Cross-Party Consistency Check — Preliminary sale contract

Primary official evidence

Turkish law gives particular legal effects to real-estate sale promises made in the required form, and TKGM publishes procedures for annotation in the land register. Verify the form and any claimed annotation from the official record rather than from the contract label alone. Compare the same identifiers across seller, buyer, representative, issuer and official record; a material mismatch needs reconciliation from the competent source.

Key verification points

Buyer and seller identity data, and any representative capacity, should refer to the same parties across the operative contract, amendments and official application. Resolve material name, identity-number or authority differences before further commitment.

Document and identity reconciliation

The contract should identify the intended property unambiguously and be checked against the available title/registry data: location, parcel/block where applicable, independent unit and ownership details. Do not rely on a project marketing name alone.

Timing and change risk

Compare the operative contract and signed amendments for total price, currency, payment dates, credited amounts and balance. A payment instruction that conflicts with the signed contract should be clarified and documented before funds move.

Decision standard

Identify the latest operative amendment and read it together with the original contract. Any change to parties, property, price, deadlines or payment terms should also be reflected in the closing file where relevant.
