Analysis of information on the Internet
Having collected a list of several real estate companies on the Internet, proceed to a detailed study of the information. Focus on the following parameters:
Website
For an experienced real estate agency in Turkey, the official website – this is the face of the company. In just a few minutes you can form an initial opinion: is the company worth trusting? If you have a reputable company in front of you, you will see:
- large catalog of objects;
- data about management, staff with photos and contacts;
- detailed overview of the services provided;
- fresh analytical, review, news articles in the corporate blog section.
In addition, the website of serious agencies contains registration information, details and a certificate for work activity, advanced training diplomas and awards.
Customer reviews
We recommend searching the Internet for reviews of the work of agency employees. It is important to analyze the information correctly. Therefore, pay attention:
- who wrote the review – is it a real buyer or is it a customized review of competitors (comments published, for example, through a personal account on a social network are credible);
- the commentator himself was a client of the agency, or he shares the experience of other people;
- an analysis of a specific situation is provided, or the entire text is built around vague formulations from the “they looked at me wrong” series.
A few negative reviews among dozens of positive ones is by no means an indication that the agency does not deserve your attention. Everyone who works and improves stumbles. In this case, it is not the fact of the error itself that is important, but how the company reacts to it. Attacking a commentator or formal replies are unacceptable. Correct, reasonable and timely answers – a sign of professionalism and reliability.
Social networks
All reputable and successful companies have official pages on social networks. Firstly, this is part of the agency’s image, which allows you to show all the benefits of cooperation. And secondly, competent SMM marketing on Instagram, Facebook, Telegram or YouTube makes it possible to increase the target audience, increase the trust factor and attract potential buyers.
When viewing pages on social networks, pay attention to the quality of content, the activity of communication with subscribers, and the frequency of updating information.
Staff
Serious real estate agencies in Turkey – These are companies where the staff includes not only sales managers, but also lawyers, financiers, a certified translator, and a secretary. Highly specialized specialists guarantee a successful solution to any problem, be it a profitable investment, property management or registration of citizenship.
Range of services provided

Organization of a sightseeing tour
The organization of Introduction tour to Turkey to view suitable property options is undertaken by real estate companies . As a rule, all expenses, except for the purchase of tickets, are paid in whole or in part by the agencies. We are talking not only about meeting you at the airport, but also about accommodation in comfortable apartments, city tours, and expert consultations. If the company’s specialists approached the meeting responsibly and fully completed the stated services, this indicates their professionalism and seriousness. Please remember that the inspection tour does not obligate you to purchase the property.
Trip to the office
Invitation to the agency office – a mandatory part of the study tour program. If you are dealing with a reputable company that cares about its own image, the office will delight you with a convenient location, good designer renovation and impeccable order.
Professionalism of employees
