My rent, on the Asian side of Istanbul, went up 100% this past year, and I expect it to go up another 100% next year. From what I see, it's not only Russians, but many Ukrainians as well. It's very hard on the Turkish people--so sad.
Yeah of course. Blame the Russians and Ukrainians for all of it. It's definitely not the 88,5% inflation rate Erdogan has created by not believing in basic economic theory for religious reasons. Only Zimbabwe, Lebanon, Venezuela, Syria and Sudan are worse. Those are not countries Turkey should be compared too, but now it is.
Same thing with Americans and British "Digital nomads" in Thailand and Indonesia, they have driven the price of things up many times until it made some things unaffordable for locals like me.
I believe some families are selling their houses in the city, moving to the outside of town, buying another house, and settling in the quiet land with more acres to enjoy or keep some livestock.
I used to live in Turkey and remember a friend of mine bought a 2 bedroomed apartment in Fethiye with a shared pool for 83'000 lira (about 9 years ago) . Bugün ne kadar olacağını düşünmek bile istemiyorum!
If you have a certain amount of Russian in your country you are running risk of blackmailing and annexation by Russians. Russians deeply militarized society for sure will recover one day. Wait for it.

When DW talks about a 500% increase in rent prices, they should mention whether the figures are adjusted for inflation or not. Turkey has undergone so much inflation, the prices need to be contextualized to make any sense at all.
@@СпаркиСпаркиБуМен Yes but it is still much less than the increase in rent all over the country. And that is certainly not just because of the foreigners.
In Quebec, canada, we have laws and official government entity that ensure a limit to rent raise yearly. So the turkish government is not protecting its own citizen. It’s seems totally chaotic, maybe some officials receive money not to intervene…

Nonsense... it only works for current rentals with contracts. A new rental can be anything you want. Its the same here in NY and the apartments that were $800/m 10 years ago are now $3,000/m
I'm an American living in alanya and I pay more for groceries than I did in California. I'm being honest. I don't know how turks are surviving.

I'm a foreigner but married to a Turk for over 5 years. We moved to Alanya in September 2022 and the rent for a 2+1 in an old apartment building was 6,000 TL/month. It was was the cheapest thing we could find. We earn in TL so the prices in Alanya were really shocking and unaffordable. After two months there we decided to move to another city in Turkey and it is more livable where we moved. We learned that our landlord rented that apartment to a Ukrainian family for 12,000 TL after we left.
@@muratkursatkaya3699 Actually, yes I am thankful to God that I got so lucky. We moved to Tekirdag where my husband's family has a family apartment building otherwise we would be struggling too. When I went to get my SIM card we spoke with the worker there, a local yörük girl in Alanya, she told us her landlord was trying to kick her out so that he could get a new, higher paying renter. I believe she was paying 800 TL/month for a 3+1 in the city centre because she was a long-time old renter but a new renter would pay probably 14,000 TL for that apartment. And its so sad you hear these sort of stories from all over Turkey, particularly large or popular cities, about greedy landlords trying to illegally kick out old renters.
russians gave up on their country and i could relate to that. Antalya is a great city to live and travel russians+ukrainians know what theyre doing. if they could just go to eu or a western country a lot of them book their flights but Turkiye's low living costs(for foreigners compared to western countries) is very attractive. Turkiye is safe, divirse, cheap, populous.... i get why they're here, i blame the government.

