American Investments in Turkey
A promising future is waiting for the foreign investment in Turkey: The US specially.
Turkey has always been a destination for those who want to enjoy civilization, culture, and nature. Also, because of its growing economy, Turkey has become a destination for foreign investors, and the United States is one of the ten most investing countries in it.
Why are Americans investing in Turkey?
The real estate investment in Turkey by foreigners reached 189 thousand properties between 2015 and 2020. Over the last three years, the United States has been among the twenty most nationalities seeking real estate investment in Turkey.
According to the Turkish Statistical Institute, the number of apartments bought by foreign investors from the United States was 658 apartments in 2019, and 623 apartments in 2020. Plus, it reached 1014 apartments between January to September 2021. Then, why are Americans seeking investment in Turkey?
One of the reasons to invest in Turkey is the facilities provided by the Turkish government to encourage real estate investment in its lands, like the Turkish real estate law. According to Turkish real estate law number 2644 article 35, foreign individuals and companies are allowed to buy and own properties in Turkey. Another facility could be the VAT exemption for those who have their first investment in Turkey.
Indicators about promising future for foreign investment in Turkey
Turkey is always offering new chances to attract foreign investors, as it is one of the most welcoming countries to new investments in its lands. This could be shown in the positive impact on its economy. Since 2003, Turkey has attracted 165 billion dollar foreign direct investments.
Meanwhile, the real estate investment market in Turkey is growing rapidly and full of promises. Last year (2020), the real estate market in Turkey attracted a 4.4 billion dollar investment equivalent to 57% of the total inflow of foreign direct investment in Turkey which was 7.8 billion dollars. This could be because of the facilities Turkey put to encourage foreign investors like:
Getting Turkish nationality: when you own and invest in real property in Turkey, you will not only get good profits ( more than 20% after 3 years of buying the property), but also you will be able to get Turkish nationality if your property's price was 250,000 dollar at least.
You can get resident permission easily: The Turkish government gives resident permission easily to those who own property on its lands, and their families also ( wife and children under 18 years old). The resident permission will allow the investors, besides living in Turkey, to export furniture and vehicles and establish companies in Turkey.
These indicators promise a good and safe real estate investment future.

Dubai Residential Real Estate Market Forecast to 2040
Residential real estate prices in Dubai have seen strong increases recently, driven by high demand from both local and international buyers. There was a year-on-year increase of about 20% in home prices during the third quarter of 2024, and the average sales price in 2024 rose by about 20% to approximately 1,597 AED per square foot. These significant increases came after a period of moderate growth between 2018 and 2020, confirming the return of momentum to the Dubai real estate market after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Prices are expected to continue their upward trajectory in the medium term, but at a more stable pace. Knight Frank estimates an additional rise of about 8% in 2025, and local real estate developers expect annual price increases of between 5-8% in the coming few years. These forecasts are based on strong and sustainable demand but also consider an increase in supply and a better market balance. Over the long term up to 2040, prices are likely to continue rising supported by population growth and planned major projects, although there may be short-term correction cycles. For example, villa prices currently exceed the previous peak levels (in 2014) by more than 30%, which means the market may experience a relative slowdown or minor correction after periods of significant increase before continuing its sustainable upward trend.
