RIGHT TIMING FOR HOUSING PURCHASE REQUIRES STRATEGIC CALCULATION
Yalçın Artukoğlu, Chairman of the Board of SOA Holding, one of Turkey's leading investment and project development groups, shared his evaluation of the first half of 2025 for the construction and real estate sector. Artukoğlu provided important advice especially for individuals planning to purchase housing, explaining the process and expectations the sector is in.
Recalling that serious increases in housing prices were experienced in 2024 with rising construction costs, financing difficulties and contraction in housing supply, Artukoğlu said: "We started 2025 with a more balanced picture. With the regulations taken by the state and the restructuring of the banking system, a more predictable structure began to form on both the producer and consumer sides."
Sharing his views on the right timing in housing purchase, Artukoğlu said: "Interest rates are expected to decrease gradually, but this process will not be sudden, but spread over time. Therefore, when our citizens make housing purchases, they need to focus not only on prices, but also on payment conditions, regional development and the reliability of the contractor."
Developing Regions Offer Important Advantages for Investors
Yalçın Artukoğlu, stating that developing regions still offer great opportunities for those who think long-term investment, said: "Infrastructure investments are increasing in provinces such as Ankara, Konya, Kayseri, Balıkesir. With the effect of transportation projects and industrial zones, these cities will make serious premiums within 3-5 years. An investment made in the right location today will be tomorrow's earnings."
Artukoğlu stated that as SOA Holding, they are preparing to announce a total of 4 new projects including residential, commercial and mixed projects in the second half of 2025. "We closely analyze consumer needs and produce sustainable, aesthetic and accessible projects. Trust comes before everything for us," he concluded.