I pray that Erdogan gives up power in the elections. A democratic Turkey would be a wonderful state, but if Erdogan usurps power, then Turkey is likely to start several wars, corruption and inflation will not allow the economy to develop. In general, the elections in May is a historic moment.
At least in Turkey there are people living but in Canada, you will find foreigners ( in high proportion chinese) buying the real estate and not living but selling them after 1-2 yrs after the rise in real estate to scoop profits. People living locally are forced to either go onto the suburbs to find cheaper housing or worse end up living in camper/trailer. But the government seems to rectify the issue as of date.
Nah, it is the same in Turkey. Especially middle eastern owners buy tens of estates and sell after a while. Turkish citizens are waiting for their deaths in unsafe/weak houses for not being able to move to earthquake resistant ones.
Another example of Turkey playing both sides of the fence - to the detriment of ordinary Turks. This is the Turkish 'leaderships' idea of combating inflation - just bring in more inflationary pressures. I see this situation creating social strife and hopefully a change in government. It's up to the Turkish people to decide how much more pain they can take. Serious questions need to be considered on Turkey remaining within NATO. The welcoming stance towards Russians - especially Russians with loads of money needs to be looked at closely. Is this the wests idea of keeping backend channels 'open'? Nothing will surprise me.
My dutch friend...you know that no force can kick Turkey out of NATO nor does anyone want them out...when will you finally stop those comments? :) turkish people must get rid of Erdoğan. He caused these problems..but sadly some are ride and die voters..like Trumps voters..you cant convince them either
I doubt u know much about the economy. The bad economy in Turkey is a serious issue that must be resolved. Some Erdoğan policies can be partially blamed for the economic situation and situations like pandemics and war have made it even worse. However, in this instance, DW is just targeting the Turk audience as a campaign to push out Erdogan, and you are now into it😅. The high price of housing in such locations exists in every single country across the world. Given Russia's population of 143 million, 2 to 3 million Russians visiting Turkey and some buying property is not strange. Iranian, Iraqi, Russian, and Germans were for a while the top buyers in Turkey. Real estate sales to Americans increased by 115.2% in 2021. Tourism revenues are vital to Turkey's economy and a source of many jobs and income.
My rent in European side of Istanbul went up 25% last year and 115% this year. It’s crazy. I can afford it but most can’t so, something has to change. Crime goes up when necessities become an unaffordable luxury.
This is what happens when the government doesn’t do its JOB and protects its citizens. That includes ensuring there is housing available and rents and prices don’t get unsustainable. But just like all over the west the government don’t do their job and in fact love it as it allows them and their donors/ friends who are more often landlords massive profits.
turkey is pretty corrupt, not as bad as russia but bad. there's an obvious reason why new laws are not being created for turkish citizens. rich developers have city councils in their back pocket.
I am a Turkish citizen who lived in Russia for a while and speak Russian language fluently.I can say that Russians are literally conquering Turkish seaside cities,especially Antalya,Alanya,Silifke. There are about 1 million Russian speaker people living in Turkey now. I found this very disturbing because they try to change the environment of these cities for theirselves. They never try to learn Turkish,they always are so rude to local people,they look down the people because they are blonde and blue eyed. I am sure that Russian government will intervene internal affairs in Turkey by referring this huge number of Russians in Turkey.
This is funny to read, considering that only 20% of Russians have blue eyes, and the most common eye colors are gray and brown. The most common hair colors are light brown and dark brown, but certainly not blond. Maybe you are confusing them with Germans, considering that there are as many Germans as Russians in Antalya?
@@raevskii I lived in Russia and I speak Russian fluently and I think that I can distinguish Russians from Germans. No,they are Russians and other Russian speaking people like Ukrainians,Belarusians and Moldovans. Yes you are right,all Russians are not blonde,but they are very different from Turkish and other Mediterranean people by outlook as we both know. Russians see Turks as inferior browns by thinking that they are civilized white Europeans. Both of us know that how you perceive Caucasians and Central Asians in your country. I had an Uzbek friend who was murdered by three Russian men just because he was a «Чурка». I can somewhat understand that in Russia,but you cannot treat us like that in our own country. You can return to your country if you like. Turkish people love you so much because they have no idea about you,but I lived together with you for years. I know what is on your mind better than you,my super race Slavic brother.
Zero references in the whole video to the inmese Turkish lira depreciation, which is the reason why anyone with foreign currency can overpower their real estate market.
According to you, i could easily go there too and rent an appartement and stay for a long time. I could have done it even in previous years when Inflation was not as high. That is because i have the means to do it. But i don't. Why? Because i have no reason to. What is the point of my comment? The same point that video has.
Strangely what was NOT mentioned was the high infaltion that the Turks have been suffering from in the past few years. So this is a heavy body blow that they have to unfortunately bear as well. By New York City standards and of course coming with a hard currency like the USD or Euro the property market is quite affordable.
The influx of foreign capital is a major plus for Turkey considering the lira devaluation. I feel for the locals in Antalya tho, London experience higher rents due to foreign residents it been painful.
I'm curious about the coming statements from the Kremlin: "Turkey has always been russian territory, the cities of Russtanbul Russkara Ruszmir and Russtalya belong to the Russian Federation so we must denazify Turkey!"
Heh, as if! Turkey is a part of NATO, and when they shot down a russian fighter jet, Putin was like 'ooookay, I'm sure it was a honest mistake!' And Russia depends from Turkey trade routes more than ever.
It happens everywhere. People from US Nothern States relocate to Southern states and the housing market goes crazy. Locals cannot afford the prices that the incomers find very alluring.

Not only Russians but also Ukrainians are too many. There is a perception that only Russians exist in Turkey because Turkish people says only "Russian" to those coming from countries such as Belarus and Ukraine. I guess that the Russians in Antalya are half as many Ukrainians, but it is interesting that they live in the same neighborhoods, send their children to the same schools, swim on the same beaches and make friends as if there has never been a war in their country. Failed government policies are responsible for rising house prices. Especially if someone working in the IT field if you can live in Antalya 3-4 times cheaper than St. Petersburg and offer the opportunity to swim in the sea some most beatuiful beachs even in winter, people will prefer it. At least, it should ensure that Russians living in Turkey and working abroad pay their income taxes to the Republic of Turkey not to a foreign country.

