Groundbreaking Reforms to Simplify Lease Procedures in Turkey
The Ministry of Finance Launches a New Era for Electronic Lease Contracts via the e-Devlet Portal
The Turkish Ministry of Treasury and Finance has announced its readiness to introduce a new law requiring rental contracts to be signed electronically through the e-Government portal, "e-Devlet." This initiative aims to simplify and expedite the rental process between property owners and tenants, with implementation expected in the near future. Licensed real estate agents will also be able to use this system by the end of the year.
The electronic lease contract system will be introduced in two phases: in the first phase, property owners and tenants will be able to complete rental agreements directly through the "e-Devlet" portal, where the owner creates the contract, and the tenant approves it electronically. The second phase will enable licensed real estate agents to prepare contracts and send them to both the owner and tenant for approval through the portal.
Minister of Treasury and Finance, Mehmet Şimşek, stated that these reforms represent "fundamental changes aimed at reducing bureaucracy, saving citizens time and effort, and facilitating access to property valuation information across Turkey."

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.
