Exploring the Turkish Citizenship-by-Investment Program: Opportunities in Real Estate

The Turkish Citizenship-by-Investment program offers an enticing pathway to citizenship for those investing in the country's vibrant economy. This initiative allows foreign nationals to gain Turkish citizenship by investing in real estate or starting a business in Türkiye. The program is part of Türkiye's strategic effort to attract foreign direct investment and stimulate the real estate market.

Overview of the Citizenship-by-Investment Program

Since its inception, the Turkish Citizenship-by-Investment program has required a minimum real estate investment of $400,000. This investment grants the investor the right to apply for full Turkish citizenship, which includes benefits such as voting rights, access to Turkish passports, and the ability to travel to numerous countries without visa restrictions.

Real Estate Trends Under the Citizenship Program

In recent years, particularly in 2020, the demand for residential properties in Türkiye has surged, partly due to the attractiveness of the Citizenship-by-Investment program. The current trend shows a high interest in standalone homes and small residential complexes of three to five stories. New constructions and homes in various stages of development are particularly popular, as buyers are eager to invest in properties that qualify them for citizenship.
