Understanding Zoning Laws for Foreign Property Buyers in Turkey
Turkey's zoning regulations (imar laws) significantly impact property purchases, yet many foreign buyers overlook their importance. Coastal areas often have strict construction limits, while urban properties may require additional permits for renovations. Some zones prohibit certain types of developments entirely, affecting both residential and investment potential.
Key considerations include checking the property's zoning status (imar durumu) and understanding any upcoming municipal plans that might change an area's classification. These factors can influence everything from building height restrictions to potential rental income.
