Buying from abroad

Buying from abroad: what happens online, and what does not

Separate the search and viewing process from the legal steps that establish ownership.

Begin with information, not a commitment

You can discuss requirements, review listings and arrange live video viewings from abroad. Ask for current availability and a unit-specific fact sheet. These early activities help you decide whether further investigation is worthwhile. They do not verify title or guarantee that a particular foreign buyer may purchase the property.

Make the professional checks property-specific

Before any binding commitment, engage appropriately qualified independent advisers to examine the title, proposed seller, restrictions, permits and transaction documents. Requirements can vary with the property and the buyer. Keep ownership questions separate from residence or citizenship questions. WestHome does not certify eligibility and does not promise that buying a home produces an immigration outcome.

Understand the boundary of digital tools

The official Your Key Türkiye service describes digital routes for foreign-buyer land-registry applications. An online application is a process step, not evidence that title has already transferred. Ask your adviser and the relevant registry how the required formalities apply to your circumstances, including any proposed representation or power of attorney. Use the official service directly rather than sending identity documents through a general property enquiry form.

Agree the handover before it arrives

Request a clear written schedule for conditions, payments, registration and possession. Establish how keys, utility arrangements and any agreed work will be handled. Verify recipients independently before transferring money. WestHome can coordinate introductions and practical arrangements through Alperen and the Alanya Eiendom operation, but it does not operate an online payment or title-transfer service.

General information, not a property-specific professional opinion. Verify current requirements with an appropriately qualified independent adviser before committing.
