Real estate experts note that this upward trend in sales could extend into the last quarter of the year. However, interest rate fluctuations, currency volatility, and rising construction costs remain crucial factors to watch.
- Will Prices Keep Rising? Increasing construction and land costs are pushing new housing prices higher.
- Second-Hand Market Advantage: Analysts suggest that price growth in the resale market will be more moderate, offering attractive opportunities for buyers.
- Foreign Investor Interest: Sales to foreigners have shown renewed momentum during the summer, particularly in coastal and tourism-oriented cities.
🌴 Antalya at the Center of Housing Market Activity
As Türkiye’s top tourism destination, Antalya once again stood out in August’s housing market performance. Thanks to strong interest from both domestic and foreign buyers, the city ranked among the top five provinces with the highest number of housing sales.
- Strong Demand in Tourist Areas: Konyaaltı, Lara, Belek, and Alanya saw a surge in interest for holiday homes.
- Foreign Buyers Leading the Way: Investors from Russia, Germany, Iran, and the Middle East continued to drive sales, keeping Antalya in the lead for foreign home purchases.
- High Rental Yields: Experts emphasize that Antalya is seen as a safe haven by investors thanks to strong short-term rental demand.
Officials from the Antalya Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ATSO) predict that this demand will remain strong through the last quarter of the year. Large-scale infrastructure and airport investments are also expected to further boost property values in the region.
