Yes, also how you find and manage all the people that take care of your properties around the world (buying, designing, renovating, maintaining, cleaning & landscaping, )
Before and after renovations and all the math involved (including tracking currency changes, real estate taxes, appraisal fees, etc) would be amazing. And probably get you many more views. I'd pay to watch those.
As a designer myself, I cannot get over this reno. I watched the before and after videos back to back. That entry tile…PERFECTION! Climate control is often my biggest concern when it comes to living in other countries - I cannot do heat/humidity without air conditioning, so I’d be interested to know more about the mechanicals in these type of places.
Beautifully remodeled and furnished apartment Andrew! I went through a similar project to renovate an apartment in a non-Western country and was surprised how nice it turned out.
I am Turkish and vegan. Love travelling within Turkey too. Turkish cuisine is not just kebap, doner, it has historically great choice of food for vegetarians and vegans without even any manipulation of original dish. The issue we have right now is in some parts of the country, you might struggle to find restaurant food that is close to our homemade cooking since people usually prefer kebap type of food and other specifics when eating outside. You can still find some places by looking for it and asking if you want vegan/vegetarian food.
Love this update, I remember how it looked originally. Not only did you buy at the right time but I like the decor! I definitely value Istanbul but missed the 250,000$ purchase for citizenship.
Hi Andrew, for sure a place like Istambul will retain the real value of a real estate. In high inflation countries obviously items like houses, cars and other invaluable stuff are priced in Dollars or pounds.
No they're not! Dollars and pounds are increasingly not accepted in the East, which is increasingly rich and successful as the impoverished failing west sinks into oblivion. The US is the most indebted, poor nation on earth, with the hopeless UK close behind. Greater China and the Middle East have most of the wealth in the world today. Here in Singapore, along with 18 other nations regionally, financials have stated we will no longer transact dollars, pounds, and yen effective January 1 per the RCEP agreement.
You can say all those about the west, buy the numbers say otherwise. The strength of the dollar keeps going up long term, and it's often best to just hold dollars, and exchange them during times of weakness on the target currency.
@@caronridge6912 uk, us and the west are fucked up in many ways but dollar and pound, unlike euro, are still sovreign currencies, so as long as there is political will and understanding, they simply cannot go down
@@nomadnationalist2776 i do not have any dollars at all. I just believe dollar's problems are purely political (mostly foreign) and not intrinsic macroeconomic.

I have never seen anyone regret buying a property in Turkiye but seen a lot of them regretted not buying because the prices are high. I am not a huge fan of investing in real estate but it doesnt change the fact that the owning a house or two or more is always the number one choice for Turkish people when it comes to investing. It is not a financial advice.
Just left Istanbul. Currently hold two passports and turkey is on my radar even though I don't have 400 k to buyout right at the moment for a place but definitely working towards it.
Coming from a background where we have been blessed to have homes/assets all over the world, I can assure you its involves a lot of avoidable busy work and stress. Much easier to just own quality US or other solid stocks that pay regular divs and be free to travel the world and stay at the best places without locking oneself into any place other than perhaps one or two home residences at most. ‘Possessions possess, don’t let possessions posses you.’ : )
How do you keep your houses around the world tidy and clean? Do you have cleaning staff and construction workers that access your houses while you’re not there?
Go with groups of three. Three candles, even in different shape or color, three pieces of porcelain, three pictures on the wall. three pieces of nick knacks on the shelf. Groups of three give the impression of done on purpose. One piece or two pieces could be there by chance. You can also play with color schemes, like several items in the same color. That is my advice.
For vegan or vegetarian enquirers!!! Türkiye has a huge vegan cuisine for centuries. Ask for vegetable dishes with olive oil. There are so many traditional vegan dishes (zeytinyağlı yemekler). Many food vloggers ignore vegetable dishes. Just so you know.

Living in Nisantasi İstanbul, I would recommend to buy a flat in an apartment built in the last 15 years, Since Istanbul is carrying a 7+ earthquake risk.
I’m 18 right now and certainly don’t think that I will have the money to buy property anytime soon. Do you think that Turkeys citizenship by investment will last or stay at 400 k for 10+ years?
Central Istanbul has a variety of offerings of hotel to purchase from newly built to historic buildings. Our real estate company helps foreign investors with commercial properties.
@@charashmaa Hi Olga Thank you for your message. My wife and I will be in Istanbul in the second week of May, perhaps we could meet? What is your companies website?
Nice video. Most real estate in turkey has gone through the roof in recent years. So may not be the best spot now? Have you looked at places in Lombok Indonesia?
Istanbul is an earthquake zone. new buildings are built to withstand a possible earthquake. I wouldn’t buy a building which is older than 15 years in Istanbul. So the first thing you should consider is not the neighborhood it is how old is the building. If we get back to your question, if the building collapses you will only lose the building cost of the apartment. Your share of the land still belongs to you. If you insure your flat, insurance company pays some (or may be all) of your loss. Also you should make the “compulsory earthquake insurance” when you own a property in Turkey so if such a case happens, this insurance also pays some of your loss.
To get citizenship some people from government need tk evaluate if value of real estate is worth 400k $. But in your case you buy a property for let's say 270 k and after 2 years it's value is 400k we can get turkish passport ? So no need to pay real estate fir 400 k and lose money? That's rhe idea ?
Hmm interesting. How about squatters ?. I wanted to buy a property in India and a local realtor talked me out . Apparently once squatters move in no one can get them out. That's my main concern when it comes to property which is difficult to control.
If you are going to buy a property to rent, you should you have to be selective (careful to select) when choosing the tenant. Your realtor will help you to choose a good tenant. You can ask “Findeks” report from the tenant. This is a report that shows a person’s credit score and financial history like credit card debts, credits from banks, etc. So, if he/she has a high credit score, it is very unlikely to face a problem with the tenant. Also there is options that some banks guarantee the 1-year of rent if you are willing to pay one month of rent to the bank. (I am not 100% sure about the terms). Vakifbank (which is a bank that owned by the government) has such a rent guarantee service. If we get back to your original question about the squatters, i can not say it is very easy to get a tenant out of your property who is not paying his/her rent. Eviction cases can take up to 2 years. I am not a legal expert but i think it is easier to get out the tenant not paying rent from a shop instead of a house. So you might consider to buy a shop or office to rent. I'm not sure, but I think the courts are being emotional when they decide to kick a family out of the house. But if you face such a problem, you can hire a good lawyer and start the legal process. And finally, if the tenant pays the rent regularly but you still want to get him out for some reason, you should have a really good reason like proving that yourself will move in the property.
@@JosephOrganicAttraction yes and Istanbul is on a major faultline and due for an earthquake. So I want to know how to pick properties that are well built to survive a quake. Very few in Turkey are

