Yes. Turkey allows foreigners to purchase real estate in most areas of the country, with relatively few restrictions. Citizens of most nations – including the UK, EU countries, USA, Canada, and many others – can buy property in Turkey on a freehold basis just like Turkish citizens. You do not need to be a resident of Turkey to buy property; even first-time visitors can legally acquire real estate without a prior residence permit. Foreign buyers receive the same ownership rights (title deed, or Tapu) and can rent out, resell, or bequeath the property, subject to Turkish laws.
