Assistance in obtaining a mortgage

Many of us would like to have their own "cozy corner" on the sunny Mediterranean coast, where, being tired of the hustle and bustle of the daily routine, you can get away for a little while, forget about the intrusive reality, plunge not only in the tender sea, but also in the serenity, beauty and comfort.

However, unfortunately, for most of us purchasing real estate on the Turkish land, largely due to the lack of funds or unwillingness to spend all your savings at once, to this time has been something like a mirage. 

But things have changed!



Tolerance-Homes, together with turkish benks, is pleased to announce that now foreign citizens can obtain a mortgage loan in Turkey.

So let the question of buying real estate in Turkey now become for you not a rhetorical one, but one that is open, clear, and capable of being very quickly settled, and our company will always be ready to become your faithful captain and guide in the sea of Turkish real estate and banking.

Loan obtaining procedure:

Once the specialists of our company, together with you, have prepared all the necessary documents and translated them into Turkish, they will be delivered to the Bank for examination. 

The Bank will invite an expert real estate appraiser, analyze the documents and issue a preliminary loan approval, which indicates: loan amount, its term, interest rate and other conditions. 

Standard bank offer period — 4 months. At this stage the Borrower must pay for the expert company services in the amount of approximately 150 euros. 

After that starts the procedure of (Tapu) Certificate of Title registering on the real estate Buyer. At the time of Tapu transfer to the new Owner, the bank imposes the mortgage encumbrance on it. 

To make possible Tapu transfer to the Borrower and, respectively, loan obtaining, all the permits from the Office of Cadastre in Ankara (it is not required for Russian citizens) and the Military Department in Izmir (it usually takes from 2 to 4 months) must be obtained. 

Once the Buyer has received the certificate of title, the loan will be paid to the real estate owner by the Bank by a direct transfer into his/her account. 

At the time when the loan is paid the Borrower must pay the additional expenses of the Bank at the rate of 2% of the loan amount + the cost of the various types of insurance.
