does our Real Estate Appraisal Report in Turkey?

A home appraisal report outlines the value of the real estate based on its features, condition, location, etc. It is prepared by two appraisers who are authenticated and validated by the SPK. Both are chartered appraisers.

One of them checks the plans and the registration information in the municipality and the Land Registry office. The controller double checks that the home price comparisons and registry are correct. They visit the real estate to make sure you buy what is shown to you.

Why Home Appraisal Report is Important in Turkey?

The government has made this report mandatory in house sales to foreigners. This is because the government wants to learn the real market value of the property rather than rely on the declared one.

Previously, a seller would declare a much lower sales amount to avoid paying higher conveyance tax. Therefore, the valuation report is used as an indicator of real estate in tax calculation.

What are the Types of Real Estate Appraisal Reports in Turkey?

There are 2 types of appraisal reports. They are real estate valuation and project valuation with a feasibility report.

The real estate valuation report may contain more qualifications and conditions according to your request and the features of the real estate. The appraisal reports are prepared by one of the following 3 different methods, depending on the features of the real estate:

• The Comparison Between Precedents: Property is compared between several similar properties.
