Can Multiple People Own a Property in Turkey? How It Works in 2025
In 2025, Turkey’s real estate market continues to attract investors from around the world. One of the common questions asked by buyers and investors is:
Can more than one person legally share ownership of a property in Turkey?
The answer is clear — yes, joint ownership is legally allowed and quite common, and there are several ways to do it safely and effectively.
1. Shared Ownership by Shares (Ortak Tapu)
This is the most common method, where the property is officially registered in the Land Registry (Tapu) under multiple owners.
Each investor’s share is clearly stated in the official title deed, and these shares can be equal or based on the amount of investment contributed by each party.
Every co-owner has the right to sell, transfer, or inherit their share independently. However, it’s highly recommended that all partners sign an internal agreement defining how management, maintenance, or sale decisions will be handled to avoid disputes in the future.
2. Ownership Through a Joint Investment Company
In 2025, this structure has become increasingly popular, especially among foreign investors.
In this model, a joint investment company is established, and the property is registered under the company’s name. Each investor then owns shares in that company proportional to their investment.
Key advantages of this model include:
-
Easy transfer or sale of ownership shares without changing the property title.
-
The ability to manage multiple properties under one corporate entity.
-
Legal protection and flexibility for foreign investors.
-
Simplified entry for new partners or investors.
