Turkish Delight - You Get What You Pay For

Posted
AuthorAndrew Turner

A note recently issued by the Turkish Government has confirmed that foreigners who buy property worth at least $1million can obtain Turkish citizenship. The note confirms that citizenship will also be offered to foreigners who deposit a minimum of $3million in Turkish banks on the condition that they do not withdraw it for 3 years.

Foreign investment in real estate is on the decline in Turkey due largely to security concerns. Russians, Kuwaitis, Saudis, and Iraqis are the biggest investors and it remains to be seen whether the “carrot” of citizenship will be enough to halt the decline.

“Having the support of Marcus throughout what has been a very painful divorce has really helped me get through the last 18 months. Although this has personally been a very difficult process, I know that Marcus has done everything possible to make it as smooth as it can be. I really appreciate the honest, open feedback to all of my questions and also how quickly he responded to them. Above all else, Marcus really does seem to care about his clients and their families. I never had the feeling that this was just a job for Marcus, and I’m so grateful that I was fortunate enough to have had Marcus recommended to me when I did.”

“When you use a solicitor its usually in times of need, when you require expert advice and reassurance. This is exactly what our company has received from Hughes Paddison Solicitors and in particular Kimberly Whalen-Blake. Not only is Kimberly extremely well informed and professional; she is also personable and easy to communicate with. She responds to messages and emails promptly and goes over and above to assist. I would have no hesitation in recommending her services; and in the future, if necessary, I will definitely be calling on her expertise. ”

“ Hughes Paddison came highly recommended and they were not wrong. I am so glad I appointed Kim to represent me. It was a really difficult time and Kim swiftly and compassionately cut through to the crux of the issue and gave me such clear and great advice immediately. The outcome achieved was truly the best for myself and the organisation and avoided more stress for all parties involved, as it was solved very quickly. Most importantly for me, Kim handled the negotiations. The relief of handing this over to someone I completely trusted made a horrible situation much better. Many thanks to Kim and HP.”
