OUR APPROACH
Investment Consultancy Built Around Your Objectives
Istanbul offers a wide range of premium real estate, but not every attractive property is a sound investment. Prices, rental demand and resale liquidity can differ sharply between neighbouring streets, between two buildings on the same avenue and even between floors of the same tower. Our role is to turn this complexity into a clear, documented investment case.
We work for the buyer. Before we present a property, we define what the investment has to achieve: preserving capital, generating a stable rental income, positioning for long-term value growth, or a combination of these. That brief then guides the search, the shortlist and the negotiation.
Our day-to-day focus is the premium segment of Beşiktaş and the adjoining districts on Istanbul's European side: the Bosphorus neighbourhoods, the Büyükdere business corridor and Nişantaşı. Since 2020 this has been our sole market, which allows us to compare opportunities on the basis of first-hand knowledge rather than listings alone.
WHAT WE ANALYSE
Strategic Real Estate Advisory: What We Analyse Before You Invest
Each opportunity is reviewed against the same set of questions, so that properties can be compared on a like-for-like basis.
Investment potential
How the property fits your objectives and what drives its value: location, building standard, nearby supply and the depth of buyer demand.
Micro-location analysis
The street, the surrounding buildings, access to business hubs, the view and the floor. In Istanbul these details often decide both rent and resale price.
Rental yield
A realistic estimate of unfurnished and furnished rental income, based on comparable lettings, set against acquisition and holding costs.
Risk review
Title deed status, zoning, building permits, the condition of older buildings, management fees and any restrictions are checked before an offer is made, with legal counsel where needed.
Liquidity
Some properties are easy to buy and difficult to sell. We consider how many qualified buyers a property is likely to attract later.
Exit strategy
The exit is planned at the time of purchase: holding period, resale route, the effect of taxes on a future sale and the option of repositioning the asset before selling.
From Shortlist to Title Deed: Legal & Transaction Support
Foreign nationals can generally buy property in Turkey; eligibility depends on nationality and on the location of the property, so both are confirmed at the start. We coordinate each step with licensed professionals and keep you informed throughout.
Investment brief
We agree objectives, budget, timeframe and risk appetite, and the property types that fit them.
Shortlist
A limited number of properties, including off-market options, each with a short investment note.
Due diligence
Title deed, zoning, building documents and fees are checked; a licensed valuation report is obtained where it is required.
Negotiation
We negotiate price and terms on your behalf and document every step of the agreement.
Title deed transfer
Tax number, bank account, insurance and the Land Registry appointment are coordinated with your lawyer.
Handover
The property is set up for its intended use: own use, letting, furnished rental or a planned sale.
Citizenship by investment and residence permits follow their own rules, which change over time. We confirm current conditions with legal counsel before any commitment is made.

Investors We Work With
Turkish investors living in Europe

Family offices and private clients
Investors who already hold, or plan to build, a portfolio of premium residential or commercial property in Istanbul and need confidentiality, off-market access, portfolio analysis and the long-term preservation of capital.
OFF-MARKET
Off-Market Property Access for Family Offices and Private Clients
A meaningful share of premium property in Istanbul changes hands without a public listing. Owners in this segment often prefer discretion, and some opportunities are offered first to a small circle of qualified buyers.
Through our network of sellers, buyers and developers in Beşiktaş, we can present suitable off-market options to clients who have a clear brief and the means to act. Discussions are confidential. Our approach is described on the Our Ecosystem page.
For family offices we can also review an existing Istanbul portfolio: how the assets are allocated by type and location, which ones perform as intended and which could be repositioned, let differently or sold. See also our article on a Beşiktaş real estate ecosystem for family offices.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this investment advisory service for?
It is designed for international investors, Turks living abroad and family offices who want to buy premium residential or commercial real estate in Istanbul with a clear investment case, rather than simply viewing listings.
Can I buy property in Istanbul while living abroad?
Yes, many of our clients do. Much of the preparation can be handled remotely, and in many cases formal steps can be carried out through a representative with a notarised power of attorney. Whether this suits your purchase is confirmed with legal counsel before you commit.
Do you also manage the property after the purchase?
Yes. After the acquisition, our Strategic Real Estate Asset Management service can take over leasing, tenant selection, furnished rental management and the planning of a future sale.
