ONLY THE SMELL OF<br />
FRESH INK IS MISSING<br />
Bo Thygesen<br />
<strong>2Base</strong> Estate Agency<br />
Who doesn't remember the<br />
good old days where your<br />
morning coffee was enjoyed<br />
in peace and quite only<br />
accompagnied by the crisp<br />
sound of turning pages of a<br />
old-fashiioned newspaper?<br />
Lets just leave it there for a<br />
moment...<br />
Today things are very different<br />
and the fresh smell from the<br />
newly printed newspaper has<br />
been replaced by beep beep,<br />
bing bing, breaking news and<br />
the possibility to swipe in all<br />
directions every time your<br />
electronic gadgets report in<br />
on another life changing<br />
notification of greatest<br />
importance.<br />
At <strong>2Base</strong> we are not much<br />
better than others and we also<br />
want to have our part of your<br />
attention.<br />
We send out emails both<br />
before and after we cleaning<br />
your apartment, when we have<br />
a property offer and when a<br />
new blog is posted just to<br />
mention a few.<br />
And then there is Facebook<br />
where we inform you about<br />
everything from new<br />
properties, important Alanya<br />
news, cakes, cookies and tiny<br />
sweet kittys. The latter just once<br />
though....<br />
Sometimes this can all be a bit<br />
too much and when the<br />
informations are spread acress<br />
various platforms it can be<br />
difficult to maintain an overview<br />
of what is going and what is<br />
happening when and where.<br />
We therefor decided to collect<br />
and gather all of the best stories<br />
and information from our blog,<br />
Facebook, home page and buyers<br />
guide and wrap it into a crisp and<br />
newly designed online magazine.<br />
The smell of a freshly printed<br />
newspaper we did not manage<br />
to do but we still want you to<br />
enjoy the magazine peacefully<br />
and quite in your favourite<br />
armchair with just a cup of freshly<br />
brewed coffee to disturb you.<br />
First edition of the magazine<br />
is what you are reading now<br />
and we hope you will find the mix<br />
of serious blog posts, fun from<br />
Facebook mixed with other<br />
stories and information from<br />
the Turkish property market<br />
interesting and informative.<br />
Enjoy the magazine!<br />

The Public Bread Buffets have been renewed.<br />
The municipality of Alanya has renewed 12 bread sales<br />
outlets in the city center and 31 in the neighboring areas.<br />
The style of the new outlets reflects the architecture of<br />
old Alanya houses and the electricity is provided from<br />
solar energy panels placed on the roof.<br />
Some 15000 to 20000 pieces of bread are sold on a daily<br />
basis.<br />
Several times a year Alanya municipality<br />
is publishing a magazine<br />
named "Alanya Bülten" where they<br />
inform about new projects and happenings<br />
in the local area.<br />
Unfortunately the magazine is in<br />
Turkish only so we have handpicked<br />
the most relevant and important<br />
stories and will publish them over the<br />
next couple of weeks.<br />
Opening hours are 07:00 - 19:00 and both locals and<br />
tourists are welcome as customers.<br />
On the latest issue the new cable car<br />
system is on the frontpage and this<br />
is also where we will start our tour of<br />
the magazine.<br />
The cable cars are expected to open<br />
soon, and it seems like it will be only<br />
slightly delayed.<br />
The budget of the project is 19 million<br />
Turkish Lira and the system with<br />
its 17 cabins is expected to carry a<br />
maximum of 1130 people from the<br />
Damlatas Beach to the castle area<br />
per hour.<br />
Nothing beats good<br />
coffee and delicious cakes<br />