Similar situation is in Israel. Greedy people buy off all apartments, leading to growing amount of homeless people who cannot afford to have an apartment and compelled to rent. Which is another kind of slavery.
This could be solved by basic immigration laws. Turkey could have capped the number of Russian immigrants allowed per year, and told them they would be divided up into different regions of the country---------they couldn't all swarm one fancy spot.........but I think the net money/talent influx is good for Turkey, so they're letting the Russians do what they want.
The main reason for allowing Russians is the money the russians bring. Turkey and UAE have become hot beds of wealthy Russians to invest and to lock away their money where it is safe and government encourages it
Do we see it? This is what happens when either money gets concentrated in one area, and what happens when you flood an economy with too much wealth. The citizens get crushed under the weight of greed.
This is so sad. Istanbul is also having the same issue. There’s many non-Russian foreigners settling there and the government isn’t really offering options for the locals to survive the price increases. The the local Turks in general are being forgotten about while the government is excited about foreigners and their purchasing power.
I sold my apartment in Russia in July 2022 and bought in Istanbul in November 2022. I didn’t study rent market in Turkey, but I studied the market of selling apartments. Only 5% of buyers in 2022 in Turkey were foreigners. Maybe the percentage is big in Antalya, Alanya (I think, more than 20%), but mostly in Turkey foreigners make very very low impact on buying apartments market. Even in Istanbul percentage of foreign buyers is quite low. And I feel very sad, when Turkish politicians (Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu) say that Turkish people can’t buy a house because of foreigners. It is just a lie… I hope that Turkish economics will be able to get stable. Geçmiş olsun, Türkiye 🙏 Açıklığınız ve hoşgörünüz için çok teşekkür ederim.
Weren't Russians poor or was this the story which was told to us. Here in Spain also Russians were investing into Real Estate but now they are not. But housing problem is there in major city. As most landlords want to get more rent from their apartments which tourists are willing to pay. So the locals have to go to the outskirts. That's how it is. Earlier people lived with their back to the sea as there were factories on the coastline. Now all those have been dismantled and new apartments have come up. Who was buying them? The "poor" Russians. But not anymore. I guess now they will not invest in Europe as they have been robbed. Even businessmen who were investing in businesses are selling or have sold their businesses and are going. This will crumble the economy or at least the construction sector as after the subprime crisis banks have a surplus and and not easy on loans.
You know Russia have a big population right? There are people in different economic classes, just like everywhere. Its those Russian's who are middle to upper class which are buying/renting the property.

