Property in Side

Property in Side is among the most popular in Turkey. Not least because Side is one of Turkey's most popular tourist spots in Turkey, and in fact it is somewhat of a microcosm of all that is offered by summer resort holiday destinations in Turkey.

"The Med", who hasn't heard and said that phrase time and time again, not least because it quickly came to conjure up images of sunshine, beaches, and sipping sangria under incredibly gorgeous sunsets -- in short: holidays on the med. The phrase was coined when the Mediterranean destinations in the EU (Spain, Greece, Italy) were opened up to travellers from Britain and around the world in the eighties. Property in Side offers the chance to find affordable properties on a sun-soaked Mediterranean coastline.

Now all those European destinations are too expensive for most people, if not to holiday there then certainly to buy property. Add to that the fact that there are zero opportunities for self-build projects, and you can see why we hear so much about investment property in Side, because it is hard to imaging prices staying this low for long.

More to Side property than Meets the Eye

You can currently buy Side property starting from 45,000 Euros. Where else on "The Med" is that true, well, apart from all the other Turkish towns on the South and South Western sea-board that is.

But Side has more going for it that just low property prices; as far as coastal towns go, Side is pretty typical, but as we all know, that is not a bad thing; it just means that it is fully geared up and built around being attractive to tourists. As a result Side has plenty of shops and a variety of restaurants, to compliment its year round climate and great beaches, and all just 45 minutes away from the well served Antalya airport.

This package makes Side property very attractive to tourists, holiday home buyers and property investors as well.

Side Property for Sale: Bargain Holiday Homes or Investment

Property for sale in Side is in about the middle of the road; the market is neither geared towards high end or low end. In fact there is an almost equal amount of top end and low end properties. Fly to let investors and holiday home investors will tend to favour apartments in Side as they earn the highest rental yields (per square meter), while capital investors will most often choose large and top end villas in Side.

Of course, there are exceptions to every rule, and, because of the massive growth in tourism to Turkey and the wider Turkish economy, all properties for sale in Side can be called investment properties.
