In an article published by the Today’s Zaman Newspaper read. One of the arenas to be hardest hit by the 2001 economic crisis in Turkey, the real estate market, is bouncing back with speed, as it experiences a series of economic developments.

 

Last month’s bidding for General Directorate of Highways (KGM) and İstanbul Transportation Authority (İETT) plots are just one example of renewed energy in real estate. The Zorlu Group bought the KGM property for $800 million, while the Dubai-based Sama Dubai company, owned by Dubai Sheik Maktoum, bought the Levent İETT garage property for $705 million. In the wake of these significant purchases, there is curiosity on the market as to whether or not this type of sale will continue.
