Foreigners have the right to buy apartments in installments in Turkey, and in every installment process, an agreement is made between the seller and the buyer to determine the amount of the payments and the first payment, and they also agree together on the periods in which the installments must be paid.
Buying apartments in installments in Turkey is one of the good options financially, as the buyer can pay easily and comfortably.
There are two ways to buy apartments in installments in Turkey:
First method:
Buying apartments in installments in Turkey directly from the construction company:
* Where a formal sales contract is organized between the construction company and the buyer in which the value of the payments, the time periods, and the price of the property are determined,
The buyer must make payments in time periods and agreed values, and the construction company is obligated to deliver the property on time, especially when the building is under construction.
The more the property was delivered after a short period, the higher the construction price.
* The normal value of the first payment is most often 35%, but the amount varies according to the construction company and the offer that it offers.
Second method:
Buying apartments in installments in Turkey with a bank loan:
The bank buys the property and then sells it and puts a mortgage on the property that it does not remove except after paying all the installments.
These installments are usually monthly and their value is less than the value of direct purchase from construction companies, because banks use the method of adopting long periods of installment between 5 to 10 years, but the price of the property in the bank is higher than the construction companies, so it is considered a more difficult option than direct purchase.
