Not having any restrictions on real estate investments
Turkish citizens can buy faster and with less bureaucratic procedures than foreigners.
For Turkish citizens, it is possible to get a loan from Turkish banks for home purchases, whereas as a foreigner it is difficult to get a loan from Turkish banks.
Turkish citizens can buy a property in any region without being bound by address restrictions and do not have to obtain a residence permit or work permit after the purchase.
Easy bank account opening
Opening a bank account in Turkey can be a really difficult process if you are not a Turkish citizen. In some cases, if you are a citizen of a restricted country, it is necessary to try very hard to open a bank account. Recently, there have been serious problems especially for Russian and Iranian citizens to open bank accounts in Turkey.
Also, even if you are in Turkey legally, a bank is not obliged to open an account for you. Generally, banks do not open bank accounts for people without a registered address and bank branches have to get approval from the bank headquarters (from Ankara) for the opening of bank accounts for foreigners. After you make the necessary application from a bank branch, your documents go to the bank headquarters and you need to get the necessary approval there. So opening a bank account in Turkey as a foreigner is a long and time-consuming process. However, a Turkish citizen can open an account in 15 minutes by going to the bank.
In some cases, banks charge extra fees for opening a bank account and opening a bank account for foreigners is a laborious and expensive task.
