Rechtlicher Hinweis
The Tapu is the official Turkish title deed — the document that proves property ownership. The type of Tapu matters: Kat Mülkiyeti (full condominium ownership) is the most secure for buyers. Kat İrtifakı (construction servitude) means the building is not yet fully completed legally. Always ask your lawyer to verify the Tapu type before signing anything.
