In properties with shared ownership, each co-owner can sell their own share. However, all co-owners must act together for the entire property to be sold. In some cases, the legal rights of the other co-owners and the sales process may require special consideration. Therefore, the legal process should be managed carefully when selling properties with shared ownership.

After the death of the deceased, the inheritance procedures must first be completed and the title deed records must be updated. Once the necessary official procedures have been completed, the heirs can proceed with the sale in accordance with their legal rights.

This situation is evaluated according to the terms of the agreement made between the parties. If there is a written promise of sale or a deposit agreement, the provisions of the agreement apply. Therefore, proceeding with written documents rather than verbal agreements is safer for both the buyer and the seller.

The title deed fee is legally paid separately by the buyer and seller at a rate of 2% each, making a total of 4% of the sale price. The parties may agree on a different payment arrangement between themselves.

The title deed fee also applies to property sales involving foreign buyers or sellers. Depending on the transaction, additional costs such as the revolving fund fee and other required expenses may also arise.

For a secure sales process, payments should not be accepted without identity verification, transactions should be carried out through banks, all agreements should be put in writing, and title deed procedures should be conducted through official institutions. In addition, obtaining professional consultancy support can help reduce both legal and operational risks.

A title deed is an official document that proves ownership of a property. It identifies the legal owner of a house, land or commercial property and helps secure the rights associated with the property. Title deed records are maintained by the General Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre. In real estate transactions, ownership is not officially considered transferred until the title deed transfer is completed.

A title deed transfer is an official procedure carried out by the buyer and seller at the Land Registry Office with the required documents. Before the transaction, an application is submitted, the necessary documents are checked, and after the title deed fee and revolving fund fee are paid, the parties sign the relevant documents. Once the transaction is completed, ownership of the property is transferred to the new owner.

For title deed procedures, an identification document, a current market value statement obtained from the relevant municipality, a valid DASK policy, title deed information, and other documents that may be requested depending on the type of transaction are required. If the transaction is carried out through a power of attorney, a notarized power of attorney must also be presented. Since the required documents may vary depending on the type of transaction, it is advisable to obtain up-to-date information from the relevant Land Registry Office before applying.

Condominium ownership means that the ownership rights of independent units, such as apartments or commercial units, in a completed building are separately registered in the title deed. Condominium ownership can be established once the building has been completed and the necessary requirements have been fulfilled.

In short, condominium ownership refers to ownership of an independent unit in a completed building, while construction servitude refers to the legal status of an independent unit before the building is completed. When purchasing a property, it is important to check not only the type of title deed but also the building permit, occupancy permit and other official records.

An occupancy permit is an official document showing that a building has been completed in accordance with its construction permit. It is also known as a building use permit. Having an occupancy permit indicates that the building can legally be used and may provide an important advantage in certain transactions.

When selling to foreign buyers, the property's legal status, eligibility for sale, title deed information and required official documents should be carefully checked. Additional procedures may apply depending on the buyer's nationality and the type of transaction.

The asking price reflects the seller's expectations, while the actual sales price is determined by market conditions, buyer demand and negotiations. This is why accurate pricing is particularly important at the beginning of the sales process.

The true market value of a property is not determined solely based on its price per square meter. Accurate price analysis is carried out by evaluating comparable sales in the area, location, building age, floor level, orientation, transportation options, social amenities and current market conditions together.

The title deed fee, revolving fund fee, and, where applicable, appraisal or mortgage-related costs are among the main expenses that may arise during a property sale. Although the allocation of certain costs may vary depending on the agreement between the parties, applicable legal obligations should be taken into consideration.

A professional real estate consultant determines the right price, manages the marketing process, organizes negotiations with buyers, follows up on official procedures, and makes the sales process more secure. This helps reduce time loss and increases the likelihood of selling the property at its true market value.

Properties that are eligible for mortgage financing appeal to a wider range of buyers. Having complete documentation such as condominium ownership or construction servitude, a building permit, and zoning status helps the mortgage process proceed more quickly.

The preferred area may vary depending on the investment objective. Konyaaltı, Muratpaşa, Döşemealtı and some newly developing residential areas are among the locations closely followed by investors. When choosing an area, transportation projects, population growth and zoning plans should also be taken into consideration.

In general, documents such as the title deed, identification document, compulsory earthquake insurance (DASK), documents required from the municipality, and, where necessary, a power of attorney may be requested during the sales process.

If the seller is a foreign national, additional documents such as a valid passport or foreigner identification document, a sworn translator where required, and a power of attorney may also be required. If the transaction is carried out through a power of attorney, the document must be prepared in a form valid in Türkiye and, where necessary, the relevant notary or consular procedures must be completed.

Preparing all required documents completely and up to date before the transaction helps the title deed transfer process proceed more quickly and smoothly.