Alanya is famous for many things but most of all<br />
the long stretches of beautiful, sandy beaches.<br />
No matter if you want an action packed beach<br />
or your own deserted Robinson Crusoe beach<br />
you can find it in and around Alanya.<br />
When investing in a holiday home one of the<br />
most important questions to ask yourself is<br />
how close to the beach you want to live.<br />
Obviously everyone likes to live as close to the<br />
beach as possible, but beach front properties<br />
are also more expensive and often in more<br />
crowded area.<br />
We have therefor asked our customers exactly<br />
that question: What is the maximum distance<br />
to the beach your holiday home should have?<br />
The winner is "less than 1 km" with 44% of the<br />
votes while 28% says they want to be "less than<br />
500m" away.<br />
Interestingly only 8% wants to live "less than<br />
200m" from the beach.<br />
There is a first time for everything. Actually we<br />
never thought it would come to this but here we<br />
go...<br />
What do you think? Is living close to the sea<br />
better or do you prefer the advantages of being<br />
further away?<br />
We are posting a picture of some sweet kittens<br />
on our facebook wall. But this is not only to get<br />
cheap likes and comments.<br />
There is actually a story behind.<br />
This morning a member of our sales team had<br />
to evaluate a penthouse. The key was with the<br />
neighbor so we met up with him and entered the<br />
apartment.<br />
To our surprise we found these sweet and<br />
newborn kittens in the bed room on the top floor.<br />
The owner had left a bathroom window open and<br />
mummy-cat had entered and found this perfect<br />
place for her kittens.<br />
Luckily the neighbor is an animal lover and he<br />
promised to find a good solution for the kittens.<br />
Being an estate agent in Alanya is never boring,<br />
every day brings a new surprise<br />
Mondays first event is our morning meeting.<br />
This always goes a little easier when served with<br />
hot coffee, Turkish tea and a fresh simits.<br />
This weeks work plan was agreed upon and luckily<br />
everyone seemed to be fresh and full of energy.<br />
Lets hope it will last all the way through the week.<br />

You would be amazed how many of our<br />
Scandinavian clients who use their bikes<br />
when visiting us at office.<br />
At times it actually looks like we are more a<br />
bike shop than a real estate agent when bike<br />
after bike is parked in front of our office.<br />
Erik and Ulla from Royal Park in Tosmur is no<br />
exception.<br />
We wish them a great and safe ride....<br />
A brand new and recommendable restaurant<br />
has opened in Cikcilli.<br />
It is called "Kate & Leo" and they are serving<br />
pasta, pizza, wraps and other dishes.<br />
Just as we do they love coffee and are open from<br />
early morning to late evening.<br />
Go try it out, we are sure you will like it.<br />
"Kate & Leo" is located in front of the university<br />
in Cikcilli and can be a bit hard to find.<br />
They also have a web site: www.katenleo.club<br />

Is there any better document than the "tapu"?<br />
Yet again Mr. Candemir has pulled the right<br />

A beautiful new home has been added<br />
to our portfolio. A bit unusual the seller is<br />
an American couple.<br />
We had a word with John about their<br />
time here in Alanya:<br />
" We first visited Alanya 12 years ago<br />
while working in Germany. We fell in love<br />
with the town and the people here and<br />
purchased our apartment.<br />
My wife Debbie flew down 8 times and<br />
put her Interior Decorating skills to work<br />
right away, supervising everything from<br />
the tiles on the floor, to custom cabinets,<br />
to special appliances and even placement<br />
of electrical outlets. Inside, our<br />
home is like no other, designed to make<br />
occupants feel like they are truly relaxing<br />
at the beach.<br />
Now, retiring to family and our USA<br />
home in Northwest Montana and also<br />
our age is forcing us to sell our dream.<br />
We truly enjoyed every minute living in<br />
Maple Leaf Apartments in Alanya,<br />

