Free Turkish Property Legality Check

Hello and welcome to our blog. It's good to see you.

When you’re buying abroad, especially through a company that’s unfamiliar to you or where there are language difficulties involved, legal issues can get complicated. But a recently launched website can now help quell legality issues and ease the worry for people buying property in Turkey.

Is My House Legal allows buyers to check whether a new property development has legal paperwork, planning permission, a building license and is problem-free, before they sign on the dotted line and commit to buy. The checks are carried out by the International Law Partnership, so you can be sure you are obtaining credible information.

The website maintains information on developments that have already been checked as well as some helpful background information about legal issues in the country. You can click on any of the already checked developments and see the information provided by the seller and then the information obtained by the International Law Partnership

The site currently covers Turkey, but there are plans to extend the service to over 30 countries, including Bulgaria, France, Spain, Slovakia and Russia. The information obtained is really useful for buyers, but it shouldn’t be used as an alternative to independent legal advice. If you’re seeking extra peace of mind that the development you’re interested in is above aboard, then this site looks like it will prove to be a useful resource.
