After-sales & rental management
Utility subscriptions, furnishing, rental management and resale support after you get the keys.
Property viewings in Istanbul, organised around your shortlist
Photos and floor plans only show part of a property. Light, noise, the view from the actual floor, the condition of shared areas and the walk to the metro are things you understand only by seeing them. Our viewing service lets you do that efficiently, either during a property viewing trip to Istanbul or through live video viewings from home.
Our advisory service is free for buyers, from the first consultation to after-sales support. Third-party costs, such as legal fees, the title deed fee, taxes, and translation and notary costs, are paid to the relevant parties as usual.
Property viewing trip to Istanbul
If you plan to travel, we build the viewing schedule around your shortlist so you can see the most relevant properties in a few well-planned days rather than a week of driving across the city.
- Before you arrive: we group properties by area, confirm availability with developers and sellers, and send you a day-by-day plan. If needed, we suggest which part of the city is convenient to stay in.
- On viewing days: an adviser accompanies you to each property, asks the questions you might not think of, and shows you the surrounding streets, transport stops and daily services.
- After each day: you receive a short written summary so that properties do not blur together, with our notes on price, condition and open questions.
Most buyers find that two or three viewing days are enough to narrow a shortlist to one or two serious options. We do not pressure you to decide during the trip.
Video viewing of property in Turkey
Many clients prefer to start remotely. A live video viewing is different from a pre-recorded tour: an adviser walks through the property in real time, opens cupboards and windows, shows the view from the balcony and the condition of the building entrance, and answers your questions as you go.
- Viewings by WhatsApp video or another platform you prefer, scheduled in your time zone.
- For new-build projects that are still under construction, we show the show flat, the construction site and the surrounding area, and explain what is complete and what is not.
- You can invite family members to join the same call.
Video viewings can be the whole process. Turkish law allows a property purchase through a notarised power of attorney, so buyers who cannot travel can still complete the purchase and title deed transfer. Many buyers, however, use video viewings to narrow the choice and then travel once to see the final option.
What to check during a viewing
- Orientation and daylight at different times of day.
- Noise from roads, construction or neighbouring businesses.
- The condition of the lift, stairwell, car park and shared facilities.
- The monthly service charge and what it covers.
- For resale homes: the age of kitchens, bathrooms, windows and heating.

Frequently asked questions
How far in advance should I plan a viewing trip?
Ideally one to two weeks before you travel. This gives us time to confirm availability with developers and sellers and to group viewings efficiently by area.
Do you charge for arranging viewings?
No. Our consultation and advisory service is free for buyers. Third-party costs, such as legal fees, the title deed fee, taxes, and translation and notary costs, are paid to the relevant parties as usual.
Can I view a property under construction?
Yes. We show the show flat where one exists, the construction site and the surrounding area, and we explain the stage of construction and the expected delivery stated by the developer.
Can I buy after viewing only by video?
Yes. Many buyers complete the purchase through a notarised power of attorney after video viewings. We recommend it only once all checks on the property have been completed.
How many properties can I see on a property viewing trip to Istanbul?
Most buyers see four to six properties a day comfortably, including travel between districts. We group viewings by area and leave time to revisit a favourite. Two or three days are usually enough to compare a focused shortlist; a longer stay helps if you also want to obtain a tax number or open a bank account.
Can you check a listing I found elsewhere before my trip?
Yes. Send us the link or the project name before you travel and we will verify what we can: building permits, the title deed type, the realistic price range and the points to clarify with the seller. If it fits your brief, we add it to your viewing and purchase plan alongside the other options.
