Property Management

Buying property in Turkey is just the first step. The real challenges begin afterwards: who to trust with the maintenance of your apartment, how to organize rentals, and who will handle everyday and legal matters? This is why property management in Turkey becomes a key requirement for most foreign owners.

One of the popular services among owners is trust management, where a professional team takes care of the property. In this article, we will explain what property management entails, its advantages, and why, with New Level Group, you can be confident in the results.

What is Property Management in Turkey

Property management in Turkey is the comprehensive organization of all processes related to the operation, maintenance, and rental of residential or commercial property.

For residential complexes (condominiums), property expertise and management include organizing and overseeing the operation of infrastructure, technical support, legal administration, financial services, and interaction with tenants. Turkish legislation guarantees owners active participation in management, often implemented through a property management company or developer.

Property management includes the following tasks:

  • Maintenance of infrastructure and common areas: pools, elevators, sports and children's playgrounds, security systems, landscaping, and other infrastructure through kapıcı (caretaker), staff, or contractors in Turkey.
  • Renting apartments for guaranteed lease: signing rental agreements, searching and screening tenants, collecting rent.
  • Payment of taxes and utility bills.
  • Technical maintenance and repairs: regular checks of engineering systems, scheduled work, emergency repairs, cosmetic and major renovations, technical supervision, and more.
  • Administrative and legal support: organizing and conducting annual meetings of owners, keeping minutes, staff selection, signing contracts (with utilities, contractors, security).

It is important to note that property management is a professional activity aimed at maximizing the comfort of residents, preserving the value of the property, and maintaining the internal infrastructure in working condition. Automating these processes through a specialized organization for foreign owners is a practical necessity.

New Level Group Services: Full After-Sales Service

A reliable partner capable of taking on all property management obligations in Turkey is New Level Group. As a developer in Alanya, we not only build modern residential complexes, but also provide our clients with full after-sales service focused on maximum comfort and investment return.

Our core services include:

  • Property maintenance: monitoring, repairs, cleaning.

New Level Group’s management company regularly conducts technical inspections of properties, monitors the condition of finishes, furniture, equipment, and all engineering systems on-site. If necessary, we organize routine or major repairs, preventive work to ensure the proper functioning of air conditioning systems, electricity and water supply, and other services.

Owners can be sure that even during their extended absence, their apartment will remain under control. Cleaning is also part of the services: either regular or deep cleaning before the arrival of the owners or tenants.

  • Utility payments and site management fees.

Utility payments in Turkey are made regularly, so this process requires monitoring. As part of New Level Group's service, monthly payment of water, electricity, internet, and site maintenance fees (aidat) is available. All expenses are recorded in the accounting system and are available to the owner in a convenient format.

  • Documentation support.

The New Level Group team takes care of preparing payment reports, communication with municipal authorities, banks, service companies, reminding owners to complete paperwork and take necessary actions — in other words, managing all matters related to property ownership and residence in Turkey.

This way, the client receives not just a service, but a sense of complete security and order — regardless of whether they are in Turkey or abroad.

Trust Management and Renting

Trust Management and Renting

For buyers who see their Turkish property as an investment asset, the primary goal of ownership is to generate stable rental income. In these cases, trust management of the property by New Level Group is the optimal solution.

New Level Group’s experts take care of all processes related to renting out the apartment in Turkey on behalf of the owner. The owner doesn’t need to look for tenants, advertise, organize viewings, or manage booking schedules. All of this is handled by a team with experience and resources.

As a result, owners are guaranteed minimal risks, no household worries, and complete transparency in financial matters.

For us, the security of your investment is a top priority. That’s why, before renting out the property, we:

  • Screen tenants for reliability;
  • Sign legally sound, official rental agreements;
  • Monitor the fulfillment of all rental conditions.

The entire process complies with Turkish law and eliminates any legal or financial risks for the owner.

After tenants move in, as part of the guaranteed lease, we ensure professional property management and stable profit generation. Our responsibilities include:

  • Meeting and checking in tenants;
  • Monitoring the condition of the property;
  • Organizing cleaning between arrivals;
  • Prompt response to any technical issues.

The owner receives regular reports on income and expenses, and rental payments are received on time and in full. As a result, the apartment works as an investment tool — generating regular income with no involvement from the owner

Short-Term and Long-Term Rentals: Features

Property rental in Turkey can be either short-term or long-term. The main difference between the two lies in the duration of the stay. Short-term rentals are considered to be those lasting up to 100 days. Long-term rentals are for more than 100 days, often chosen by expats and students.

In recent years, Turkish legislation has significantly tightened requirements for short-term rentals. As of January 1, 2024, a special license from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism is required for legal short-term rental activity. This license is issued only with the consent of all owners in a multi-apartment building, and a sign must be placed on the building’s facade confirming the rental is officially permitted. If an owner rents out more than five properties in the same building, they must register a legal entity. Additionally, each guest must be registered with the police, similar to hotel registration. It should be noted that illegal short-term rentals today carry high fines — up to 500,000 TL for violations.

Long-term rentals remain less regulated and much easier to manage. To arrange a long-term rental, an official contract with the tenant is enough, and no additional licenses are required.
In this regard, owners of apartments in New Level Group residential complexes are in a favorable position. All of the company’s properties are fully ready for short-term rental and have the necessary documents. This means the buyer won’t need to deal with bureaucracy — they can immediately start legally renting out their apartment and generating income without hassle. In the face of increasing state control, this readiness becomes a significant competitive advantage.

Guaranteed Rent from New Level Group

Guaranteed rent is a collaboration model that allows property owners to receive a fixed income from renting out their apartment in Turkey, regardless of the season, occupancy, or external factors. New Level Group offers this exact scheme to its clients — with full support and transparent terms.

The essence of guaranteed rent is that the developer commits to paying the owner a pre-agreed amount every month or quarter. Even if the apartment remains vacant and tourist traffic drops, the income remains unchanged. This is particularly important during the off-season or periods of instability in the short-term rental market. The owner does not need to look for tenants, monitor booking calendars, or manage the administration — all of this is handled by the developer's management team.

The main advantage of guaranteed rent from New Level Group is the assurance of real passive income without effort or time investment. The investor knows exactly how much they will receive and can plan for profitability. Furthermore, the contract may provide the owner with the right to use the apartment personally during certain times of the year — for example, two weeks in the summer or off-season. This way, the property remains available for personal vacations without harming the investment model. This is the ideal solution for those who want to invest in real estate with minimal risks and maximum return.

Rental Taxes in Turkey

Rental income in Turkey is taxed on a progressive scale — rates range from 15% to 40%, depending on the annual income. The following data is relevant for 2025.

Annual rental income (TRY)Tax rate
up to 158,00015%
158,001–330,00020% on the amount exceeding 158,000
330,001–1,200,00027% on the amount exceeding330,000
1,200,001–4,300,00035% on the amount exceeding 1,200,000
Above 4,300,00040% on the amount exceeding 4,300,000

Additionally, Turkey provides a tax-free minimum: owners of private residential properties whose rental income is below 47,000 TRY annually do not need to declare this income. Legal entities pay a fixed rate of 23% — regardless of the profit amount.

Owners are required to file an annual tax return and pay the due tax. They can deduct management, repair, utility, and insurance expenses from their income.
Reliable property management from New Level Group includes not only technical maintenance but also full tax support:

  • Preparation and submission of the annual tax return on behalf of the owner;
  • Calculation of the tax amount with all allowable deductions;
  • Timely payment within the established deadlines;
  • Provision of detailed reporting with documents — payment receipts, copies of declarations, etc.
