PROPERTY IN SARIGERME VILLAGE

There are many reasons why should you purchase or rent a property in the village of Sarigerme or surrounding area such as Dalaman

To start with, it is the weather which gives you pleasant temperatures throughout the year so much so that you won't need a heating system most of the year.

You can wake up every morning to bird tweets and bright clear sky. Living cost is rather cheap in Turkey when it is compared to the uk and europe with plenty of weekly markets in the area where one can purchase the most fresh and delicious fruitand vegetables direct from the farmers.

If you are a Sun Lover, Fishing enthusiastic, Bird watcher, beer lover, see and nature admirer, sunset hunter, golfer, what ever you like to do most there is always something to do and see for everyone from all walks of lifes as the surrounding area provides you with great range of to-do list. Water and electricity is half the price compared to uk.

Not to mention bills like council tax are ten times less and your bins get collected every day :)

Sounds all good, does it not ? However I have to point out here on something rather important before I contunie to tell you all the nice things. Do not become an statistic by not doing your homework carefully.

There are incidents in Turkey where customers like your selfs ending with their dreams shattert. Usually the story is same nice starts but lots tears at the end. Take your time and do it with right people.

Speaking the devil I like to recommend here Mr.Ibrahim Sevgi who is well known with his trustworthy personality in the surrounding area, he knows the area like the back of his hand. He owns the Sevgi Hotel in the Village. Please get in touch with him, he can advice you very well in every detail. If you dont know how to get in touch with him, contact me so I can pass it on to you. Now back to where we left ;

Crime rates are signafintly lower then most parts of europe. The Turkish culture allows you to have a laid back life style. All year round operating Dalaman Airport being within the short travel distance in the area makes it even more easy to travel back and forward.

For the same price you would pay in the UK for a tiny cottage or two bedroom flat in england one can actually purchase a nice spacious Villa with a garden possibly with a swimming pool in sarigerme village or in the surrounding area such as Dalaman, Dalyan.

Or alternatively you can consider renting a villa option if you are not sure or not willing to settle for a long period of time. Thus gives you the flexibility of freedom by renting a nice house, villa or an apartment not more then 5K a year.

This way you can find out how you would feel about living in Turkey without investing your savings into something you are not fully sure of.

Type of properties are not limited in the area, ranging from top notch Villas with swimming pools and large garden with citrus trees, Typical Turkish Farm Houses,lush apartments with communal swimming pools and gardens to ordinary basic apartments in the village or nearby towns. You can even build your house with your own style and design. Possibilities are endless.

I have to mention here that building your own house from scratch to completion in full, won't take more then five months as the weather is always ideal for construction.

When buying a property in Turkey, the legal procedures are really quite straight forward.

Avoid any problems

Do your homework well and work with a professional very good English speaking estate agent who can provide you with many references. Talk to these references, as many as possible before you commit your self in to purchasing a property.

Make sure the Title Deed is properly checked (see below)

Once a property has been chosen, You must carry out the searches on the Title Deeds and ensure that it's clear of debts and that the seller is actually the person detailed on the Title Deed.

Thereafter a deposit upto 20% of the asking price is placed in a bank account in Turkey and paid to the seller on your behalf, but sometimes this figure is higher for new build properties .

Then there is a wait of 3-6 months for the paperwork to be cleared by the officials army departments in Izmir, Ankara and Mugla.

As soon as the Title Deeds Office receives clearance from the army department confirming that the property in question is not within an military area, the remaining balance plus any additional costs are transferred to the same bank account and the Title Deeds can be exchanged.

Unlike the UK, it is not necessary to use a solicitor to conduct the conveyancing for you.

The Title Deeds formalities can all be carried out in your absence, by leaving a Power of Attorney with your solicitor.

Should you decide to use solicitor, you need to go to notary to arrange this Power of Attorney ,there is an official translator within the notary's office to ensure that you understand the Power of Attorney.

Then open a bank account in your name and take the necessary photos required for the paper work.
