Property in Alanya

Alanya Property Benefits from its Unique Location

Alanya property has grown into one of the great stories in the world of overseas property this year, and looks well capable of dominating reports throughout this year and next.

Usually when statements like the one above are made, they are in reference to a hot new market emerging onto the scene. But Alanya has the largest population of British expats in the world -- the keyword being expats.

Stretching out from the foot of the Taurus mountain range and out into the Mediterranean Ocean on a land-mass, Alanya is one of the best tourist spots in Turkey.

Surrounded by sea and many great beaches on three sides, most of Alanya's many shops and restaurants have sea-views, matched only by the views of inland properties as you get onto the raised land to the back of the town. Alanya also has a great little harbour.

All this makes Alanya one of the most popular tourist spots in Turkey, for those in the know. Thousands of Turks join those from neighbouring countries in flocking to Alanya during the summer season.

Property in Alanya Unstoppable with International Airport

The only reason why property in Alanya has never received the same level of attention from holiday home buyers and fly-to-let investors, is the lack of an international airport. This is all about to change that is why property in Alanya is such a hot-topic right now.

The Alanya Gazipasa airport, built over a decade ago has a history marred with false hopes, disputes and disappointment. That was until it was taken over by TAV last year. The airport is currently serving the domestic route between Alanya and Istanbul, and having the runways extended to serve international aircraft from next year.

Gazipasa going international will almost certainly spur a wave of development in the town, and a great increase in interest from foreign holiday home buyers, and investors.
