The Turkish Statistical Institute, having published data on housing sales in the Republic of Turkey for the second month of 2023, also presented the traditional rating of TOP-20 states whose citizens purchased the most lots - apartments and detached houses.
The top three have remained unchanged for many months: These are Russia, Iran and Iraq. But this time Israel also got into the "twenty leaders".
Here are the exact numbers:
RF - 1183 housing transactions;
Iran - 448 deals;
Iraq - 173;
Ukraine - 142;
Kazakhstan - 133;
Germany - 124;
China - 85;
Kuwait - 73;
Azerbaijan - 73;
Afghanistan - 69;
Saudi Arabia - 62;
USA - 54;
England - 43;
Palestine - 41;
Egypt - 36;
Jordan - 34;
Pakistan - 33;
Yemen - 32;
Sweden - 30;
Israel - 28.

The share of housing purchased by foreigners in Turkey fluctuates around 4-5% of the total; this is quite a lot, given that non-citizens cannot apply for social housing.
