How to obtain Turkish citizenship through the purchase of real estate in 2023?

It is necessary to buy real estate in the amount of 400 thousand dollars - of it’s cadastral value! 

You can buy residential, commercial real estate or land. After three years, the investor has the right to sell the property.

Can I buy several properties for the required investment amount?

If you are buying a property under construction and it does not yet have a certificate of ownership (TAPU), you can apply for citizenship with such an object under a notarized contract of sale. So, in the application for citizenship there can be only one such agreement. That is, it is possible to recruit several objects for a passport for 400 thousand, but from one developer and one contract.

If you attach ready-made certificates of ownership to your citizenship application, there are no restrictions. You can attach several tapu received at different times. The main thing is that the cadastral value in total exceeds 400 thousand dollars.