We dont want russians, ukrainians or iranians to rent or buy a house in turkey. Inflatian in turkey is 70 percent. Also increase in rents in big cities, increases rents in small cities. Landlords says that " do you know how much house rents have increased in big cities (İstanbul, Antalya, izmir)"
@Li F well thats their own fault then, UK is allowing money launderers to stash and buy properties all over London from day 1. They know how to benefit from it. Turkey should take advantage of it as well
Only landlords benefit from an incoming mass of "rich" immigrants. Everyone else will get crushed. And there is only so much the city can do. I think the only two options would be like an immigration tax if you have a certain amount of wealth or a clear limit to rent increases, regardless of how high the demand is. But usually the average citizen gets crushed by this. You can see this everywhere where suddenly a lot of rich people move in. Ask the people in Lissaon for example. The locals can barely afford rent anymore because of all the digital nomads who have been moving in and paying a lot more for rent.
This has been happening for decades in the US only here it's primarily hedge funds and financial institutions that are buying up houses and in some cases, city blocks of houses which sky rocket property value and rent. Gentrification is rampant here in Los Angeles.
This is why homelessness is also rampant. As rents rise, more and more people find themselves on the street sleeping in a tent, in a car or, the luckier ones, in a camper, with the risk of throwing their lives away with drugs, alcohol and mental illness. But there are always billions of dollars to spend on Ukraine.
@@trumpforever6706 Yep. It never had to be this way but when profits are to be made, they're front and center. Already after all these billions have been wasted on Ukraine with the ending everyone knows is a Russian victory, we will see American financial institutions and hedge funds swooping in like cultures to tear apart the remnants of Ukraine's economic life. A lot of money is going to be made by transnational corporations in "rebuilding Ukraine." I've read about the labor laws and economic "reforms" of Zelensky and all I can say, is that I feel sorry for Ukrainians after the war ends. I feel for the Ukrainian civilians now but after the war, it's going to be a nightmare.
Same things happened in London before the war , the Russian. Millionaires and billionaires oligarchs , the like of Roman Abramovich, kept coming to the U.K. , purchasing properties in London and surrounding areas , as U.K. government welcomed them by putting legislation to facilitate residency documents rich business people , hoping to improve the economy . Consequently, London became one of the most expense place to buy or rent a property in the world , with the price of an average house in London costing several millions pounds , way beyond 95 % of British people .
You can’t blame russians from wanting to leave. Russians in London have contributed to the very high prices there. Chinese in Vancouver another example. Given turkey’s poor economic conditions it is vulnerable to foreign investment.
Are you sure it has nothing to do with millions of Arabs that entered UK thanx to NATO? According to statistics there are 70k Russians in London and 400k Arabs.
@@GwynBleys "millions of Arabs that entered UK thanx to NATO" What on earth does NATO have to do with UK immigration? There are no Arab nations in NATO - unless you consider Turkey one.
The rental price is currently ridiculous, my rental apartment went from 5000 a month to 15000 a month in 1 year. I refused to pay 15k a month and found a cheaper apartment but how can the locals rent now? There’s no affordable housing for locals it’s really sad that Türkiye has allowed this to happen. Why does greed always have to win? And why didn’t the yabancis consider the needs of the locals?! I’m British my husband is a local turk his salary is 8000 a month he would never be able to rent or consider buying. I really feel it for the locals I hope the government does something about this and makes housing affordable again
Do you blame the near win of Le Pen on a regression of French culture? Is Trump a symptom of American culture? How about Boris, was that due to British culture? Are Italians just culturally fascist? You got some not so closet racism showing. People are not their government, most especially in authoritarian nations.
Only Russians? :)) There is a great migration of people from Africa, the Middle East, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Turkic Republics to Turkey. The increase in Turkey's popularity in recent years has provided this. 15 years ago, you could hardly see foreigners outside of holiday destinations while walking on the street. I hope it won't be a problem for the future of my country, but I don't think it's good. I think we are one of the countries where citizenship is easily obtained in the world. I also think the same about the residence permit. This is regrettable.
Turkey may only give citizenship upon some hundred thousand dollars, which is in fact benefiting its own government. Otherwise, upon working it is very hard to get it which is again to the benefit of government, taking tax from foreigner for years then making obstacles for citizenship! Turkish government treats some foreigners in a very unethical nasty way.
@@Zero-ls9mb I was going to write Indian geography, maybe I wrote country by country in case you get comments like you. You are right, Indians are quite few compared to others.
Russians are not to blame but Turkish politicians. Yet the problem does not only occur in Antalya but in Istanbul too and not only Russians but also Arabs, İranians etc that everbody buys or rent houses due to currency that Turkish lira has lost a lot of value, and thus Turkish people can not find an affordable accomodation. İn Istanbul an average 3room apartment was 3000 TL, and now it is 15000 TL. This trend of foreigners buying properties in Turkey is like "batan geminin mallari' unfortunately.
From the start of this year it's almost impossible to get residence for a year in Antalya, at least for Russians. This problem becomes less and less urgent. Today 90 days max in Turkey for Russians, as in many other countries.
Then go to other cities. Antalya is already full of its capacity. You don't have to live in Antalya. Try Aydın, Muğla, Çanakkale, Ankara, İzmir, Bursa, etc.

There is this thing called open economies which Gov don't always stop. This also happens in places like Canada where people come from abroad to buy homes. Then locals are out of housing - can't afford rent. Where I live its not even foreigners but Canadians with Cash.

Sounds like a housing issue everywhere cause where I live here in America we have foreigner buying property and making our values skyrocket as well so it's an issue for everyone and we need to tackle it together
It's an interesting thing in ethical sense as yeah we have ease of travel and all the global markets plus multi-culti thingies but frankly I'm amazed people don't see downfall of it. Migrating all into other end of the globe just cause someone is poorer there has double sides. When it comes to houses, or buildings it kind of makes one wonder if there shouldn't be some regulations for it as some places are just cheap for one and to be fair it doesn't mean one can buy it all as it's for the economy of people living there.

Turkey is making a big mistake. Soon Russian population grows in Turkey, and they demand speaking in Russian, laws in Russian and try to spread Russian culture there too. Look at central Asia if you don't believe me. Better to watch out!
It's locals who raise prices in every country. Don't blame tourists for that. Don't be greedy and charge insane price for rent. Rent as usual but team up with local restaurants and have percentage from every meal your guests have there. Or upsell the some excursions, car rentals, spa procedures etc. Tourism is a great source of income if you built infrastructure around it.
As a Turk, rent is becoming unaffordable in many places in Turkey and that's not just due to the influx of foreigners. Remember, we have a VERY high inflation rate. It's true that this is a bigger issue in Antalya and there are indeed a lot of foreigners there (which does worsen the problem) but you also need to provide the context that the economy of Turkey sucks either way. This honestly just feels biased to fit a narrative.
Turks are mad that foreigners who want to live in Turkey.... Well we all know how many Turks live in Europe. We could say they taking jobs and flats as well. The problem is there is not enough protecting laws for tenants. I understand people who want to escape Putin madland

Considering Turkey is the only NATO country to actually shoot down Russian military assets in recent history (Technically the US slaughtered a Wagner battalion in Syria, but they aren't "official"), I'm not so worried about Turkey defending itself from Russia.
Do not forget that about 10-15% of the population of Russia are Turkic ethnic groups (Tatars, Balkars, Azerbaijanis, Bashkirs, Dagestanis, etc.), which is about 20 million people (a quarter of the population of Turkey)
They don't have to deport or blame them, they are rising they economy but the government have to put some limits for what are they buying and help the locals in need with rent/house benefits !

