The Most Common Mistakes When Moving to Turkey.

Good day, everyone! Today, we will tell you about the mistakes that many people make when moving to Turkey.

I hope this will help you avoid them, so they don't overshadow your dream!The Most Common Mistakes When Moving to Turkey.


So, let's start with probably the most important mistake. It is the lack of sober calculation and understanding when moving to Turkey.

I know, of course, that many people love this country and definitely want to move here for various reasons, but...

Your relocation should be done with a clear and rational mind.

Especially for you, dear ladies. If you are coming here for love, make sure it is truly a genuine feeling.

And not just from your side. This will undoubtedly help you avoid many disappointments and problems!

Many people also try to escape from life's troubles in their home country, hoping that everything will magically change in Turkey...

I believe in miracles, but such big miracles in life are probably rare... 

In other words, if you couldn't sort out your life in your home country, it will be difficult to expect that everything will miraculously change in Turkey...

And perhaps the most important thing is the budget, the budget, and once again, the budget. A calculated budget for your life in Turkey.

Please add up all your incomes, estimate whether they will be enough for all expenses in Turkey - I have a lot of useful information on this topic in my feed.

Remember that finding a job in Turkey is not easy at all, so please don't count on it, especially in the beginning.

And then, if you don't have exaggerated expectations and are not lost in the clouds, Turkey will definitely reciprocate!

One of the biggest mistakes when moving is also related to choosing the region to live in.

Please don't fall for advertisements and beautiful pictures when choosing a property - choose the region of your future residence according to your needs, not according to the goals and objectives of the seller.

If it's just for vacation, you have a huge selection, except for Istanbul, of course.

If your goal is permanent residency, then it's a different matter, especially if you have children and need to think about their education and development.

In that case, small villages and towns like Mahmutlar, Alanya, Kemer, Bodrum, or Belek may not be suitable for you.

No matter how gentle the sea splashes outside your window and how the sun shines.

In my practice, many people came to buy real estate and didn't listen to our advice. They bought a villa, for example, surrounded by mountains and greenery, even though their goals didn't align with that.

Of course, I could understand these people, especially after the hectic pace of Moscow, for example. But then, it always ended almost the same way - they came to us and asked us to sell their villa.

Because having pine trees and mountains outside the window is certainly nice, but not the most important thing in life.

And once again, we helped them choose real estate based on their true needs. And this time, they listened to our advice, of course.

So, in order to avoid making a mistake when moving to Turkey, you must definitely choose the right region for your living.

And for that, of course, it's better to turn to professionals who prioritize your interests rather than their own pockets, but finding such people in Turkey is not easy at all!

Therefore, choose your future realtor very carefully, so you won't regret it later. They will be your guide during your initial period of living in Turkey.
