Why Mersin is one of the best places to buy property in Turkey
Mersin is the largest city on Turkey's Mediterranean coast with a population of over 1.8 million. Unlike Antalya and Alanya, property prices in Mersin are 30–50% lower while offering the same quality of life: 300 sunny days a year, developed infrastructure, international schools and universities, and one of the largest Mediterranean ports.
Mezitli district is the hub for new developments with sea views. Modern residential complexes feature pools, fitness centers, and recreation areas. Prices start from €35,000 for studios and 1+1 apartments. Tece attracts investors with proximity to the sea (100–500 m), new projects from leading developers, and high rental potential.
Types of property in Mersin
The Mersin market offers everything from compact studios (1+0) to spacious penthouses and villas. Most popular layouts are 1+1 (one bedroom + living room) and 2+1 (two bedrooms + living room). New builds typically come with full finishing: laminate flooring, porcelain tiles, fitted kitchen, and plumbing — all included in the price.
- 1+1 apartments — from €35,000 (45–65 m², great for rental income)
- 2+1 apartments — from €55,000 (85–120 m², family option)
- 3+1 apartments — from €75,000 (120–160 m²)
- Penthouses & duplexes — from €100,000 (150–250 m²)
- Villas — from €120,000 (private plot, pool)
0% installment from developers
A key advantage of buying property in Mersin is the 0% installment plan directly from developers. Typical terms: 30–50% down payment, the rest over 12–36 months with no interest. Some projects offer up to 60-month plans. Ihlas International helps you find projects with the best installment terms.
Residence permit through property purchase
Purchasing property in Turkey worth $200,000 or more grants the right to a residence permit. The permit extends to the buyer's family. We handle the entire process: from property selection to obtaining TAPU (title deed) and residence permit processing.
