It is possible to come across many foreign individuals living in Turkey recently.

Now, let's examine the process and conditions of buying a house with a loan together.
Credit Application Conditions of Foreigners
If foreign nationals are residing in Turkey, they must submit their residence and work permits to the bank in order to obtain a loan. Banks usually require a 12/24 month residence or work permit. Work permit or residence permit alone may not be sufficient for foreigners to apply for a loan. In this case, banks can also demand guarantors from investors. Banks request guarantors from Turkish citizens in case of possible deportation from Turkey. If an application is made to purchase a real estate, it is an important detail to present the title deed of the real estate, electricity and water bills to the bank.
Documents showing the 3-month income of foreigners working in Turkey, such as salary slips, are among the documents requested by the bank. Within the scope of this condition, it is not possible for unemployed individuals to take out loans. However, in order for these people to be able to take out loans, it may be requested to submit bank account movements showing their income in their own country. Apart from all these, the passport and the photocopy of the passport must be submitted to the banks along with the application form.

Expertise Transactions
After your loan is approved, an appraisal process begins in order to calculate the value of the house you want. The value of the house you like is determined by the appraisal and you can use a loan for 80% of this value. 20% of the value of the house must be deposited in advance in the bank.
Completion of Documents for Loan Application
The above-mentioned documents and, if any, other documents requested by the bank must be fully prepared and submitted to the bank. Otherwise, a positive outcome of the loan process cannot be expected.
Approval of Credit Application
After the above-mentioned steps and the complete submission of the documents, the loan approval process begins. The bank examines the submitted documents and makes a positive or negative turn. In this way, you can find out whether you can buy a house with a loan.
Deed and Mortgage Process
With the approval of the housing loan by the bank, deed transactions are carried out together with the bank lawyer or branch officer. It is necessary to go to the land registry office for these transactions. Transfer and mortgage transactions related to the house to be purchased are carried out in the title deed office. In the absence of any setback by the bank's lawyer or branch officer, a mortgage is placed on the title deed. After this process, the bank is returned and the process is concluded. Necessary payment is made to the seller of the house.
Documents Required While Going to the Land Registry
There are some necessary documents for deed transactions. When you want to make an appointment with the title deed office and do the deed transactions, you must first prepare these documents. The documents in question are as follows.
