Data shows that the Başakşehir district is a high-growth area in Istanbul, with its population showing an upward trend for 11 consecutive years from 2008 to 2018! Specifically, the district's population was approximately 396,000 in 2017, increasing to about 427,000 in 2018, and is expected to double to 800,000 by 2020! The continuous population growth has created significant opportunities for the development of the Başakşehir district.
At the same time, the Kartal district is also a key area with potential for investment, benefiting from major Turkish infrastructure projects. Renewal projects include better transportation, landscaping, shopping, housing, education, and medical facilities. This area is home to many large companies, showing a thriving economy and popularity. Coupled with its superior geographical location, it has significant future development potential. Many interested clients prioritize purchasing projects in prime locations when investing overseas!
A Popular City for Investment in Turkey — Istanbul
As one of the fastest-growing cities in the world, Istanbul has attracted a large number of immigrants due to its favorable geographical location and high GDP growth! In 2018, as many as 577,457 foreigners moved to Turkey, an increase of 23.8% over the previous year. Of these, approximately 202,000 settled in Istanbul, accounting for 35%!
Furthermore, as a city spanning both Europe and Asia, Istanbul has become a well-known international metropolis! In November 2018, the GaWC World City Rankings were released, and Istanbul entered the ranks of world-class cities, comparable to Paris, Tokyo, and others. Turkey plans to build Istanbul into a global regional hub by 2023. With the steady growth of the Turkish economy in recent years, many multinational companies have established their Europe-Asia headquarters in Istanbul, making it a rapidly growing and popular investment destination.
Looking at the trend of Turkish housing prices from 2011 to 2019, it is currently at a 10-year low. From a market perspective, Turkish real estate in prime areas represents a good opportunity! Istanbul is replicating the investment opportunities seen in other major cities like Athens, Lisbon, and Barcelona after 2008, and may experience a significant surge in housing prices in the coming years.
Turkey is a major geographical, demographic, and economic power in Eurasia among countries currently offering investment-based citizenship programs, and it is also a major G20 country offering a low-cost investment-based citizenship program! For high-net-worth individuals looking to achieve overseas asset allocation, the relaxation of Turkey's home-purchase immigration policy and monetary easing make this the perfect time to enter the Turkish investment market! Turkish real estate has significant development prospects, and the launch of the Turkish Citizenship by Investment Program provides global investors with an excellent opportunity for immigration investment and creating an overseas home.