Understand your Turkish title deed<br />
When purchasing a property the most important<br />
document is without any doubt the title<br />
deed, since it proofs the ownership of the<br />
property.<br />
In this blog post we will take your through the<br />
current procedures for obtaining the title deed<br />
as well as explaining what kind of information<br />
you find on the printed version of the deed.<br />
We also want to point out very clearly that the<br />
printed version of the deed does not hold any<br />
other value than the paper it has been printed<br />
on.<br />
You can see it as a kind of diploma and should<br />
you loose the printed version there will be no<br />
consequences.<br />
Even if someone that you do not trust gets hold<br />
of the printed version of your title deed, it can<br />
not be abused.<br />
The ownership is registered at the land registry<br />
office and it is the information in their computer<br />
systems that are valid.<br />
Until recently the process of obtaining a title<br />
deed was somehow complicated and time<br />
consuming.<br />
Luckily things have improved for the better and<br />
today the process goes as follows...<br />
Via an online system an appointment for initiating<br />
the process is obtained from the land registry<br />
office.<br />
Relevant information such as the public evaluation<br />
of the property, buyer and sellers personal<br />
information etc are collected and handed in to<br />
the land registry office.<br />
The information is then controlled and validated<br />
by the land registry office after which buyer and<br />
seller are informed about the fees related to the<br />
transaction.<br />
26
Turkeyblog.2base.com<br />
Seller and buyer must then pay these fees into a<br />
bank account belonging to the land registry office.<br />
After that the title deed transactions is ready to<br />
be initiated.<br />
This final process takes place at the land<br />
registry office where buyer and seller meet<br />
and sign the relevant documents.<br />
Immediately after signing the information is fed<br />
into the computer system and the transaction is<br />
then confirmed and finalized.<br />
The entire process normally takes 2-4 days.<br />
With the transaction completed it is time to take a<br />
closer look at your title deed.<br />
As you might have noticed it is in Turkish and not<br />
that easy to understand.<br />
This is why we have made this walk-through of<br />
the information that can be found on your title<br />
deed.<br />
1: Information related to the location of the property<br />
such as region, area and city.<br />
2: Photo of the owner. In case there is no photo<br />
on your title deed it does not make any difference.<br />
10: Share of ownership of the common areas.<br />
11: Number of the apartment.<br />
12: Information on seller and buyer.<br />
13: Information about current owner and their<br />
shares.<br />
14: Internal information used by the land registry<br />
office in case the property belongs to an<br />
area that has been joined with another area or<br />
in case there are any claims such as easements<br />
or other on the property.<br />
15: Issuing date of the title deed and reference<br />
number.<br />
16: Internal information used by the land registry<br />
office in case the property belongs to an<br />
area that has been joined with another area or<br />
in case there are any claims such as easements<br />
or other on the property.<br />
17: Stamp and signature of the title deeds office.<br />
Again we want to remind you that the paper version<br />
of the title deed holds no actual value and<br />
that you can easily obtain a new print in case<br />
you have lost your initial version.<br />
3: The land registry numbering and location of<br />
your property.<br />
4: Type of construction, for instance plot or the<br />
number of buildings on the plot.<br />
5: Size of the plot<br />
6: Information showing if the building is a part of<br />
the city plan. Here you should see "paftasinda" or<br />
"planlanadir".<br />
7: Information about the legal status of the property.<br />
Should be "kat irtifaki" or "kat mülkeyeti".<br />
In case it is "kat irtifaki" you should check the<br />
status of the "ferdi iskan".<br />
8: Public valuation in Turkish Lira.<br />
9: Type of property such as villa, apartment or<br />
duplex.<br />

Alanyas new ring road is on its way<br />
The last couple of years Turkey has started<br />
to invest heavily in new infrastructure.<br />
Most notably are the new tunnel and bridge<br />
across Bosphurus in Istanbul and the<br />
construction of a new mega airport that will<br />
replace the existing and already pretty big<br />
Atatürk Airport.<br />
Also in Alanya there are some new projects underway<br />
and one of the most exiting - but not so much talked<br />
about - is the new ring road.<br />
The current ring road is known as the 35 meter road,<br />
presumably because it is 35 m wide. This road starts<br />
at the entrance of Alanya at the Dinek/ Luna Park<br />
area and ends just before the Dim River in Tosmur.<br />
The new road is known as the 50 m road and<br />
construction is on-going as you read this. Interestingly<br />
enough there is not much public information<br />
available about the road, but here is what we know so<br />
far.<br />
The road will start just west of the public<br />
hospital "Devlet Hastanesi" which is approximaetely<br />
where the 35 meter road and the 25<br />
meter road joins.<br />
Construction is being done in two stages. Stage one<br />
brings the road from Alanya to Kargicak, stage two<br />
from Kargicak to Gazipasa.<br />
The start of the road is west of Devlet hastanesi from<br />
where the road will continue via the northern part of<br />
Cikcilli and cross the Dim river on bridge<br />
approximately two kilometers from the beach road.<br />
Immediately after the crossing of the river the road<br />
will continue to Kestel via a tunnel.<br />
The work to excavate the tunnels are currently work<br />
in progress.<br />
After reaching Kestel and Mahmutlar on the<br />
northside of each area the exact path is currently not<br />
known.<br />
But what will this mean to Alanya?<br />
We all know and see ourselves that traffic in and<br />
around Alanya is getting heavier and heavier.<br />
This new ring road will be warmly welcomed and<br />
heavy traffic moving around Alanya will now be able<br />
to do so without disturbing residential areas.<br />
The beach roads will still be busy so apartment<br />
owners living on the first line will still have to live<br />
with quite some noise from the beach road between<br />
Alanya and Kargicak.<br />
But much of the heavy traffic and trucks will now be<br />
moved away and the traffic on the 25m, 35m and the<br />
beach road will surely be less crowded and stressful.<br />
Stage one of the road is planned to open in <strong>2017</strong>, so<br />
we keep our fingers crossed and hope that there will<br />
be no delays.<br />