I'm a foreigner but married to a Turk for over 5 years. We moved to Alanya in September 2022 and the rent for a 2+1 in an old apartment building was 6,000 TL/month. It was was the cheapest thing we could find. We earn in TL so the prices in Alanya were really shocking and unaffordable. After two months there we decided to move to another city in Turkey and it is more livable where we moved. We learned that our landlord rented that apartment to a Ukrainian family for 12,000 TL after we left.
Ur lucky pray the god😂
@@muratkursatkaya3699 Actually, yes I am thankful to God that I got so lucky. We moved to Tekirdag where my husband's family has a family apartment building otherwise we would be struggling too. When I went to get my SIM card we spoke with the worker there, a local yörük girl in Alanya, she told us her landlord was trying to kick her out so that he could get a new, higher paying renter. I believe she was paying 800 TL/month for a 3+1 in the city centre because she was a long-time old renter but a new renter would pay probably 14,000 TL for that apartment. And its so sad you hear these sort of stories from all over Turkey, particularly large or popular cities, about greedy landlords trying to illegally kick out old renters.

Nah, it is the same in Turkey. Especially middle eastern owners buy tens of estates and sell after a while. Turkish citizens are waiting for their deaths in unsafe/weak houses for not being able to move to earthquake resistant ones.
In turkey people can’t afford houses because of inflation :)
Another example of Turkey playing both sides of the fence - to the detriment of ordinary Turks. This is the Turkish 'leaderships' idea of combating inflation - just bring in more inflationary pressures. I see this situation creating social strife and hopefully a change in government. It's up to the Turkish people to decide how much more pain they can take. Serious questions need to be considered on Turkey remaining within NATO. The welcoming stance towards Russians - especially Russians with loads of money needs to be looked at closely. Is this the wests idea of keeping backend channels 'open'? Nothing will surprise me.

I doubt u know much about the economy. The bad economy in Turkey is a serious issue that must be resolved. Some Erdoğan policies can be partially blamed for the economic situation and situations like pandemics and war have made it even worse. However, in this instance, DW is just targeting the Turk audience as a campaign to push out Erdogan, and you are now into it😅. The high price of housing in such locations exists in every single country across the world. Given Russia's population of 143 million, 2 to 3 million Russians visiting Turkey and some buying property is not strange. Iranian, Iraqi, Russian, and Germans were for a while the top buyers in Turkey. Real estate sales to Americans increased by 115.2% in 2021. Tourism revenues are vital to Turkey's economy and a source of many jobs and income.

I am a Turkish citizen who lived in Russia for a while and speak Russian language fluently.I can say that Russians are literally conquering Turkish seaside cities,especially Antalya,Alanya,Silifke. There are about 1 million Russian speaker people living in Turkey now. I found this very disturbing because they try to change the environment of these cities for theirselves. They never try to learn Turkish,they always are so rude to local people,they look down the people because they are blonde and blue eyed. I am sure that Russian government will intervene internal affairs in Turkey by referring this huge number of Russians in Turkey.
I have a plan that will sound interesting.
This is funny to read, considering that only 20% of Russians have blue eyes, and the most common eye colors are gray and brown. The most common hair colors are light brown and dark brown, but certainly not blond. Maybe you are confusing them with Germans, considering that there are as many Germans as Russians in Antalya?
@@raevskii I lived in Russia and I speak Russian fluently and I think that I can distinguish Russians from Germans. No,they are Russians and other Russian speaking people like Ukrainians,Belarusians and Moldovans. Yes you are right,all Russians are not blonde,but they are very different from Turkish and other Mediterranean people by outlook as we both know. Russians see Turks as inferior browns by thinking that they are civilized white Europeans. Both of us know that how you perceive Caucasians and Central Asians in your country. I had an Uzbek friend who was murdered by three Russian men just because he was a «Чурка». I can somewhat understand that in Russia,but you cannot treat us like that in our own country.

Strangely what was NOT mentioned was the high infaltion that the Turks have been suffering from in the past few years. So this is a heavy body blow that they have to unfortunately bear as well.

Not only Russians but also Ukrainians are too many. There is a perception that only Russians exist in Turkey because Turkish people says only "Russian" to those coming from countries such as Belarus and Ukraine. I guess that the Russians in Antalya are half as many Ukrainians, but it is interesting that they live in the same neighborhoods, send their children to the same schools, swim on the same beaches and make friends as if there has never been a war in their country. Failed government policies are responsible for rising house prices. Especially if someone working in the IT field if you can live in Antalya 3-4 times cheaper than St. Petersburg and offer the opportunity to swim in the sea some most beatuiful beachs even in winter, people will prefer it. At least, it should ensure that Russians living in Turkey and working abroad pay their income taxes to the Republic of Turkey not to a foreign country.

