As a new member I would like to express my gratitude for the valued information others members have contributed - it serves to research every available avenue and I feel this forum outshines any other media.

I have read with interest medseA's comments with regards to the Government investment into the Belek/Side area as the new face of Turkey.

My situation is that I am looking at investing in an off-plan 1 bed apartment in the Side-Kumkoy area within a complex of max 30 apartments. The floor area is at least 39sqm at the cost of less than £30k but the spec is of a very high standard (there is a previous development that testifies to this)

I feel the development ticks the boxes as a property but I am somewhat in a dilemma as to the rental market in Side.

Is Side becoming over saturated with developments and consequently overstretching itself in the rental market? or would the injection of Government investment oversee a boom within the area?

This of course is speculation but I am finding it hard to attain concrete and worthwhile evidence of the local investments (road improvements/altanya airport expansion/golf developments) that i hear rumoured.

Could anyone point out some worthwhile sites that detail the above or provide first hand experience of this area.

Many thanks in anticipation
