The latest figures for September 2026 show that residential property transactions across Turkey increased by 3.9 % year‑on‑year, totalling 51,519 units. This uptick reflects a combination of historically low mortgage rates, strong foreign buyer interest, and ongoing government‑backed infrastructure upgrades.
Price Movements in Antalya and Alanya
Along Turkey’s Mediterranean coast, Antalya and Alanya remain the most sought‑after locations for overseas investors. In September, average prices in these cities rose by approximately 2.5 %, while newly launched luxury developments posted gains of up to 4.2 %. Key factors driving this appreciation include energy‑efficient building standards, proximity to the sea, and well‑planned communal amenities such as parks, schools and healthcare centres.
Impact of International Buyers
Citizens from Russia, the United Kingdom and Germany are taking advantage of Turkey’s citizenship‑by‑investment scheme, which simplifies residency permits and fuels demand. Amid Europe’s energy‑price volatility, many investors view Turkish real estate as a stable store of value, further boosting transaction volumes.
- Foreign nationals account for roughly 28 % of all sales.
- In Antalya, sea‑view apartments in new projects are the top choice.
- On the resale market in Alanya, price growth remains modest at around 1.8 % per month.
- Rental yields in both cities continue to exceed 5 % net annual return, attracting buy‑to‑let investors.
The data suggests that Turkey’s housing market is resilient for both short‑term flipping and long‑term wealth preservation. Assuming financing conditions stay favourable and transport links improve, analysts forecast an additional 3‑4 % rise in national sales volume by the end of 2026.
