TH4S,

miss doesn't like tattle tales. Now stop licking up to teacher and get back to work! I'm sure you have plenty of work you could be doing! lol those apartments won't sell themselves!

[TH4S]

Miss Emerald is there is a cryptic message in there,


I agree, not all of Didim is doom and gloom -its just gebs area ..

[Aegean Emerald Properties]

what would be the point of doom and gloom? afterall we are in the property business, it has its highs as well as its lows. ok so we're not selling as much as recent years, but I dount any sensible agent beleived that it would continue for ever? (ok, so maybe those ones who aren't really agents at all and are really guys working in a bar, who has a friend of a friend who has a property to sell! )

anyway, things aren't as good as before, but for those of us with a good reputation, the sales are still there to be made. We'll ride out this 'blip' in the market (I'm being as optimistic as always!) and then we'll be back to business as usual.

But for all of those buyers who do still have money to spend, and aren't afraid to part with it because of the doom and gloom projections for the UK economy, well for those peole this is the time to buy. It is def a buyers market - with a decent agent, and a bit of haggling there are some fantastic bargains to be had. We got a £10,000 discount on a duplex for a customer only last week. Now is the time to buy if you can afford to (or can you afford not to? depends on your viewpoint!). And if you have an agent who is not actively looking to get a bargain for you, then you have the wrong agent!

As for cryptic messages? well TH4S - I think you tell more about your character by even asking that!!! lol

no idea why you can't pm me (ohh err!) but for some reason I cannot access my profile to check settings - perhaps why pm can't get through?

like you we are still regularly selling to Turkish buyers, but they are a lot more savvy when buying than the foreign investor/buyer. They do not judge the price of a property based upon prices at home, therefore they do not pay the kinds of prices that some developers ask. And this is most prob why so many buildings have empty units - greedy developers! but . When I said we are not selling as much as in recent years, I meant to foreign buyers who are prepared to pay higher prices and want to be in more, shall we say, 'tourist' orientated complexes. Luckily the turks are looking for a more practical second or third (or in some cases first) home. thank god for the 'home' market - it is what we make our bread and butter on, and this is what will keep us going now that the overseas buyers are fewer.

thank god that turkey herald has started singing - was getting fed up of telling every second person not to panic! was thinking of getting a tee-shirt printed with 'Don't panic, you will be able to buy again soon' printed on! lol

At the end of the day, if you cannot sell to Turks and get a good reputation doing that, and keep your business going, then you really shouldn't be selling to foreigners - IMO only of course. Feel free to disagree again, you little trouble maker! lol another peep out of you and you'l be sent to stand in the corner facing the wall!

Hear, hear!
It is the time to buy ....
We have all had a very quiet time since New year...but this month has seen a turn around......we have sold out of all our own villas bar one (just one left for sale so priced to clear....roll up roll up, lol).
The clever investors are coming...and a lot of them are 'foreign' Turks and non-British markets.

Turkey's rental market shows promising signs

Turkey's property rental market received a vote of confidence based upon data from leading holiday rental site this week. The internet based lettings site analysed demand for rental property across the 112 countries where they advertise property to let, and Turkey came in 7th amongst those countries. Of all the 'emerging markets' Turkey lead the way, even coming in above some of the long standing tourist destinations, including the Balearics, Canary Islands and South Africa.

The report offers a considerable boost to investors in property in Turkey, vindicating their confidence in the market. 'Given the still relatively low availability of low-cost flights to Turkey, the property rental market is still very much a developing one,This report does however show that rental demand is developing and the market is most definitely heading in the right direction.