Getting to Alanya: How to find<br />
the best and cheapest tickets<br />
Discussions about flight tickets and how to<br />
get the best and cheapest deals is always a<br />
hot topic for home owners in Turkey.<br />
Based on our own experience we made this<br />
guide which we hope will prove both useful and<br />
informative.<br />
Where to fly to...<br />
This is quite simple since there are just two<br />
options. Most well-known is Antalya Airport<br />
(Airport code AYT) located 120 km west of Alanya<br />
with newcomer Gazipasa airport (Airport code<br />
GZP and often called Alanya Gazipasa Airport,<br />
Antalya Gazipasa or even Antalya Alanya airport<br />
so be careful not to mix up between these two<br />
airports) located 40 km east of Alanya.<br />
Neither of the two airports has public<br />
transportation in direction Alanya. Instead<br />
several airlines offer free or inexpensive shuttle<br />
services to and from the airport direction Alanya.<br />
30<br />
Driving a rental car to Alanya will take you<br />
around one hour and 45 minutes from Antalya<br />
airport and 30 minutes from Gazipasa airport.<br />
Conditions of the road is good but you need to<br />
remember that the traffic in Turkey might be a<br />
bit more hectic than you are used to.<br />
Several travel agencies and transfer companies<br />
offers both group and private transfers, which<br />
must be booked before arrival but at a much<br />
lower price than the airport taxis.<br />
Private transfers can also be booked via our<br />
onlineshop www.my2baseshop.com<br />
Direct or with a stopover<br />
Everyone prefers a direct flight but sometimes<br />
a stopover is necessary. At times reasonable<br />
priced tickets includes a stopover, at other times<br />
there might not be any direct flights from your<br />
home town.
Turkeyblog.2base.com<br />
The stopover normally takes place in Istanbul<br />
which has two international airports (currently<br />
construction on a 3rd international airport in<br />
Istanbul has started, but it wont open any time<br />
soon) with the Atatürk Airport being the biggest<br />
and most well-known and the Sabiha Gökcen<br />
Airport being the smaller but still very<br />
well-equipped alternative.<br />
Airlines from Turkey<br />
Several airlines from within Turkey can fly you in.<br />
We all know Turkish Airlines and the name says it<br />
all and the company is by far the biggest player in<br />
the Turkish aviation sector.Alternative companies<br />
are Pegasus, Atlas Jet and Sunexpress which are<br />
all worth checking out.<br />
Airlines from Europe<br />
This list might get pretty long and depend on<br />
which country you live in so we wont mention<br />
any names. Instead lets take a look at how you<br />
find the tickets sold by European airlines.<br />
Regular flights<br />
Many European airlines offer regular flights to<br />
Turkey as a part of their program.<br />
These tickets can either be booked via the<br />
company web sites or found via search engines<br />
that are specialized in finding flights ticket from a<br />
variety of sources.<br />
One of the most popular is www.momondo.com<br />
and also www.google.com/flights does the job.<br />
Charter and package holidays<br />
During low-season ordering a package holiday<br />
which includes both flight, transfer and accommodation<br />
can be cheaper than just ordering the<br />
flight ticket itself.Home owners can take advantage<br />
of this and stay in their own holiday home<br />
instead of the designated hotel.<br />
Flight only<br />
Not all charter companies will sell flight-only<br />
tickets, but some do. Often these tickets will<br />
only be available directly from the company<br />
itself and not via search engines such as Momondo<br />
or Google.<br />
Please be aware that just because a charter<br />
company sell one-way tickets from Europe to<br />
Turkey, they might not sell tickets the opposite<br />
way from Turkey to Europe.<br />
This has to do with rules and regulations.<br />
Do you know a way to find the best tickets<br />
that we did not mention, then let is know<br />
and we will update this guide.<br />
Happy flying and hope to see you soon in Turkey<br />

