THE CONTRACT

When you have decided to go ahead with the purchase of your dream home, a purchase agreement will be established and a security deposit has to be paid.

Once all parties have signed the contract and the payment of the deposit is made, the contract becomes binding.

The deposit amount varies from property to property, but as a general rule, you put a deposit of up to 10 % of the purchase price.

If you later decide to cancel your contract, you will lose the deposit. However, if the seller withdraws from the agreement, you are entitled to a refund of the deposit you paid, a penalty clause applies in such an event.

A.D.H Homes Turkey, help you to go through the terms of the contract before signing it.

THE COMPLETION

Upon completion, both the buyer and seller (or its power of attorney) will meet in person at the local real estate office for the transfer of title deeds.

This process usually takes only an hour and a representative is on-site during the process.

Foreign buyers are required to have an official translator present to certify enrollment. The buyer shall by law pay taxes and fees before the final deed is signed.

Once all parties have signed the contract, the process ends and the sale is complete.

The signing of this document means that the property and the ownership have now been transferred to the new buyer and the buyer will be registered in the Land Registry.

Upon transfer of the title deed, the full price must have been paid to the seller.