People are nice in Turkey, the country is beautiful and I actually love Turkish food. I would rather be afraid of the military service requirements that comes with the citizenship.
i'm turkish and living abroad since years.. like many other immigrant turks.. there are more than 10 millions turks living abroad. I lived in albania in the past but now moved to worse country because they offered me good salary.. indeed i have no idea why people may need turkish passport. so high unemployment rate, min wages are around 400 usd, more than 50 percent working with min wage. too many afghan and syrian immigrants in istanbul, experts are expecting a huge earthquake in istanbul in coming years, mr erdogan said you can't increase your rent more than 25 percent in a year while lira is dropping more than 25 percent in a year...yeah house prices are low in turkey but it does not make sense your child won't be so happy to grow up in turkey.yeah if you dont have kids, sell your 1 house in europe buy 3 house in Turkey. live in 1 house and give others to rent. live free.. yeah that can be the case for some people.... I was focused on ireland investor visa. but unfortunately they closed the route. spain or malta is not so attractive to me. who are thinking Turkey, must think twice or more..
Hey Andrew, coyld you mqke a video on trusted turkish real estate sites or brokers. A lot of scams these days. Alao, I've heard that foreigners who bought turkish investments were thrown out of the country and their property essentially stolen away from them. Not sure if it's a rumour.
😃👍👏👏👏 My concern about investing anything in Turkey is Turkey's strategic location, and their political position and affiliations. in regard to the currently heating up World War.
As a currency collapses assets hold onto real value…the asset appreciates in price relative to the debased currency. Don’t hold onto cash. Stock markets are a good hedge against inflation, but prices become very volatile.
Do you not think buying property in Istanbul is risky considering the earthquake situation? My people in the east of Turkey never got the money for the earthquake insurance
I think the construction quality of the buildings should be addressed, it is a VERY real possibility that Istanbul is due for a huge earthquake and many buildings will collapse, just like the earthquakes in southeast Turkey this year. The culture is to buy off inspectors for 'licenses' to 'prove' to potential buyers that the building is earthquake safety standard compliant, but in reality the developers do whatever they want without regards for lives. I lived in Istanbul for 2 years and can honestly say that the country is not worth investing in.
Turkish people are suffering after the strong earthquake and there is home crisis in Türkiye. People are still living in the tents. And here capitalist are earning profit with this home crises and getting citizenship.. Turkish people are not happy with this situation. Just informing.
Elections are almost here and the opposition has a good chance of winning for the first time in 20 years. If that happens, this program can be completely canceled; causing the real estate prices to plummet. What is your view on that?
Would you like to see more real estate tours?
YES

I'd be concerned about earthquakes and if apartments and older buildings in Turkey and Istanbul resistant and able to withstand these events.
Do you not think buying property in Istanbul is risky considering the earthquake situation? My people in the east of Turkey never got the money for the earthquake insurance
You don't HAVE to buy in Istanbul. Antalya is worth looking at as well before making a purchase. Antalya is booming.
I think the construction quality of the buildings should be addressed, it is a VERY real possibility that Istanbul is due for a huge earthquake and many buildings will collapse, just like the earthquakes in southeast Turkey this year. The culture is to buy off inspectors for 'licenses' to 'prove' to potential buyers that the building is earthquake safety standard compliant, but in reality the developers do whatever they want without regards for lives. I lived in Istanbul for 2 years and can honestly say that the country is not worth investing in.
Turkish people are suffering after the strong earthquake and there is home crisis in Türkiye. People are still living in the tents.
And here capitalist are earning profit with this home crises and getting citizenship..
Turkish people are not happy with this situation. Just informing.
Istanbul has a big risk of the huge earthquake for the next few years
Elections are almost here and the opposition has a good chance of winning for the first time in 20 years. If that happens, this program can be completely canceled; causing the real estate prices to plummet. What is your view on that?
You got to make over 200% to make some money...
If your watch is registered in Panama or St Kitts the yatch is subject to the laws of the country of the flag which is flying on the ship.

When you factor inflation, you are about breaking even. Just buy what you want to own and use
Andrew, you need to visit a doctor. You have a facial tick due to vitamins & micronutrients deficiencies.

How do Russian Armenians feel about Turkey?
Is Andrew a crypto-Armenian? uh... Well, it looks like... looks like. Hendersonian?

Just tell the Turks that you are "Russian". You will be treated very well. I think they will even begin accepting MIR there over time.