Similar situation is in Israel. Greedy people buy off all apartments, leading to growing amount of homeless people who cannot afford to have an apartment and compelled to rent. Which is another kind of slavery.

This could be solved by basic immigration laws. Turkey could have capped the number of Russian immigrants allowed per year, and told them they would be divided up into different regions of the country---------they couldn't all swarm one fancy spot.........but I think the net money/talent influx is good for Turkey, so they're letting the Russians do what they want.
@LibertyUnion69 69 awesome, you're having arguments with yourself. Let me know how it goes.
The main reason for allowing Russians is the money the russians bring. Turkey and UAE have become hot beds of wealthy Russians to invest and to lock away their money where it is safe and government encourages it
turkey should shorten their visa duration... it is an easy fix to a serious problem that is hurting turks.
restrict russian visas
@Benksy It would be much better if the property owners are taxed and the tax revenue from rents used to subsidise local people's housing.
Do we see it? This is what happens when either money gets concentrated in one area, and what happens when you flood an economy with too much wealth.
The citizens get crushed under the weight of greed.
This is so sad. Istanbul is also having the same issue. There’s many non-Russian foreigners settling there and the government isn’t really offering options for the locals to survive the price increases. The the local Turks in general are being forgotten about while the government is excited about foreigners and their purchasing power.
It is a recipe for political disaster, I guess.
I sold my apartment in Russia in July 2022 and bought in Istanbul in November 2022.
I didn’t study rent market in Turkey, but I studied the market of selling apartments. Only 5% of buyers in 2022 in Turkey were foreigners. Maybe the percentage is big in Antalya, Alanya (I think, more than 20%), but mostly in Turkey foreigners make very very low impact on buying apartments market. Even in Istanbul percentage of foreign buyers is quite low.
And I feel very sad, when Turkish politicians (Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu) say that Turkish people can’t buy a house because of foreigners. It is just a lie… I hope that Turkish economics will be able to get stable.
Geçmiş olsun, Türkiye 🙏 Açıklığınız ve hoşgörünüz için çok teşekkür ederim.
Turkish economy will be better when opposition party come into power.
Weren't Russians poor or was this the story which was told to us. Here in Spain also Russians were investing into Real Estate but now they are not. But housing problem is there in major city. As most landlords want to get more rent from their apartments which tourists are willing to pay. So the locals have to go to the outskirts. That's how it is. Earlier people lived with their back to the sea as there were factories on the coastline. Now all those have been dismantled and new apartments have come up. Who was buying them? The "poor" Russians. But not anymore. I guess now they will not invest in Europe as they have been robbed. Even businessmen who were investing in businesses are selling or have sold their businesses and are going. This will crumble the economy or at least the construction sector as after the subprime crisis banks have a surplus and and not easy on loans.
You know Russia have a big population right? There are people in different economic classes, just like everywhere. Its those Russian's who are middle to upper class which are buying/renting the property.

We dont want russians, ukrainians or iranians to rent or buy a house in turkey. Inflatian in turkey is 70 percent.
Also increase in rents in big cities, increases rents in small cities. Landlords says that " do you know how much house rents have increased in big cities (İstanbul, Antalya, izmir)"
Well they are also bringing a lot of money with them so its up to the city's administration on how to benefit locals with that money.
Yep, that's why Turkey allows it.
@Li F well thats their own fault then, UK is allowing money launderers to stash and buy properties all over London from day 1. They know how to benefit from it. Turkey should take advantage of it as well
Only landlords benefit from an incoming mass of "rich" immigrants. Everyone else will get crushed. And there is only so much the city can do. I think the only two options would be like an immigration tax if you have a certain amount of wealth or a clear limit to rent increases, regardless of how high the demand is.
But usually the average citizen gets crushed by this. You can see this everywhere where suddenly a lot of rich people move in. Ask the people in Lissaon for example. The locals can barely afford rent anymore because of all the digital nomads who have been moving in and paying a lot more for rent.
This has been happening for decades in the US only here it's primarily hedge funds and financial institutions that are buying up houses and in some cases, city blocks of houses which sky rocket property value and rent. Gentrification is rampant here in Los Angeles.
This is why homelessness is also rampant. As rents rise, more and more people find themselves on the street sleeping in a tent, in a car or, the luckier ones, in a camper, with the risk of throwing their lives away with drugs, alcohol and mental illness. But there are always billions of dollars to spend on Ukraine.
@@trumpforever6706 Yep. It never had to be this way but when profits are to be made, they're front and center.

