Owning Property in the UK Is Far Easier Than You Think
Through our partnership with Homefinders, we remove the obstacles facing investors who wish to acquire property in the UK. We hold the first meeting at our Yaşamkent office and manage the London process from start to finish through a single point of contact, with support in Turkish; at every step, you know exactly what you are signing.

Evin Gayrimenkul brings Homefinders’ residential and commercial property options in London to investors in Türkiye. The Homefinders Türkiye Office in Yaşamkent is run by Ms. Ayhan Kardaşlar: your meetings are held with her, while communication with the London team, offers and paperwork are handled from our office.
Before moving into real estate, Ms. Kardaşlar worked in accounting and design for various corporate companies in Türkiye. She combines the analytical perspective gained from this background with strong interpersonal skills.

Why Property in the UK?
A safe, transparent market that rewards the long term: the UK offers Turkish investors both security and the opportunity for high returns.
Full Ownership Rights for Foreigners
Turkish citizens can buy property in the UK without any restrictions. Both freehold (full ownership including the land) and leasehold (long-term ownership of a flat) are possible.
One of the World’s Most Trusted Legal Systems
Title records, contracts and sale and purchase transactions are transparent and legally protected; ownership disputes are very rare.
Strong Rental Demand and High Yields
The country’s chronic housing shortage keeps demand for rental properties consistently high. In major cities, rental yields can reach the 5–8% range.
Long-Term Capital Growth
The UK property market has risen steadily in value for many years. Your investment delivers a twofold return through both capital growth and rental income.
Protect Your Savings in Sterling
Periods when sterling temporarily weakens create favourable entry points for Turkish investors. A sterling-denominated asset provides strong protection over the long term.
Buying Through a Company (SPV)
You can buy the property in your own name or through a UK limited company (SPV). A company structure offers advantages in terms of tax planning and portfolio management.
Education, Safety and Quality of Life
With its world-class universities, safe cities and high standard of living, the UK also offers an ideal investment environment for families.
An International and Liquid Market
The UK is one of the most international property markets in the world. This makes resale easier and helps the property retain its value.
Financing with a Low Down Payment
Through our partnership with Homefinders, eligible investors can obtain a UK mortgage with a down payment of only 25–30%.
Guaranteed Rent and Professional Management
Through our partnership with Homefinders, guaranteed rent is offered on selected developments, and the full management of your property is taken care of, with no need for you to live in the UK.
Rent Guarantee Insurance (RGI)
Through our partnership with Homefinders, your rental income is protected against potential risks by specialist insurance policies, giving you peace of mind for an investment you manage from afar.
Guaranteed Returns in Sterling
The long-term guaranteed rent models offered through our partnership with Homefinders keep both your rental yield and your capital growth in foreign currency. This is a major advantage for Turkish investors.
Why Is Letting Property in the UK More Advantageous?
The UK’s letting system is built on clear rules that protect landlords and on a strong currency. A brief comparison with Türkiye:
Ease of Eviction
Evicting a tenant who fails to pay rent or causes problems is quick, and the rules are clear.
The eviction process can take years.
Annual Rent Increase
Updating the rent to market level once a year is standard practice.
Bringing the rent up to market level is often not as straightforward.
Rent Guarantee Insurance
You can take out rent guarantee insurance (RGI) to secure your rental income.
No such insurance is available.
Income in Sterling
Your rental income is in sterling. Between October 2025 and October 2026, sterling rose by approximately 18% against the Turkish lira, which means your rent also increased by this amount in TL terms.
The Turkish lira is losing value against inflation.
Exchange rates are European Central Bank data (22 October 2025: 56.02 TL, 22 October 2026: 66.38 TL). Yield and exchange rate information is based on historical data and is indicative only; it does not guarantee future results.
How Does the Process Work?
When buying property in the UK, there is no need to run back and forth between different organisations and people. We manage the entire process transparently, without you having to leave Türkiye.
