Ceddu Property's Market Assessment for July 2026
The July 2026 figures indicate that Turkey's real estate market continues to maintain a high level of transaction activity, with resale properties accounting for the majority of sales. The 23.7% increase in mortgage-backed sales is also an important indicator to monitor when assessing housing finance and domestic demand.
Foreign demand for Turkish property remains active, although demand levels vary depending on nationality, city, location and property type.
National sales figures alone are not sufficient to determine whether a property is a good purchase. Buyers should also evaluate location, price per square meter, construction quality, title deed status, resale potential and local demand.
Is July 2026 a Good Time to Buy Property in Turkey?
The right time to purchase property cannot be determined using a single market indicator. A sound decision should consider the property's actual market value, location, specifications and the buyer's purpose, whether for residence, investment or resale.
Ceddu Property recommends conducting a detailed property and location analysis before making a purchase decision, rather than relying solely on monthly sales trends.