Set the maximum rental prices, so that for the landlord it did not matter to whom to rent.
Why such fuss? Just tell Erdogan to ban foreigners from buying property in turkey. Or even rent apartments. Then see what happens.

We all know who's responsible for the brilliant economic policy. Its starts with an E...
maybe the 2nd letter is an R.
The russians caused the rent and apartment prices to soar in Tashkent Uzbekistan as well.
It is your greedy landlords who caused such prices.
@@Роман-д1й1ш, this is capitalism, maybe.The more demand is the higher prices will go up. Anyway, if russians did not come there would not be price hikes.
@@Asilbek9339 Russians and Arabs = problem everywhere
It's the duty of every government to ensure affordable living for all their citizens, failure to do so is a failure in government, a government that doesn't reperesent it's people.
Russian citizens are polite,kind & cheerful
And their fleeing the country is furthering the destruction and genocide in Ukraine. They are cowards.
@LETHAL BURMESE DUDE Then you ve never seen British drinking, go and see and compare))))
@@tataandre8907 I've just wanted to write the same. In comparison to Brits and Germans, Russians are angels
Please also make a video about how syrian immigrant affected low income people in Turkiye
They have done the same thing to Florida in the United States. Russia owns a third of the resorts housing and Florida attractions. people can no longer afford to live here because of it.
Same in UK, Georgia
lol now apperently we are so rich that even Americans are complaining, that's complete BS, few hundred oligarchs are drop in the ocean, your economy sucks not because of russians, but because your government prints unsubstantiated money which fewer and fewer nations take seriously every passing year.
No, it's not the same. Russians in Florida are celebrities and millionaires, Russians in Turkey are middle class citizens escaping mobilisation.
There is this thing called open economies which Gov don't always stop. This also happens in places like Canada where people come from abroad to buy homes. Then locals are out of housing - can't afford rent. Where I live its not even foreigners but Canadians with Cash.
So if the prices go up because of demand then it puts the renter /lower end at risk too.If you like the local kebab shop it may not be there tomorrow because the staff can't afford to live there.
Why blame only Russians. So many Ukrainians also took asylum in Turkyeë
From what I saw in Alanya last year it was like 80% Ukrainians.
I don't understand how is that exactly Russian or Ukranian or any other foreign problem?
Exactly like the IT guy said they follow the country rules. Problem is greedy local law makers and home owners who don't think about their own ppl.
it exceeds local law makers its a goverment policy issue due to lack of integrity morality honesty literacy and academic disciplines and forget about morals norms customs values national heritage which all screwed up lol these are not foreigners problem lol just beat the system lmao your right its just problem of inhumanity of our own faith as our goverment officials capable to comprehend due to illiteracy n immorality
Sounds like a housing issue everywhere cause where I live here in America we have foreigner buying property and making our values skyrocket as well so it's an issue for everyone and we need to tackle it together
It's an interesting thing in ethical sense as yeah we have ease of travel and all the global markets plus multi-culti thingies but frankly I'm amazed people don't see downfall of it. Migrating all into other end of the globe just cause someone is poorer there has double sides. When it comes to houses, or buildings it kind of makes one wonder if there shouldn't be some regulations for it as some places are just cheap for one and to be fair it doesn't mean one can buy it all as it's for the economy of people living there. That plus taxes regulating imported and exported goods Vs local business is also a double edged sword - you can do that but in the end it's lazy/convenience Vs bad work-life-balance/abuse.
Thank you DW for positing this material.
On the other hand manipulating market puts capitalism at risk of manipulation and corruption. That's why the topic makes me scratch my head
That father looks absolutely miserable. If turkey had any other leader I'd think it would work out eventually.
The high price of housing in truistic locations exists in every single country across the world. DW is just targeting the Turk audience as a campaign to push out Erdogan and it looks like you are into it too 😅
Wait until May 14 to see our new leader.
@@buzfatih good luck!

but the rent is not really affortable to ppl in Turkey is a problem
You can blame capitalism. I am as Social Worker in New York City. I make 50% less than my friends working in the private sector, and even with rent stabilization, I'm at the point where I will probably have to give up my 1 bedroom apartment and rent a room somewhere. The situation is so bad here that you have low- income workers living in homeless shelters.
Not Turkey, Türkiye!
Erdogan 's gift for Turkish People!
Devaluation of Lira, High inflation, Homelessness !
Thanks to Erdogan!
Actually Erdoğan has been an incredible leader. You don't find many politicians who love their country and people.
This is a global issue, systematic issue. Capitalism has failed and it's now destroying everything in it. Turkiye can get away from this madness. I hope they do.
All you have to do is look at the UK and the US to realise what an amazing job Erdoğan has done to keep the ship sailing. The planet is in a mess, yet people are running to Turkiye for refuge. Not just russians, Ukrainians, Brits, Germans and Iranians, but from all over the planet. That says everything about the state of the country, even in these times, it's a wonderful place to live. Turkiye must find the balance, and prioritise Turks first.
and he gave us great Democracy
I hope he will go finaly
Allah mohmad and islam too
No talk about the 200% inflation rate they've had in just a few years...
DW why you didn’t mention about the level of inflation in Turkey in general?

