Istanbul continues to maintain its leading position in the real estate market as Turkey's economic and cultural center. As we enter 2025, there are important opportunities and points to consider for real estate investments in the city.
Regional Analysis in Istanbul
Different regions of Istanbul offer different investment potentials. On the European side, developing regions such as Beylikduzu, Esenyurt, and Basaksehir offer attractive opportunities for middle-income investors. On the other hand, Kartal, Pendik, and Tuzla regions on the Anatolian side continue to gain value with new transportation projects and developing infrastructure.
In the luxury housing segment, central locations such as Besiktas, Sariyer, and Kadikoy promise high rental returns with premium prices. Properties with sea views and close to the historical texture continue to attract both domestic and foreign investors.
Price Forecasts
In 2025, real estate prices across Istanbul are expected to increase by an average of 15-20%. However, this increase will show significant differences according to location. While the increase in central regions may reach 25%, it may remain around 10-15% in the city's peripheries.
Sudden value increases may be seen especially in the newly developing regions of the city with the completion of infrastructure investments. Routes passed by metro, Marmaray, and other rail system projects stand out as priority regions for investors.
