Property investors may have heard the buzz about Turkey – its strong economy, growing tourism and booming real estate market. But when it comes to choosing where to invest in property in Turkey in particular, it pays to do some research into the varying regions and what they have to offer to potential purchasers. Here, experts in property in the country, House Sales Turkey (http://www.housesalesturkey.com/), looks at what purchasers can expect to find from the Antalya Province.

The Antalya Province is found in the south-west of Turkey and is the fastest growing region in the country. Its main city, also called Antalya, is Turkey’s most popular seaside resort, which is why most people outside of Turkey are familiar with the name. As one would expect from an international tourism destination, Antalya has a great deal of choice when it comes to holiday-style properties. Indeed, people looking for villas in Turkey may well look to Antalya as one of the first options. It’s thought that nearly a third of all holidaymakers visiting Turkey choose Antalya, so it comes as little surprise that the Antalya Province is high up the list of purchase destinations for property investors.

Statistics also indicate that around 30% of all foreign purchasers of real estate in Turkey buy in the beach resort city of Alanya, located on the southern coast of the Antalya Province. The resort’s balmy Mediterranean climate, beautiful natural scenery and low cost of living attract second home owners and a growing number of expatriates and retirees. And where these sectors of the property market go, so do the investors. Well appointed two-bedroom apartments in and around the resort of Alanya are among the most sought-after in Turkey from a property investment point of view.

But the Antalya Province is not just about sun and sea, and therefore potential purchasers of real estate in Turkey shouldn’t just see this region as offering beach-front villas. There is also a wealth of world-class golfing opportunities in this region, opening up a whole new buy-to-let market for owners of the right property. For instance, Belek in Antalya Province boasts the Cornelia Golf Club and Resort, designed by Nick Faldo, while Colin Montgomerie is behind the eighteen-hole golf course at the Papillon Hotel outside of Antalya town. People looking for golf property in Turkey often look first to the Antalya Province, further broadening the appeal of property in this region.