Turkey has become a country easy to live in for foreigners impossible for locals
Turkey is making a big mistake. Soon Russian population grows in Turkey, and they demand speaking in Russian, laws in Russian and try to spread Russian culture there too. Look at central Asia if you don't believe me. Better to watch out!
DW always try any opportunity to troll and demonize Russians...
That stuff of rising rent is going on even in the US and other parts of the world
Yeah but nowhere near as badly. Did you hear he said that rents were going up by as much as 8-9 times? Imagine adding a 0 to your rent. That's mental
landlords are not good people (some of them)
@@jamesatherton1853 Good thing there is no such thing, I hope not
Since Russians occupy Turkey, we Europeans choose other countries as our holiday destination 🤷🏻♂️
It's locals who raise prices in every country. Don't blame tourists for that. Don't be greedy and charge insane price for rent.
Rent as usual but team up with local restaurants and have percentage from every meal your guests have there. Or upsell the some excursions, car rentals, spa procedures etc. Tourism is a great source of income if you built infrastructure around it.
As a Turk, rent is becoming unaffordable in many places in Turkey and that's not just due to the influx of foreigners. Remember, we have a VERY high inflation rate. It's true that this is a bigger issue in Antalya and there are indeed a lot of foreigners there (which does worsen the problem) but you also need to provide the context that the economy of Turkey sucks either way. This honestly just feels biased to fit a narrative.
Well Berlin is not that different 😢

Turks are mad that foreigners who want to live in Turkey.... Well we all know how many Turks live in Europe. We could say they taking jobs and flats as well.
The problem is there is not enough protecting laws for tenants.
I understand people who want to escape Putin madland
Most of them kurdish from east turkey you don't know anythıng, turks are mostly engineers or doctor there not same things
Try to ask the russian residents in turkey how they think about the ,, special military operation"?" Quiet shure most of them supported Putins Actions .... as long as not get drafted .

because of Turkey, at least, we are avoiding more nuke crisis
not only Russians but also Arabs and Iranıans ıncreased the prices. But Arabs dont buy property from Antalya and Aegean costs they prefer Istanbul.
Be careful the Russian government might decide to protect and “liberate” their citizens..😂
Before us, I am more worried about this for Georgia 🇬🇪
Considering Turkey is the only NATO country to actually shoot down Russian military assets in recent history (Technically the US slaughtered a Wagner battalion in Syria, but they aren't "official"), I'm not so worried about Turkey defending itself from Russia.
Turkey has more military capabilities than ruzzia now. And they have the NATO umbrella.
@@Duke19073 Slight difference, Turkey is a very strong military but Russia could single hand idly bring on an apocalyptic end time.
Nice sarcasm 🌶🌶
Literally the same thing is happening inn Belgrade, Serbia because of the same reason.
I thought Serbs and Russians are brothers?🤔
@@user-zx1sx9bj5ttbh all eastern europe
Greedy capitalism. It's everywhere.
Do not forget that about 10-15% of the population of Russia are Turkic ethnic groups (Tatars, Balkars, Azerbaijanis, Bashkirs, Dagestanis, etc.), which is about 20 million people (a quarter of the population of Turkey)
They speak Russian. They have their church. So, these guys are Russian my friend.
Turkey could pass a law requiring citizenship for real estate purchases and drop the ban on foreign rentals from 20% down to 10%.
Everyone is talking about Russians and Ukrainians, no one is talking about Syrians and Afghans.
simple solution - split taxation, more taxes for those who rent to Russians and less for those who rent to locals
This actually can be one of the solutions.
An old TATAR proverb says that do not allow in your home the one who will throw you out of it
They don't have to deport or blame them, they are rising they economy but the government have to put some limits for what are they buying and help the locals in need with rent/house benefits !
Turkish guy in here ! we are happy with russians and ukrainians. I hope more of them will visit and relocate Turkey.
They will if you apologize for killing Armenians and turning back hague Sophia back to a church

I really don't see any problem with foreigners investing in turkish real estate. as a Iranian who owns a home here I am one of many foreigners who are paying taxes and bringing foreign currency into a troubling turkish economy. Many turkish people didn't own a home and don't now.
Soon there will be enough Russians there for Pootin to come and liberate them.
Same story globally, Californians moving to Montana, Idaho, Colorado, etc.. it is impossible to find affordable housing, and pretty states become millionaires' playgrounds.
Is what is happening in my country for ages now. Russians came and brought their laundry money in Cyprus and rents skyrocketed. Especialy now with the mobilisation.
If the current situation in Turkey were in any European country, a civil war would break out.