Checklist for property in Turkey<br />
It is hard not to get tempted by a holiday<br />
home in sunny Turkey close to the sea.<br />
But before you decide to go all in and buy your<br />
own holiday home there are a few but very<br />
important and essential criteria that the holiday<br />
home in question must fulfill.<br />
Type of ownership<br />
Also in Turkey there are different types of<br />
ownership. Make sure that your property is a<br />
owner-occupied property and not part of any<br />
company, joint venture or time-share.<br />
Are a foreigner allowed to own?<br />
Not all properties in Turkey can be sold to<br />
foreigners due to restrictions on location and type.<br />
Make sure that your property can be sold to you as<br />
a foreigner.<br />
Debt<br />
Make sure that no debt or any kind of ipotek are<br />
transferred to your name via the purchasing<br />
contract or transfer of title deed.<br />
Ferdi iskan (habitation certificate)<br />
Make sure that the ferdi iskan of the property is<br />
either already in place or can be easily issued.<br />
Ferdi iskan is connected to another permission named<br />
ön iskan. In case the ön iskan of the complex/<br />
building is not present you must be aware and<br />
understand the consequence of this.<br />
As a general rule you should only buy property in<br />
case the ön iskan is either already in place or can<br />
be issued without any further delays.<br />
Contract of sale<br />
The contract of sale must be thorough and<br />
detailed.<br />
The most important clauses are:<br />
- Terms and conditions for payments<br />
- Hand over<br />
- Guarantees<br />
- Termination of the contract<br />
The title deed as well as seller and buyers ID must<br />
be a part of the contact as attachments.<br />
Make sure that it is always seller himself who<br />
personally signs the contract of sale.<br />
Do not accept that a real estate agent or another<br />
3rd party signs on behalf of seller.<br />
Unless it is clearly specified in the contract all<br />
payments must always be paid directly to seller.<br />
Please note that the above only represents the<br />
absolute most important things to consider.<br />
We also recommend you to always carry out a<br />
detailed check on the property that you are<br />
planning to buy.<br />
Read more about that in the blog "Essential<br />
checklist before investing in a holiday home in<br />
Turkye".<br />

Essential checklist before investing<br />
in a holiday home in Turkey<br />
Investing in a holiday home in a Turkey is<br />
simultaneously both an terrifying and amazing<br />
experience.<br />
Terrifying since you do not now local customs,<br />
rules and regulations and therefore are<br />
operating in unknown territory.<br />
Amazing since you are about to purchase the<br />
holiday home of your dreams, a place where you<br />
and your family will spend many happy hours.<br />
But before finalizing the deal and signing the<br />
contract there are several areas which are worth<br />
paying attention to.<br />
Spending some time investigating before taking<br />
the final decision can save you both time, a lot of<br />
trouble and of course your hard earned money.<br />
By this we do not mean finding yourself an<br />
respectable and licensed estate agent who speak<br />
your language and can offer you a secure<br />
financial deal.<br />
36<br />
This is of course still an absolute “must”.<br />
But after finding your dream property and<br />
having received and reviewed the first initial<br />
information it is always a good idea to take a<br />
closer look at some key information.<br />
Owners union<br />
Ask for summaries from the last couple of meetings.<br />
Are there issues related to the finances and<br />
are all owners paying their monthly fees?<br />
Composition of owners<br />
From where do the owners come and do they<br />
use their apartments as a holiday home or<br />
all-year residence? One is not to be prefered to<br />
the other, but it might be important for the way<br />
you plan to use your apartment.<br />
Daily maintenance<br />
How does the daily maintenance of pool,<br />
elevator and common area work? Does the<br />
caretaker live in the building or is he only visiting<br />
a few times per week? Does that satisfy your<br />
expectations?
Turkeyblog.2base.com<br />
Elevators<br />
Do these have all needed permissions?<br />
Pool<br />
Which periods is the pool open? Some complexes<br />
choose to open the pool only for a few month.<br />
Does that fit into your needs and periods where<br />
you plan to use the apartment?<br />
Planned future expenses<br />
Are there already now plans for paint work or<br />
other renovations in the complex?<br />
Not to forget<br />
Do not forget that you still need to control the judicial<br />
status of the apartment including title deed,<br />
the hand over process, habitation certificate (ferdi<br />
iskan) as well as having detailed and thorough<br />
purchase contract from a licensed estate agent.<br />
Should you have any questions please do not<br />
hesitate to contact us.<br />
