Verified facts and current context

NVI states that the real-estate route to citizenship requires property of at least USD 400,000 (or equivalent) with a three-year no-sale annotation. Meeting that legal threshold is separate from whether the property is a sound investment.

Current official context before deciding

NVI states that the real-estate route requires property of at least USD 400,000 (or equivalent) with a three-year no-sale annotation in the registry. Legal eligibility does not make the property a good investment automatically; price, risk and liquidity still need separate analysis.

TKGM states that a Döviz Alım Belgesi (foreign-exchange purchase document) is required when a foreign natural person acquires property by purchase in Türkiye. The currency is sold through a bank to the Central Bank and the bank issues the document for the title transaction, so the transfer route should be coordinated before final payment.
