When looking at buying a property in Turkey, what do you look for?  A huge percentage of people buying a holiday home would like a sea view.  There is nothing better than waking up, opening the blinds and seeing the vast expanse of a beautiful blue sea.

Although some coastal properties that have a sea view are a premium price that is not always the case.  In Alanya for example, there are many fantastic villas for sale which are built slightly further back from the seafront but in an elevated position giving you fabulous panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. 

 In the Lara area many of the apartments for sale will also have a sea view selling at affordable prices.  You will find although the coast road is lined with fabulous hotels, slightly further back there are many fantastic apartments for sale on complexes with all the facilities you would expect to find in a hotel but these have fabulous views over the sea and this area attracts many property buyers as a popular area, well positioned for the airport and the city with good transport links.

Another area that is relatively new when looking to buy property in Turkey is the area of Mersin, as this is relatively undiscovered when looking for property, there are few hotels so the coastline is free for construction of properties and here you can find cheap property for sale and still get a sea view.

Buying a property as a rental investment property with a sea view is also worth considering as many holidaymakers look for this when seeking a rental holiday home.  You can earn a good rental income off a villa with a sea view, areas are usually in great locations with all the amenities that people on holiday look for when renting a property.  This gives you a great return on your investment.
